You know, 18-24 year olds are the least likely to vote.

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL things unholy, prove me wrong…

    So just to be clear, because there is a situation where literal fascists might win (which you believe is bad… right?), you feel aggrieved at the not-actual-fascists for this scenario arising. Which is understandable! As a person in a country that is a real democratic republic, I would hate for the less-bad option to be able hold my vote hostage or be punished for a third party vote.

    But to follow the logic then that as a result you are motivated to let literal fascists win (which is… bad?)…

    To what end? To see the establishment DNC face another humiliation, which will make you feel very vindicated for 3 months… before an actual fascist assumes more power than any American president has ever had before?.. To destroy the capitalist American empire with the expectation that the American people will forget 100 years of propaganda and suddenly realise collectivism is the way to go?

      We have actual fascism in there right now. Changing the occupant doesn’t change the course of the country when they ALL answer to the same people.
