Try and parse a bit of reality. By enabling fascism by voting for it or refusing to vote against it you make the situation worse for both those in Palestine and also remove your ability to vote out the person doing this.

And here's you going on about eggs.

Voting for a corporate Dem IS voting in favor of fascism.

Corporate Dems know that the only path they ever have to power is if the alternative is Republican autocracy. They're too unpopular on their own to have any way of winning an election based on their personality or positions. They can only win by fear. Thus, they cannot actually dismantle fascism. They can't pass reforms stripping the presidency of emergency powers to prevent it from being abused. They can't launch a law enforcement crackdown to finally put MAGA in the ground. They need MAGA. They want MAGA. They need a giant monster standing behind them to terrify the populace into voting for them. That is the only way they can possibly win an election. In fact, they have every incentive to make that monster as big and as terrifying as possible.

Voting for a centrist Dem guarantees eventual holocaust. The Fascists will just keep becoming more extreme and violent, even when the corporate Dems are in power. The occupants of the White House will alternate between Fascists and corporate Dems, moving further to the right each cycle. Eventually they'll start killing people by the millions. Centrist Dems are unable to prevent this. They need fascists in order to get in to power.

No, you were just a genocide denier when it was your team doing it.

also remove your ability to vote out the person doing this.

Your whole complaint is that people didn't vote for the people doing this.

don't bother with that person. Americans can't understand it, the whole country is corrupted and evil to its roots. And don't even bother trying to explain an american what anarchism is all about or they'll collapse on their own like this guy did

American exceptionalsm is so freaking annoying, dealing with it first hand trying to get people to realize we're not actually the good guys and we aren't actually the best is exhausting.

Seriously the majority of people here are ignorant to the world at large and brainwashed.
