Yup, that makes perfect sense when you put it like that. This is precisely how Germany avoided fascism in 1930s, they just voted for the lesser evil and everything worked out great.
So what you're saying is that you know embarrassingly little about what happened in the March 1933 German federal election...
Spoiler: Hitler won because the fascists slaughtered their political enemies and seized power undemocratically.
If you think that you can avoid something like this by "not voting for the lesser evil", I don't know what to tell you. Until I have reason to believe that the election will be overthrown, I'll be cautiously looking for warning signs (there are some already), and I will vote for the party that isn't openly and proudly spewing Fascism.
Amazing counterpoint you've mustered there. Maybe read my follow up comment before making a clown of yourself?
It's funny how no matter how your sarcasm is interpreted, it's still factually wrong.
It's funny how you expose yourself as being historically illiterate. German nazis never won more than 37% of the vote while there were still democratic elections in place. First chapter here discusses the rise of fascists in Italy and nazis in Germany. Let's take a look at what actually happened.
French liberals siding with NR against the NPF is a perfect modern example of history repeating as well.
you've made a self referential comment I see
