It's shitty, but you will get one of them in power, and it's encumbent on you to vote for the obvious lesser of two evils.

If you like the Greens (or whoever else's) policies, work to fight for them the other 1,458 days of the election cycle - polling day is for buying a few more years of moribund US democracy - not for pissing away your vote and letting the fascists in.

Fascism is, as much as anything, a process of exterminating those you don't like until things collapse. Nazism will cover the sin of you not being white - but only for a while - you'll find yourself back at the front of the queue once those more "undesirable" than you are shuffled off to the camps.

...but Gatsby! and flapper dresses! and wealthy industrialists!

It's all vibes from people painfully ignorant of the time they yearn for.

...and here I am, sitting in the corner, eating my onion.

That one's on me - my bad.

Leftists and enlightened centrists unified in disdain for both parties, but knowing they've got to do their bit to stave off the rise of fascism.

Part of the problem is that for the 6 debunking it, there are 26 uncritically amplifying that statement in a flagrant act of journalistic malpractice in service of ending democracy for clicks... Not that anything would change the minds of the MAGAt cultists at this point.

I think your watch might be running a little slow, friend.

In that case, neither are Trump or Cruz with their heels.

I have a load of evidence, but also, I lied about this, and I'll do it again!

It's journalistic malpractice, materially supporting fascism, and publishing actual Nazi-tier racist tropes to uncritically report Vance's statements when he was so obviously lying, has unapologetically admitted he was lying, said he'd lie about this and similar racist bullshit again.

The media is paving the way for an end to us democracy, and a series of genocides for fucking clicks. Fucking ghouls.

It's your lucky day - I happen to run a post-rapture plant watering and pet sitting business - I'm sure as shit not getting raptured.

Everybody is just walking straight past the fact that capitalism has cucked us all badly enough that we're discussing the merits of drinking livestock products to save a few bucks?

The real tip is to ignore the daily mail.
