    Look into how democracy falls to fascism. One of the common traits is the far left and the center left fighting each other while a unified right takes control.

      And you choose to contribute to it instead of letting leftists have a turn after 50 years of stagnation.

      I’m done coddling the Neoliberals.

        There are two choices here. Cooperate with Neoliberals, or be ruled by Fascists. There is no third option. Neither the left nor Neoliberals have the numbers to beat them alone.

          Yeah we did that already in 2016 and 2024 and it failed miserably

          It’s time for you to sit down shut up and vote with leftists this time.

              I voted for Obama, he was pretty good

              I voted for Bernie, then grit my teeth and voted for Hillary when the DNC rigged their own primaries that they afterward admitted to.

              Then I voted for biden

              Then Kamala

              This year is the first year I will 100% refuse to vote for another milquetoast Neoliberal that will ensure nothing will meaningfully change.

              This year the neoliberals get to decide if we have democracy or facism.

              Either help us end the Duopoly or get out of the way.

                  A slow and steady decline is not sustainable.

                  The can is at the end of the road.

                  It’s time for non establishment leadership.

                    I agree a slow steady decline is not sustainable, but it is reversible in time. If fascism takes full control, there will be no more democracy, no more elections, and no more chance to change without massive bloodshed.
