Seriously. I chose Mussolini v. Hitler precisely because it was meant to be a reductio ad absurdum. A case where it’s so obvious one should boycott an election. Kamala vs. Trump was not Hitler vs. Mussolini. I only brought it up as an example so absurd that even the densest minds should have to admit that there are times not voting is the logical answer. But some folks are apparently so brainwashed into electoralism that they’ll keep doing it even if it is objectively meaningless. They’ll participate in a cargo cult of a democracy before they admit that voting for either side is pointless.
Yeah I got what you were going for. It’s hilarious that the other person didn’t, and actually tried to sell Mussolini as the “harm reduction” candidate. I guess you found someone denser than the densest. American schools are in desperate need of more history and civics classes.
