We need to swiftly transform No Kings from a Democratic Party spectacle to a grass roots resistance movement.

    Liberal acceptance of a lesser evil allows a slightly larger evil with each increment has led to someone to the likes of trump occupying the White House. Your less evil has resulted in incremental fascism

      That is so fucking stupid.

      A lesser evil can also lead to less evil incrementally as progress is made. What you’re arguing for is to say that people should take a lesser evil and then take EVEN LESS evil than that. Your insistence on perfection will kill people.

      I get that you want to be sanctimonious, but saving one person now is better than saving two people tomorrow, because it has the potential to also save two people tomorrow.

      Watch as I use your same logic against you: Your no evil strategy resulted in Trump, and those Palestinians are grateful that you exterminated them faster. Nice going!

      See how stupid that is?

        There has been no progress made. The only difference is Democrats keep shifting to the right with Republicans. In case you don’t know turning into first-term Trump Republicans is not progress

          Cool, you didn’t listen. You are the average ML. You should feel proud to add this to your list of accomplishments.

            I don’t believe you are capable of arguing in good faith, right off the bat you tried to accuse me of personal attacks, but that’s all that you’ve done.
