Yeah. Sure. Blame them. They're felon rapist pedo supporters. I guarantee they don't care. They're lost causes. They're traitors to our nation. They have no shame, so blaming them doesn't do anything. You're literally just shouting into the wind.
So I'm going to speak to the people who aren't lost causes.
NO 3rd PARTY IS VIABLE AND NO 3rd PARTY IS TRYING TO BE
Our nation just got a crystal clear lesson in what happens when you don't vote or vote for a non-viable 3rd party.
Fascism. Fascism happens.
None of this crazy ass wild shit was happening when Dems were in control before January.
If you want to vote 3rd party, do it in local elections, not federal elections. It makes literally no sense to do so in federal elections. No 3rd party is putting in the work to become viable. The most popular 3rd party candidate shows up right before every election, loses, then disappears again. And she only got half of a single percent of the total votes cast.
A 3rd party president is not happening anytime soon, and probably not in our lifetimes.
So if you don't particularly like Dems either, how about you just vote AGAINST fascism?
I don't care about your feelings. I don't care about your ideals. Those don't mean anything when fascists take control. Do the intelligent thing and vote for a party that isn't bringing fascism to America and then reform it by voting out the members of that party that won't get onboard with progressive policies. Conservatives just reformed their party (into a fascist party) over the last decade or so. It's proof that parties can be reformed. And it's not the first time in American history.
Something I've wanted to convince people is that the Democrats take on a very modest role: Their job is to be slightly better than the other party; while taking money from rich donors.
When so many millions of Americans are actively okay with the Republican party being many levels of hell beyond "Dogshit terrible", then yeah, the Democrats have an extremely low bar to clear.
