"uh I didn't vote for the fascists, I voted for the party that tolerates the fascists, failed to put up any kind of real opposition to the fascists, and lost an election to the most obviously incapable candidate of all time . . . And who then handed power over peacefully to the fascists while spewing platitudes about how important it is to work peacefully with the fascists. And who also have 95% of the same goals as the fascists just with a progressive coat of paint. And that is totally different and makes me the adult in the room" you would have been totally on board with appeasement.

Hey dawg I don't care how you slice your genocide support, only that you eat it

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip -2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't support genocide, at least not actively, but I'm not delusional enough to think the Republicans are the lesser of 2 evils.
