I really hate this type of rhetoric, not dissimilar to the cringe af "vote blue no matter who". It really ignores the decades long malicious attack on american consciousness itself, on truth and history. The American people are disenfranchised from political thought and economic action by design. Im not sure how much voting in america even matters at this point, the dnc capitulated HARD to fascists during the election, as is their historical prerogative (to defend capital interest), blaming the citizens just seems meaningless at this point. At a certain point you have to admit this is just what liberal democracy degenerates to every time.

Reformists try not to capitulate to fascists challenge REDUX(...again)

"this is what we voted for go team ICE" is the jist of what ive been seeing.

Conservatism is just reactionary post modernism, nothing is real but their personal visceral reaction to some event, and historical events themselves are given innate mystical properties such as things "existing in a vacuum", and the lovely "its just natural" analysis. Democrats are just really good slow walking reformists owned by capital interest.

And here come all the nuts feeling brazen about open christian nationalism in a budding theocracy.

States rights...to own slaves. Individual rights...to extract profit. Divine Federal right to smash dissent.
