American Democrats try not to support a fascist agenda challenge (impossible)
I wish I had a cookie for every time a Democrat told me the concentration camps are good ackshually
Fuck your border and your president
I fail to see the contradiction tbh. It is precisely bc I am aware that the Dems are more progressive than the Republicans, that I said “I’d vote for the dems” (despite both of them serving capital).
And ofc the Dems are not leftists if we define the status quo as capitalism and leftism as the progressive opposition to the status quo (and those are the definitions I uphold).
Also I (unfortunately) am not posting from a socialist agitprop centre. I am under no illusion that my (shit)posts will destabilize anyone or anything. They are meant for other socialists and are a way of venting frustrations among other things.
tl;dr: one can recognize the Dems as the “lesser” of two evils, while still heavily criticizing the fact that the only choice is between two (or more under multi-part bourgeois “democracy”) evils in the first place…
“If voting changed things systematically, it would be illegal”
