    Even if that were the case, which it’s clearly not, wouldn’t it be better to move slowly towards full-on fascism than speed run it?

    What is with all the both-sidesing and accelerationism on here in the last few weeks? Some of you all are either too young or too privileged to remember what living under Trump was really like, and he’s been abundantly clear that his next term will be far worse.

    You won’t find very many enthusiastic Biden supporters, but I’d much rather have four more years of this than four-plus more years of Trump with a grudge and nothing left to lose.

      Lotta Libertarian “Centrists” who think they’re smart and that they have a choice. They think they will be able to die on the single-issue-hill of Biden’s policy stance on Israel and still retain the ability to vote in five years.

      Fortunately, as evidenced by most of the comments here, they’re still squarely in the minority, and I’ll never stop pointing out how bad their arguments are.
