All of this… it could have been stopped. We don’t have to love (or even like) the Democrats, but it was such an important election, and everybody was screaming to vote against fascism. Well, a lot of people couldn’t be bothered, and it’s here now. Hope our country survives this administration…

It’s in part because Biden ran on opposing fascism, got elected, and then did nothing to oppose fascism. He sold himself as a dragonslayer, but once he got in, he didn’t want to upset the pro-dragon crowd.

So, yeah, when his protege ran the exact same campaign, it didn’t instill a lot of confidence.

That is a really stupid reason to let a fascist win though. Like, why should I respect or align myself with such a stupid group of people?
If your only options are the fascist or the guy who promised to bring the fascist to justice but actually didn’t even try, then your problem isn’t getting solved by voting in that election.
Maybe if you stopped viewing every single election as “this one has to solve everything”

It’s not “this one has to solve everything” so much as “this one needs to even demonstrate an attempt at the promises given.”

In 2016 Obama ran on codifying Roe v. Wade, but once he was in office? “It’s not the time.” The DNC has been lying to progressives since before I could vote.
