    And since 03 or earlier, conservatives in America have been consolidating their power to achieve what they have now. Supreme Court dominance enough to undue decades and decades of progress. But yes, pretend these people weren’t right all along. This time, you can safely vote third party , or stay home, probably nothing bad will happen.

      Excuse me? Why don’t you say that again in a way that’s not, you know, doing EXACTLY what I just accused you of?

      You do realize, of course that “These people who were right all along” are either people like me pointing out that Biden fucking sucks… or the ones that ALLOWED all that to happen- namely the milquetoast “moderates” that have allowed the overton window to consistently shift right while fearmongering that a progressive candidate is actually impossible. (because, you know, it’d really suck for their corpo masters if progressive gained any sort of headwind.)

      You ever consider that perhaps people are and have been paying attention, which is why they won’t vote Left this time? ¬¬
