    I’ll vote Democrat as long as the alternative is fascism.

    Unfortunately, much of what the Democrats represent is fascism.

      Depends on what you mean by “much”? I’d argue the Democrats, on the whole, are liberals, not fascists.

      I’d certainly prefer progressives and leftists though.

      The support for Israel whole they genocide Palestine, thought… ugh. That can certainly be viewed as fascism, although where you draw the distinction between fascism and imperialism is up for debate. Not that imperialism is good either, just saying.

        Liberals are the only people in history to vote for fascists to prevent class solidarity, and they’ve done it every time.

        If you scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds.
