    Are you just going to ignore the racist and xenophobic talking points by Harris about how immigrants are bringing fentanyl to kill US citizens? Or Harris bringing up the factually incorrect claims about Hamas members and Palestinian men sexually assaulting Israelis, based on racist colonial tropes. Or how Harris was a top prosecutor that spent her entire career locking up minorities. I could go on and on, the entire debate consisted of the candidates trying to outdo each other with the amount of racism they were spewing.

            Is “comrade” supposed to be an insult? People aren’t embarrassed that they’re Communists.

          Oh come on, it’s a false equivalence on its face. How many other options are there?

        All trumpanzees so obviously need to be rounded up and shot that it’s not even worth mentioning. It’s libs like you that need to be called out for trying to use faux progressivism to justify the exact same shit trumpanzees want.

        Edit: Lol some lib responded to this comment and blocked me before I could see it and now there’s a big argument in the replies.

          As opposed to the very authentic progressivism of rounding up and shooting political opponents?

              If you can’t reach your ideal democracy without executing dissidents, that’s not democracy.

                ‘Dissidents’ like they’re some powerless minority being oppressed and that their dissent isn’t over the value of human life. This is why we say that liberals are the same as fascists. “Sorry freemen, if we crack down on the whites killing you and passing black codes, it’s just not a democracy!”

                  Ah yes, peak anti-fascism: declaring your political opponents to be monolithically evil to justify their execution. Half of all American voters are subhuman scum that must be cleansed to bring about democracy.

                    In a conversation talking about nazis and klansmen:

                    declaring your political opponents to be monolithically evil to justify their execution

                    but don’t you see the good side of the nazis??

                If you can’t stop a genocide electorally, that’s not democracy.

                  You can, if you stop abstaining or voting third party out of protest. You can’t blame the electoral system for being ineffective if you don’t use it right.

                    How? Both candidates support genocide, is there an option on the ballot to dismantle the genocidal US Empire?
