        I think it’s fairly obvious who the more fascist candidate is here. I think it says something that Trump is too fascist for Cheney.

        Also, shoving Stein’s words in her face doesn’t mean OP agrees with those words, just that Stein’s words are particularly problematic at the moment.

          Just my opinion, as an idiot with no marketable skills: I think the more fascist candidate is the one who attempted a coup on Jan 6.

          If I can figure it out, what’s other people’s excuse?

          Posting Stein’s tweet is a good burn, but not much more.

          Applying Stein’s logic to herself: what did she do to “earn” David Duke’s endorsement? That’s easy: she backed Palestine over Israel. Even if a racist happens to agree, that doesn’t make that stance wrong.

            Hey, did you know that 100% fascist is more fascist than 0% fascist?

            Please stop twisting words just to be annoying.

            Someone who isn’t fascist at all is less fascist than a fascist. This isn’t the gotcha you desperately want it to be.

              Someone who isn’t fascist at all

              Failed to win either major party’s nomination.

              This isn’t the gotcha you desperately want it to be.

              This isn’t a game of “gotcha”, its acknowledgement of US foreign and domestic policies. The current obsession with rounding up migrants, arming and invading sovereign nations and massacring their inhabitants, and suppressing internal dissent via police raids and congressionally-backed intimidation of college administrations is championed by both heads of the major parties.

                You failed to win the nomination, so by your logic you’re a fascist. I can’t make sense of this.

                And I thought we were talking about the two people who did win the nomination of their major party.

                This isn’t a game of “gotcha"

                You were clearly trying to pretend you caught them admitting Harris is a fascist. You can’t play gotcha and then claim you aren’t playing gotcha.

            Identifying which of the two war criminal fascist candidates for president is the better one to vote for is a good skill we should all learn because it will keep coming up in all future elections, as long as that US funded AIPAC money train keeps running on time, funding both parties.

        Yes, because they understand what a threat to their own existence Trump is. They are doing it out of self interest.

        David Duke just likes Jill Stein’s views lmao.

        You ding dongs just lazily skim headlines, post as perceived support for your argument and don’t realize that the article content just highlights how laughable your stated position is - the article that you posted basically talks about these generally horrible people tried everything they could to get on board with trump’s horseshit through their well developed deny/lie skillset… and they couldn’t. Them supporting a Harris vote speaks more to the failure of trump to state any rational coherent plan that these evil selfish cowards could get on board with. These fuckers want the USA to live so they can try to fuck it again in the future, so they endorse the adult in the room.

        republicans needs Democrats to rebuild the jenga board every other election cycle so they can have something to headbutt on their next turn. trump wants to take the already toppled board, shove a few pieces up his ass and set the rest on fire Bertie flipping the entire table. Then he wants to make you walk the floor covered in broken, flaming Jenga blocks barefoot. And during all of this, kid rock music is playing VERY LOUD.
