    I’m comparing an authoritarian center right party to an authoritarian far right party. It’s not shit, it’s accurate, and hand waving horrible laws like the patriot act with “all countries are authoritarian to some degree” is how you end up with more legislation just like it. The Democrats aren’t going to save you. They’re just going to take the back roads on the way to fuck you.

      The Democrats are the only chance we have to change the system without violence. They are actually receptive to things like ranked choice voting and independent redistricting. If the Republicans have their way with this country, the only way out is with millions dead in a revolution.
