    Oh I agree. Republicans are the originators of all this shit. They are the cause for so much ill effects.

    But Democrats are supposed to be that counterbalance in a duopoly. They haven’t lived up to that. They’d rather chase after evil instead of standing up for something good.

    I’m not sure what’s worse. To use a historical example: are the Nazis worse, or are those who didn’t speak up and fight back when they could have?

      The Nazis are worse. If you analogy the Nazis are very clearly worse. It’s not even close. Yes those who didn’t speak up should have if it was safe (or at least not too dangerous) for them to do so, but the Nazis are worse. By, like, a mile.

        Nazis were 100 times worse

        Having said that, the potential these guys have in the next 4 years is to become 100 times worse than Nazis

          Than the current batch of fascists? Yeah the Nazis were worse but yours have potential. I was referring to the idea that the parent claimed that those who didn’t actively oppose the nazis were possibly worse than the nazis

      So like, is it actually impossible for Americans to recreate a left leaning party and just abandon ship on the Democrats? Why care about them at all? You guys need to start using your imaginations.
