    I know that the US voting system is a crap and that there don’t exist a real keft party, Democrats there are a conservative neoliberal party and Republicans are direct a Fascist one. But even so between the bad and the worse, voting the worse don’t make sensem less if it is done for the second time. Anyway for me as an European it’s impossible to understand why this criminal asshole is in the WhiteHouse and not in Jail since tears ago. In the last US election you could hear out of the US worldwide the sound of a violent facepalm.

      leftists aren’t really voting for trump though. most leftists i know vote for the lesser evil, but with the consciousness it ain’t doing much.

      the way fascism coopts the masses and capitalism lets it, thats literally fascism running its course. its been documented throughout history.

      it comes up when capitalism is in crisis and the people aren’t aware of the class war being fought against them. part of that comes from thinking politics is just voting for the lesser evil.

          they are a part of it, but think mainstream media in general. including hollywood, big tech and shit.

          there is a reason the burgeoise owns most media.
