So we're just going to hash this out every single day for the next 2 years, huh?

Edit: I do find it interesting how many replies to this comment are vague enough that you can't determine which side of this argument they're on, but I guess I did start it myself.

And yet still in 2028 we're going to have people arguing between the milquetoast Democrat and a republican who wants to make camps for undesirables and telling anyone left of center to stay home.

The older I get the more relevant this scene from 'Life Of Brian' becomes.

The dumber the dog, the more repetitions it takes to teach it.

whether you agree with them or not, shaming and ridiculing them is not going to make them agree with you.

I agree completely. Though I personally practice harm reduction at the ballot box, I don't believe that brow-beating people who express a reluctance to vote for a lesser evil into practicing harm reduction is an effective means of garnering their vote. Though it's easy to become frustrated with non-voters or third-party voters and place the blame on them for fascism taking over, the responsibility is really spread across the whole population, and most importantly our electeds and party officials who have consistently failed to present a positive and opposing narrative to the fascists.

As long as the neo-liberal leaders of the Democrats continue to play the same games with the left as they have been since before I can vote, yes, we'll have to run into this argument every single damn time elections come up. When they decide to embrace progressive policies instead of just jigging the bait for the leftists to get their votes. When the Dems win, they didn't need the left. When they lose, it's all the left's fault. I'm not playing that sadistic little game anymore.
