    It’s not going to actually ever get any easier and the longer we wait the harder it will be.

    So you’re concerned about it getting harder, but advocating for actions that increase the likelihood of it getting much harder, much more quickly.

    Make it make sense.

      These accelerationists in this thread are the dumbest people on the left who don’t care about the oppressed sympathetic to their views and are directly in harms’ way if things get worse, because they want to gamble on a violent revolution that will nebulously make things better w/o any plan.

      The stupidity is almost humorous.

        The DNC isn’t in fighting shape and the longer they’re propped up, the worse they’ll do against the GOP every cycle, which only emboldens the GOP to do crazy shit because the opposition party isn’t a threat to them no matter what they do.

        So again, it sounds like your concern is the GOP being emboldened to do crazier shit. So the solution is to hand them the presidency and the freedom to do all the crazy shit they want.

        Make it make sense.

            Had Trump won in 2020, he’d be about to be term limited out and the blowback from Dobbs, his inflationary monetary policy, and Gaza would have fallen in his lap, putting the GOP in a worse position this cycle than they currently are.

            Cool fanfic.

            Now he’s going to come back, bigger and angrier than ever

            Only if you guys get your way.

            Kinda wild how the narrative you guys prop up has moved from “both sides are the same” to “actually if Trump had won in 2020 that would have been better”

            The mask is really coming off.

                You keep talking like the only options are to hand the election to Trump and have the fight under that political landscape, or vote against Trump then suddenly not have that fight at all.

                That’s simply not how it works.

                You can muse about these things all day, but like I said, one of 2 outcomes is possible this November.

                If you’re going to have this fight, one of those outcomes will make it significantly harder to have.

                I’m just commenting that I appreciate you being the one to actually discuss points in this thread. I agree with the other guy, but I’m praising efforts here.
