To be clear, I am only talking about people like the average working class Trump voter. The ones who just got caught by misinformation, and just haven’t been able to find a way out. Trump and all his mates are terrible people, and should be held accountable.
The average voter is another thing. My attitude is that I got lucky, and found out that Trump and his mates are terrible, instead of getting sucked down a rabbit hole of supporting them. Knowing how fascism works, I don’t know if I’d be able to reliably land on the right side if fascism happened in my home country. And if I don’t believe I could reliably spot fascism, I’m not comfortable acting like those who support Trump could have.
This isn’t a discussion of “just be a good person”. I know plenty of amazing, caring people who believe they’re doing the right thing.
This whole idea of “I can’t say is reliably avoid fascism” is based on this, the school that became fascist for a week. As bad of an experiment that was from that teacher, it was an effective way of teaching how people fall for what should be obviously a bad thing.
You clearly do give a fuck about the Democrats, given this whole conversation was started by you defending their genocide. and no, supporting genocidal right wingers doesn’t’ make you “anti-fascist.”
I support whoever is least shit of the options. Clearly you enjoy watching Palestinians getting murdered and Ukrainians for that matter. I’ve said my piece. Choose to listen or not. IDGAF.
Just know that whatever happens next is your fault. So if Russia takes half of Europe, that’s on you. If Israel gets the green light to nuke the west bank, that’s on you. If your navy is used to exterminate the indigenous Greenlanders, that’s on you. If LGBTQ people are rounded up and jailed (or worse), that’s on you. If migrant families are torn apart by ice, that’s on you too.
You claim to be left yet you have a bizarre hard-on for fascists. Fucking sort out your life.
