      Only because Harris is black. A racist, sexist, classist conservative woman who spent a good chunk of her life locking up minorities for life over non violent crimes and attempting keep wrongly convicted citizens behind bars? Thatcher loves all of that.

        I particularly love how people keep recycling this line on Lemmy. Like they really think there’s this massive foreign propaganda campaign targeting a niche social media platform with thousands of users. They don’t even stop think that the corporate media platforms they’ve been using are the ones that are being manipulated by their own governments, while what they see on Lemmy might be organic discourse normal people are having.

          They’re sure working overtime to make this quote apply to not just the US, but the whole world:

          We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.

            It’s certainly been a stellar success wherever US media platforms are dominant. The power of cultural hegemony is by far the greatest weapons that the empire has.

    How dare you not support Fascism Lite™, clearly you’re racist, sexist, homophobic, you hate freedom, you hate America, and clearly you’re a Russian bot. The party demands you blindly vote for it, blindly support it, and never critique it. How else are we supposed to protect Democracy™ from The Bad Guys™?

    Biden is to the right of both.

    Thatcher saw Israel committing genocide and she imposed a 10 year arms embargo on Israel.

    Mussolini’s granddaughter, open fascist Italian PM Meloni, just announced Italy will no longer send arms to Israel

    For all that leftists insist ‘liberals always choose fascism,’ y’all seem real insistent about not stopping an outright fascist.

      It is hilarious that you think that voting for one of two fascists is stopping fascism. It’s sad that you believe Americans are actually participants in their government and not victims of it.

      Fascists do not care about democracy or voting. You cannot stop a fascist with an election. Just look to history for examples, Hitler never won an election. Neither did Mussolini. They both seized power in a crisis. Why is this important? Because even if the American election was real and not rigged (of which it is) the fascists will push the country to a crisis and take power anyway.

      There is only one way out of this for the Americans and they are refusing to take it seriously or act. It isn’t voting. I hope they can choose non violence and this looks like calling for a constitutional convention to start, the actual structure of their government is fundamentally broken and cannot be fixed with its own processes by design. The Frozen Republic by Daniel Lazare How the Constitution is Paralyzing Democracy.

      The Americans will not choose this though, they are a damaged and deeply violent society who prefer death over life and will make the wrong choice and the entire world will suffer.

    Like it’s a hard choice.

    Hey I know, let’s do nothing, and I’m sure everything will get better somehow.

      Why would you “do nothing”? Go out and organize. Writing some shit on a piece of paper won’t change anything.
