If they try to secede this time, we should just let them fucking go.

And not voting is the greatest evil.

I’ve got a 2023 Kia Niro PHEV and I love it. The touchscreen isn’t a problem because all the basic media functions have buttons on the wheel. Voice commands work well for texts and calls. Everything else has analog buttons. The battery is only 26 miles, but that is enough to get me to and from work without a drop of gas. The only con is the battery takes up the space where the spare tire would be. There is just a foam patch kit and an air pump. I guess that is becoming more common though. My surprise favorite feature is the auto steering that helps keep you inside the lane lines. It makes long road trips significantly less fatiguing.

Chance the “Socialism” label on the bus to “Fascism” and the comic would still work.

That and it was also used to harass gay people. Cops would arrest them knowing the law wouldn’t be enforced, but getting cuffed and dragged to jail for the night makes the point.

Apparently Saudi Arabia has 441 McDonalds franchises.

I absolutely agree. That doesn’t mean whoever is picked won’t have to compromise with Neoliberals and create a unified force against fascism. Remember even the US and USSR cooperated to defeat the Nazis.

Look at the voter turnout. What you are saying is not what happened. Trump didn’t significantly lose votes in 2020, but the Democrats did. Then in 2024 democrat voting numbers went down again.

Everyone put aside their differences in 2020 and we beat Trump. Say what you want about Biden, but he was better than Trump.

I figure the world is right about where it was in 1936.

Everyone is going to have to compromise on this one. Stopping this is more important than any of our individual goals.

I’m in a very liberal city and I have seen a few of these with business logos plastered all over them. It’s like they are advertising that you shouldn’t use their business.

Everyone who is not uniting to fight against fascism is supporting fascism. There is no greater enemy.

Centrists, Neoliberals, classic liberals, anarchists, socialists, and anyone not on the right in general all need to put aside their differences and unite in defense against fascism because of fascism wins everyone loses. There will be no democracy. This isn’t an opinion. It is a fact seen over and over again through history.

I agree a slow steady decline is not sustainable, but it is reversible in time. If fascism takes full control, there will be no more democracy, no more elections, and no more chance to change without massive bloodshed.

Letting fascists end democracy is certainly one way to end the duopoly I suppose.

No, a bunch of people voted third party or didn’t vote at all as a protest.

There are two choices here. Cooperate with Neoliberals, or be ruled by Fascists. There is no third option. Neither the left nor Neoliberals have the numbers to beat them alone.

Look into how democracy falls to fascism. One of the common traits is the far left and the center left fighting each other while a unified right takes control.
