    Yeah, no. The truth matters. Especially when it comes to genocide and our leadership. This is just really round about apologia “Embrace the cognitive dissonance of supporting genocide. It’s safer for middle-class comfort.”

    This article reads like neoliberal playing a caricature of a progressive if I’m being honest.

    fixed it for them using their own words:

    [leftists] are essentially engaged in a game of chicken. They are telling [rich white men] “Run someone else, because we’re going to make sure the fascists win if you run Biden”. It’s a threat.

    And the thing about threats is, in order to work, they have to be scary. Rich white men are not scared of Trump. [the rich white men are] telling leftists in return “Suck it up and accept Biden, or we’ll make sure the fascists win”. I think I’m a lot more scared than the [rich white men are].

    Biden himself is a genocide supporter who has extended the reach of fascism within the US. Moreover, this breaks rule 2.

    This type of discourse has no place in this community. If you enjoy lies, false “democracies,” and genocidal leaders, try [email protected]

    So your basic argument is… the working class deserves to be lied to by the left in the vain hope of kicking the fascism-can down the road for four more years.

    This is what I’d like to know - if this paltry excuse of a plan actually comes to pass, will you be peddling the exact same liberal BS in 2028?
