Assuming Trump doesn’t make himself President for life, the Democrats should be drawing up plans to radically reverse all the damage he has done and be prepared to have the fascists from the criminal Trump administration arrested. They can’t be allowed to get away with what they’re doing.
The time to do that was 2020-2024, honestly. They had power. Now they’re having to fight the whole fucking thing uphill, and of course Trump is going to make himself president for life.
They should try to recover us to a democracy, IDK what the fuck the alternative would be. But the time to put Trump in custody was January 2021. Now we’ve got the exact same fight on our hands that that would have caused, but they get to be inside the castle shooting out.
they tried to use overt fascism as a threat against us to get us to accept another decade of neoliberal fascism. well jokes on them, we’re very stupid, those kinds of threats won’t work on us, we’ll pull that overt fascism lever, apparently
None of the neoliberals wanted to “use overt fascism” as a threat of anything. They just want to sit back and get paid, and don’t really care, most of their campaign materials (according to the super-experts in this comments section at least) are trying to imitate the fascists. None of their campaign materials or public statements even seemed to recognize that fascism was something at all dangerous in any way.
The thing of “oh isn’t it convenient that I have to vote for the non fascist if I don’t want fascism, well fuck you I think you’re trying to trick me” is a super popular and very effective propaganda thing designed to trick people into letting the fascists come to power, though. The overall pitch is to make it sound like “it is urgent not to let fascists come to power” is some kind of clever ruse, and can be discounted.

This. It isn’t so much “both sides should be cheating,” it should be “cheaters are not allowed to play.”
