    If pointing out similarities between the parties is a voter suppression tactic, then democrats should try being different from the republicans instead of kissing dick cheney’s ass and screaming that they need to move even further to the right after every election defeat. You cannot shame me for criticizing support of genocide.

      They are. But you either can’t see it, or are deliberately ignoring it because it lets you play purity tests.

      Or are you going to tell me that this upcoming fascist regime is just business as usual, just like if the Dems won? Go ahead. Say it. We all know you’re thinking it.

      You cannot shame me for criticizing support of genocide.

      How about I shame you for supporting genocide, like you’ve done through your actions, and pretending your hands are clean?

        I’m not the one sending billions in weapons to support the genocide and then telling voters “other guy worse” to justify it. You obviously think the democratic party strategy which so severely lost them the election is a brilliant strategy, so this discussion will obviously go nowhere. Have fun posting your memes about burning houses while defending arsonists (instead of being open to the suggestion of perhaps not doing arson) and feeling morally superior because the other party has more destructive arsonists.

          No, instead, you’re the one enabling the candidate to support the genocide with billions more and then telling prospective voters “More genocide and less genocide are exactly the same.”

          You still don’t take fascism seriously, because this was never a threat to you. Politics is more than a game online for some of us. But what should I expect from someone who plays apologist for Muslim-American Trump voters?
