    Once fascists win power democratically, they have never been removed democratically. Not once. Ever.

      And yet, we’re seeing GOP reps resigning in critical and contested seats that have been demonstrated to lean far more towards the Dems, especially when Dem-Socs are on the ticket.

      We shouldn’t just vote, but not voting will ensure we never get out of this mess.

      The MAGAts wouldn’t be trying every voter suppression trick in the book if voting wasn’t currently still a colossal threat to their power

        We forgetting that the person who replaced him was also a fascist and then Trump got reelected anyway now?

          Because people like you stayed home.

          You’re the reason for Trump, it’s your fault.

            Damn, I didn’t realize I - a non-eligible voter not living in a swing state - was that powerful. That makes it even more egregious that the Democrats didn’t try to win my vote. I personally chose who would win and they wouldn’t even not do genocide to convince me

        From another commenter: https://cmarmitage.substack.com/p/i-researched-every-attempt-to-stop

        Trump wasn’t full fascist yet in his first term. He was just getting the taste of that power.

        You could also believe the rumours that he only won the second time due to rigging and voter fraud. Something he constantly kept accusing the dems of. And we know how much he projects.

          I get it but do you actually think we won’t have elections in 2028 and that a democrat can’t win the presidency again?

          We just had midterm elections and democrats absolutely destroyed in almost all of them

          I know it’s mostly doom out there but this is absolutely not a full fascist takeover

            My bet is that this is all a propaganda campaign.

      Not once ever? Not even when Trump lost the 2020 election despite the jan6 raid on the capitol?

        Which just resulted in a different fascist being elected, and then Trump got reelected anyway?

        The government wasn’t anywhere near as fascist then as it is now.
