I love how everyone in this thread agreed to move forward and support the Dems

Replace ice cream with cocaine and that's more realistic

Can we blast the last point with a megaphone 24/7 in people's faces or is that too much to get the point across?

You would eventually "drive off a cliff" with either party, as they will softlock you into never having better choices, and the overton window will keep moving to the right. The only possibility out is to vote third party.

The United States political system is setup in such a way that third parties are an immidate non starter, a garenteed loss.

The only way out is to manipulate a party into changing its ideology like how the Christian Nationalists have been doing since the 80s.

Pugjesus doesnt seem to understand that you can elect people with a D by their name who will vote with republicans on critical votes. But hey as long as the D team wins on election day, thats all that matters I guess, right Pug?

I do agree with people voting. But the disanalogy is that in the last one both parties wanted to drive off the cliff. Neither stood against genocide.

I mean, I would presume driving off the cliff, being a self-destructive act, is a reference to fascism rather than the Palestinian genocide.

But yeah.

The analogy is wrong right analogy would have been either drive of the cliff or push a kid bound to wheelchair off the cliff.
