The ratchet is awful, but in this moment it’s still the lesser of 2 evils.
These “both sides” arguments are like saying you refuse to walk across a shitty floor because you want to keep your shoes clean when the alternative is being fully immersed in sewage with your mouth open.
And in 2020, we didn’t elect a fucking Nazi and things were better than before and way better than now. Was the world magically made perfect? No. But it was better.
And when the current batch is kicked out, things will still be bad. It will take decades to fix what’s been broken. And that sucks. But just because the repairs are going to be slow, painful, and inefficient doesn’t mean we should just let the wrecking ball keep swinging.
You could also pay attention to democrats consistently fixing the economy that republicans leave us with, but pretending theyre the same is totally true. Rocks and turtles are both hard and definitely alive, they must be the same.
A) This person is very clearly not saying they are the same, and even provided you a visual guide explaining the difference.
B) “Fixing the economy,” always means stabilizing the stock market and lowering the deficit, but never improving the material conditions of the working class. Obama stabilized the stock market by bailing out the banks who created the financial crisis, not the homeowners facing foreclosure. Biden curbed inflation with supply-side measures instead of price control. Even Clinton responded to the H.W. Bush recession by gutting welfare and deregulating Wall Street (hell, repealing Glass-Steagall is one of the main reasons we got the financial crisis in the first place).

Meanwhile you’re still refusing to fix the pipes because the floor is clean.
You guys did this shit with Biden. And here we are.
We have literal, actual fascism here. Let’s not let perfect be the enemy of “Not a Nazi”
Again, it’s not like this wasn’t tried. You did “not a Nazi” in 2020. And it led you here.
VBNMW has been failing since it was coined in 2004. And yet people still act like they’re somehow wise in insisting on it.
And in 2020, we didn’t elect a fucking Nazi and things were better than before and way better than now. Was the world magically made perfect? No. But it was better.

So your plan is to get more Nazis in 2032?
