I guess to be fair I was never really a stickler for any particular method; I’m just a lot more open to a lot of them.

I think a decent country should label the systematic killing of hundreds of thousands of people as alarming and a sign of an evil political system at work. A difference in scale would still be a tragedy but you couldn't really say that extermination is milquetoast centrism in reasonable company. If your country is throwing people in a meat grinder, to use your words, you're already in a point where it would be appropriate for someone to ask:

What rise? The country has been fascist since before anyone here was born. Those fascists have been enabled by people like you cheering on politicians while they put people in concentration camps at the border, strip away basic rights such as abortion while never even allowing others like healthcare, and outright commit genocide. Be honest with yourself: you don't hate Trump because he's a fascist, you hate him because he's not a "polite" fascist.

Yes we're living in the worst timeline. You are attacking the people interested in triage and shouting about the better world you would like to see in the future. so fucking self centred.

I'm not attacking anyone. You're getting all angry at a person for pointing out that we already turned on the meat grinder centuries ago. I think it actually matters that people not treat Trump as an anomaly that can be neutralized by dealing with him as a single person. Going back to what preceded this guy will not be fixing the problem.

Ah yes I'm "angry", last resort of the desperate. You have lost my interest.

You literally came out swinging at someone who said what amounts to things you have conceded talking with me. You called the genocide milquetoast centrism. I don't know what else to call that.

Brunch WILL be served. Order will be restored once we peacefully return to the marginally slower rate of systematic killings of the centrists.
