Least deranged "centrist"
Seriously, "vote for 90% Hitler or 'only' 60% Hitler"
I don't even think Bush reached 60% Hitler if Trump is only 90%. Being a fool must be easier when you construct your own reality. 🤷♀️
If people keep on rejecting the > 60% Hitler party, then the only possible attack from < 60% which will arise.
If people keep oscillating between the two then nothing will ever change because that's what people actually want (or are convinced they want, which is the same).
It will change eventually, possibly once the country collapses into full-on fascism at this rate like Germany did.
Edit: Also, people obviously don't want 60-90% Hitler. The system is just designed to gradually shift to the right no matter what; not really a democracy.
Wow. You get it. Howdy 🤠
60m voted for Trump - these are not small numbers, it is in fact what a very large minority of people want.
Germany only reversed course because it lost a world war, that's unlikely to happen to the US any time soon or ever. North Korea, Russia, China, Saudi Arabia etc have immovable autocracies. So pretty sure your best bet is not let the country go down the Russian kleptocracy path or it's anyone's guess if you'll ever get to vote again in a way that touches the edges or how low your quality of life and freedom of expression will go.
The US lost in Vietnam. It can happen.
I feel like the word "deranged" has become the new accelerationist buzzword for when people accurately describe the stakes of a Trump presidency. You're apparently "deranged" and "psychotic" for repeating Trump's literal plan verbatim. "Heaven forbid you see reality" according to your silly ass.
What are you even crying about? I'm not saying the person twitting is the deranged one, I'm referring to those "centrist" who unironically spout the "both sides" narrative
My bad. I misunderstood you based on the follow-up comments.
Huh, I misread this as well - I assumed Biden is the “centrist”
