MODERATORS
Keep voting blue and hope things change.
Take over the democratic party with actual leftists. If the fascists can do it with the GOP, we can do it with leftists/the DNC.
If history tells us anything, fascists love advertising that they're actually socialists and that you should definitely vote for them. And North Carolina got a little taste of what that might feel like last year.
That's a problem no matter how government officials are elected, and therefore irrelevant.
Sortition
In a country where 1/3rd of the country is either fascist or a fascist sympathizer? No thanks.
As opposed to the 50%+ we have in office now?
At no point have I indicated that was acceptable either.
Yes, but not only is it better than what we current have, but it goes against the whole "That’s a problem no matter how government officials are elected, and therefore irrelevant." claim you made earlier.
