You could tell me that Trump will shit in a box and mail it to me, and it wouldn’t change my opinion of the guy or the election. Trump will do bad things if elected. It will be bad for Americans, bad for the world, bad for our future. Trump is an existential threat to humanity, not just because of who he is and what he will do, but because he represents the worst of humanity.
If you’re in the US, the important step is not feeling that he is awful, but being motivated to put in volunteer time and/or kick in money to stop him.
But, if you can’t do that, you’d better fucking make the time to vote next year! If you don’t vote, the nazis win.
Well, unless you’re a nazi, then don’t vote and go fuck yourself.

There are people I disagree with who aren’t fascist, but the US Republican party has gone there.

How?
Democrats: we should let minorities and women have rights
Republicans: only white Christian rich men (billionaires) should have rights. We should go back to the days where LGBT and minorities were regularly lynched. We should take them away form their families and commit genocide. (If you dont think the Trump era of when ICE REGULARLY took away children from asylum seekers / border crossers as genocide, you can’t be helped, I’m sorry…)
Democrats: let’s improve the economy for everyone. The economy is always strongest at the tail end of our presidential and the start of the next one.
Republicans: let’s make everyone who isn’t rich be forced into indentured servitude and make it illegal for people to quit their jobs. Oh and let’s cut takes for everyone who makes 10million dollars a year. Oh and let’s raise them on the people who make less than 100k a year and make things completely unsustainable for those below the poverty line and the homeless. Let’s create another economic/housing crisis and blame it on the dems. Why else do they always happens at the start of their presidencies? It can’t be our fault. It’s the demoncrats who are in charge!
Democrats: let’s improve the climate - something is clearly wrong. Climate change is real.
Republicans: climate change is a hoax! Evil democrats just want to take away your comfort of living! let’s turn the future into Wall-E. Everyone who matters can go to space/Mars! (You are not one of those people, I’m sorry to say. If you are one of the ‘lucky’ ones you will be a slave until they can replace you with a robot. Musk legitimately wants to revive company towns.you are actually in indentured servitude if you live there.)
Democrats: we should work together to face the future.
Republicans: if you are not just like me, you are against me! You are evil! No matter what you propose i will work until my dying breath to stop it! What do you mean I just stopped a clean air act? People don’t need clean air. We can just sell it. Poor people? Who Cares about them? People are only as valuable as the worth in their bank accounts. If you aren’t a paying customer, fuck off.
Democrats: its important to learn form history so we don’t repeat it.
Republican: let’s gut education. Let’s burn every book that makes us look bad or promotes diversity. We can’t have people critically thinking. If people are smart and well educated, we lose votes. We want to be a dictatorship like Russia or China! The election was stolen! The holocaust never happened!

I’m willing to chip in $50 to that guy that does that thing that we can’t openly talk about but all secretly wish.
Edit to add the obligatory /s
Does that still put you on a list?
I think the FBI may be able to figure out the cryptic meaning.
Great, not only is he a fascist, he’s a fossil-fascist
That’s an excellent phrase.
I swear, this guy is fucking monster. Bullshit that the media covers him like a serious person. The fuck is wrong with america?
I’m certainly tired of seeing SNL give him free air time. It’s like they didn’t learn their lesson the first time.
The media are owned by the same people that funnel dark money to Trump. That’s what
I mean, that seems like the least of the problems if he gets re-elected. The end of democracy in the US would be the bigger one.
Sure there are other big issues but we talk climate in c/climate
“Yea but maybe we need someone to tear it all down…”
Says the dumbest, most ignorant take ever. AKA most of his voters.
