      Yeah, there are a lot of them on here. Ignore the past ten times electing the right-wing candidate didn’t work to sway the DNC to go left, THIS time, with Mr. Day-One-Dictator it’ll totally work out. /s

        I’m wondering if there was similar idiocy in the time of Hitler. I know there was literally a “Jews for Hitler” group, so I just bet there were more than a few lefties thinking that having Hitler in power was really going to solve something…

          Oh please you’re sitting here whining from the sidelines like everyone else.

          We have 4 options: vote Trump, vote Biden, vote third-party/independent, don’t vote. What do you want us to do come November?

            They want you to ensure Trump gets elected, of course. For some reason, that seems to be the sole goal of their very ‘original’ form of leftism.

                Why bother with that when the goal is wanting to look superior and briefly being able to tell people “told you so”. That’s before everyone is off to the camps/ovens, I guess.

                  Make your protest vote, or protest skip, or whatever. You’ll feel superior and no one else will notice.

                    I’m not the one with the protest vote. It’s you guys that are voting against something. A vote cast against something is a vote of protest

                    And I suppose your solution is keep electing the same people that got us into the problems that we have? Liberals love to try to silence dissent, infantilize anyone that disagrees with them, there’s a reason there’s a saying that starts off ‘scratch a liberal’
