So we just stop and let the rest control?

Democrats already did. Fascism didn’t happen overnight. It’s been progressing for 40 years.

When Clinton passed NAFTA and ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’, and you voted for him anyway, you helped fascism take root.

When Obama had a supermajority and all he did was tack on more wars, make health care more expensive, and enrich his wealthy donors and Democratic partisans voted to reelect him anyway.

Now we’re watching Biden, who is ignoring school shootings, police violence, escalating housing scarcity, a 12% jump in homelessness, stagnant wages, criminalization of abortion, and also doing nothing meaningful to stop the people who perpetrated 1/6, and you’re going to tell me that I have to vote for this person as a moral imperative. Biden’s time is eaten up by figuring out ways to add hundreds of billions more to the war budget instead.

The kind of apathy that killed this country is the apathy of the partisans, who voted for team color and just ignored the corruption.
