Right, fascism is all the fault of Democrats and not the fascists. /s
Did... I say that it was?
No. I didn't.
I may not have explicitly said this... but the point that you clearly are either ignoring (my assumption) or just didn't get... is that Biden is not doing enough to stop fascism. which is why, under his leadership the US is continuing to slide to fascism.
You don't win fights- be they full on battles, street brawls, or figurative fights- simply with falling back and staying defensive. if you want to win- if you want to defeat fascism- you're going to have to hit back. in politics, this means going to the opposite end, that is to say, by pushing progressive policies over the regressive policies of the fascists.
you're acting like the literal scraps you were given in '23 are "change". while it's unfair to say that Biden caused the economic problems... so far his economic policies have not translated very well into economic boons for the average person. in terms of climate change, he's done nothing except give tax breaks for corporations who were going to all those things anyhow, or subsidie the profit margin of companies like tesla.
you can't win a fight, trying to hold what you have, and I'm guessing biden (and his corporate donors,) know this. if you want to win against fascism, that means you have to go on offense... which Biden is not doing. Am I cycical? yes. am I jackass? probably. doesn't change what is. Look around and take a deep whiff. That's not coffee you're smelling.
