People need to feel incentivized to vote. The reality is Harris went too far in courting the right and ended up alienating a lot of progressives in the process. There were a lot of warning signs, people just didn't want to listen.

Yep, they know Trump will follow the money. And they definitely have money.

It isn't fascism when healthcare systems get overwhelmed, an unprecedented level of people are dying, and every expert was advising for the measures that were implemented (and more in a lot of cases). There were reasons these rules were put in place. And it wasn't for anyone's ego or political points.

Money only gets you so far. The unfortunate truth is Harris didn't run a campaign that incentivized people to vote. "Better than Trump" doesn't bring people to polls.

The difference is Covid was justified.

I'm not disagreeing with your sources. I'm disagreeing with you. You're the one saying these actions are fascist. And I'm telling you it's not. I suggest you do some actual reading on fascism before sitting there saying that implementing public health measure for a once-in-a-century virus outbreak that's killed tens of millions is fascism.

Trump got 2 million less votes than he did in 2020. I think this is more of a case where left-leaning people failed to show up in numbers that led for Biden's win in 2020.

I'm saying your sources are absolute shit because that's not fascism.

Your sources are absolute shit. Try harder.

Like I said, this isn't the correct example for fascism. It's very far off.

That's not fascism or the vilification of a group. It's just common sense and for the greater good. Fascism is what the US is about to have for the next 4 years under Trump. And hopefully it's only 4 years.

Bernie 2.0

Do you mean Biden 2.0?
