    The ultimatum posed to me was democracy vs god emperor, in this context it is clearly putting democrats as the democratic option and republicans as the theocratic authoritarian option.

    Me saying in response:

    democracy (fascism lite) vs fascism

    Is not me saying democracy is fascism, its me saying the two options both look like fascism from outside the US.

      Ahhh that makes a lot of sense now.

      I want to make my position on this part clear:** there’s no defending the DNC for supporting a genocidal apartheid state.**

      But like it or not, the DNC is demonstrably far better on LGBT rights, women’s rights, minority rights, and voting rights in the US. They could look similar to you, but with the DNC there is actually a path forward to be better.

      And also like it or not, Trump will do nothing good for Palestine. Trump fucking hates brown people, he hates Muslims, the situation will get worse for everyone in the middle east and for women and minorities in the US. And long-term, if you all think America is racist and imperialist now, when cristo-fascists take over and really turn America into a white Christian empire that launches a religious crusade against the rest of the world, y’all will realize how good you had it when it was just the neolibs being greedy for money.
