How exactly is the DNC picking who they want to run fascism?
Furthermore, how is wanting to beat someone who would go on to attempt a coup, and then a couple years later say that he wanted to attempt another one and dismantle the Constitution fascism or bad?
Do you know how stupid it makes you look saying shit like that?

@ChestRockfield "How exactly is the DNC picking who they want to run fascism?" They rig their presidential primaries
I talk about all the tolerance that is preached by the Democratic party and the need to allow people to individually identify how they want, how we should be accepting of difference and bodily integrity (re abortion) is paramount.
And then we had Covid.
Compliance was demanded, dissent was not tolerated. Media was manipulated to favour the official line. People were encouraged to discriminate against those with opposing views by refusing service. Mandates etc. The Democratic stance whilst the GOP was defending individual choice. Yet the GOP are fascist.
May just be me, but I find that ironic.

@puff Even if they "rigged" their primary (which isn't really necessary because they can set any rules they want and back whomever they choose) that's still not fascism (I'm starting to think you have no idea what fascism is). Trying to overthrow the government and dismantle the constitution? Now that would be fascism. Now sure how the leader of a party openly admitting LAST WEEK that they want to perform another coup attempt and dismantle the Constitution isn't more of a priority for you than a party picking their candidate (who ended up losing the general anyway) 6 years ago. But I guess that's what you get from shills who put party over country every chance they get.

As for all your nonsense about the vaccine, there is plenty of precedence for refusing service/entry without proof of vaccination. Literally almost every school in the country has a policy on this. And the dems are still not as anti-personal-freedom as the Republicans. Even with mandates, they weren't forcing people to get the vaccine, just refusing access to things without it whereas Republicans are literally forcing women to have babies they don't want and difficult pregnancies that are killing them. Republicans will never have the moral high ground on personal freedom, so you may as well not even try with that weak ass bullshit.

First off, there is no if. It was proven both verbally by various DNC figures, the Sanders court case, and the leak. While under the context of democracy, resetting the rules, using a sector of the media as an accomplice towards agenda, manipulating results at election polling sites, especially in regards to caucuses, suppression of participation of opposition surrogates at those caucuses, creating a false flag operation towards a coverup, are indeed an aspect of fascism. Your statement is contradictory within its self and to the developed understanding of the actions and makeup found in the ideology.

I don't get the sense that Puff is fully exonerating the GOP of being fascist. It's obvious that they have fascist leanings within their political practices and associations. At the same time though, a long history has been built on proving the democrats have the same history. All one needs to do is look towards the Ukraine issue to understand this. I can't totally speak for Puff though. But for the democratic party being non-fascist is an absurdity as it has been essentially written in stone and detailed by many for decades. Even Biden's VP gave such charge during the primary debates. Only to prove herself to be one of the black elite politicians who will betray her stances for power.

Well, you and I have a long standing disagreement it seems we'll never get past, and that's that the lesser of two evils IS something I believe you need to take into account living under the system of government we live under. To me, there is a giant difference between doing any amount of shady shit to pick who you want to go to the general and trying to subvert the Constitution by performing a coup and overthrowing the government [not to mention openly admitting you want to keep trying, knowing that your party is so brimming with sycophantic assholes it won't even hurt you to say some of the most outlandish, anti-American shit any major political candidate has ever said in this country]. To be clear, this is something that the head of the Republican party already tried once and is openly saying he wants to try again. If you think both sides are equally bad because they've both done bad things regardless of qualification or quantification, then we're never going to see eye-to-eye.
