I get that reality sucks, but that doesn’t make your delusions correct :3c
edit: this is specifically about the US, hence the reference to the “liberal experiment” as it was once called. Yes, many other countries are not past the point of no return, but very few are not in grave danger.
You’re right. I should’ve focused on how you assume me saying American democracy is dead means I’m giving up. It’s an annoying ass strawman that assumes harsh statements must inspire apathy.
We need to not look to the Democrats as an ally against fascism or national politics as the focus of our efforts. We don’t “give up” resistance in any sense, just refocus our strategy to avoid mistakes the left made electorally. Non electorally, joining militias if capable, volunteering mutual aid of the basic necessities is also essential.
We couldn’t have a useful discussion when you never properly understood my position in the first place. We just continue talking past each other.
