    Translation: the Neoliberal (which is a center right to right wing ideology, not a left wing one) stranglehold on the state will be tightened whether voters want it to or not.

    This is NOT good. That the GOP are doing it too does NOT mean that the Dems should.

    “One person one vote unless the other team is cheating too” isn’t how you regain the trust of the electorate after a decade of helping to normalize fascism.

        When your opponent starts ratfucking their way into fascism the smart response is to start stockpiling weapons and preparing for war, not trying to outratfuck them. Or at least not just trying to play these silly political games.

        Particularly because, as fascists, they’re doing both already.

        That’s not something neoliberals could ever understand, however, so I guess we have to take this ultimately futile slide into illiberalism as another step on the inevitable decline.
