Public Service Announcement:

Part of the current Republican strategy is to accuse Democrats of being fascists in an attempt to make the word meaningless.

Public Service Announcement

Calling anybody left of Biden undercover Republicans and ignoring faschie moves by dems is why Democrats can't win a gdamn thing against Nazis 2: The Naziing

Of course, that's the point - Dems will take literal nazis over bucking their corporate overlords by backing a living wage, healthcare, and wealth taxes.

They're not literal Nazis. They're running against them however.

Btw, notice you're losing traction with this bullshit on here last couple weeks with the shock of Gaza subsiding?

That's fine go ahead and call leftists useless babies, I'll see you in November when you claim these useless babies handed Trump the election instead of dems for pissing on us. 😉

It's quite telling how far right you really are with how you treat Gaza as some political gatcha and not a fucking genocide.

Kids are still in cages and democrats are supporting the genocide in Palestine, yes Democrats are fascist

"We have to ignore reality because it helps the opposition to acknowledge it" sure is some rhetoric alright.
