So we're using Bush era torture to justify inaction against fascism? Idk man seems a little weird.

I get voting isn't enough and half the problem is people often limiting their involvement in society to a ballot once every four years, but I'd really like to prevent The Palestinian Chair from being used on anyone deemed an enemy of the state by a man who is talking about deporting 11 million people.

Democrats have been wholly inactive on facsism. Weve held power for four years and should have done literally anything about the looming fascist threat instead of sitting on our hands. The fact that Trump is even on the ballot, and not behind bars, is a damning indictment of Democrats' spinelessness in the face of problems.

It should be horrifying that we've let democracy be on the ballot.
