      Yeah, but if the dems aren’t progressive enough I won’t bother to get up off my ass to vote to stop fascism. It’ll be the dems fault for not enticing me to vote.

        Seriously asking, what is progressive enough? Would you vote for AOC? Is it a matter of FPTP support, or genocide, or strike solidarity?

        Call me naive but I think Mamdani is the shape of things to come and we’re going to start seeing much better candidates.

        So you’re not willing to do the bare fucking minimum to oppose the current administration, and want to blame other politicians instead of using the best tool we currently have in a democracy. Got it.

            Then them being misunderstood is on them. There’s nothing in that comment that shows they’re being sarcastic. Poe’s law

              Sure, you’re not wrong. But I think the way the language is used makes it at least possible, and if you look at their other comments, it makes it clear.

              Saying outright “it’s the democrats fault that I won’t get off my ass to stop fascism” just really smacks of satire.
