      Fascism wins regardless

      No. But for discussion purposes, I’ll pretend what democrats do is fascism.

      our votes determine who is victimized by that fascism

      Also no. Or just barely. If you’re a victim of the system, which party is elected is not going to have much impact on that. Because whomever is in charge, it’s the same people enforcing the system.

      It takes a long time for the system to change. We couldn’t even prosecute most of Trump’s crimes in 4 years.

        Tell that to every person the US has dronestriked. You’re focusing on Americans as the the only victims of its fascism and assuming that fascism is entirely an internal process affecting the people living under that regime. If Trump is elected the fascism might turn inwards, if Biden is elected it will continue to brutalize millions of lives we will never see.

        Fascism wins for now, they just haven’t come for you yet
