Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I suppose, so long as you're ok with "making good on your threat" meaning living the remainder of your life in a fascist dictatorship. That's a little far for me to go to prove a point to people I've never met that probably won't even get my message.

Also, what good would teaching the Democrats a lesson do when Trump winning likely means an end to democracy.
The slide into fascism isn't stopping under a genocide supporter. At best it slows down a bit.
so, you're admitting you're an accelerationist who wants things worse sooner?
big surprise.
The democrats won't change if you don't make them. They're the ones playing with fire.
staying home on election day won't make anyone do shit bud.
But protesting, threatening and making your voice heard would. Tell them you will withhold your vote. Make sure they understand that you don't vote for people that facilitate literal genocide. The apathy of the liberal block is confounding.
YES!!!! You get it! Now use that little bit of time if you're so inclined to try to prevent a slide into fascism in whatever way you do think might work.
How do you propose that time be used then?
That's up to each person. I'm personally working on forming a local mutual aid group.
Others can do what they can or are willing to. Others may not have hope that things could be truly made better, But to those people I'd say, don't you think it's worth it to expend just the little bit of effort it takes to vote? Is there nobody in your life that you'd spend an hour's worth of effort to potentially save their lives or at least put people in office that allow them to legally use the restroom?
Make no mistake, Republicans intentionally make life difficult for minorities , risky, scary, and
