I'm not sure how much farther the mask can slip before people emphatically and definitively vote third party. I'm not sure I want to know.
Well you can have a party full of literal fascists and people will still vote for them before considering a third party. If you have any hope of a third party taking any amount of control, I could use some of it. Sadly, third parties are mostly just spoilers for the opposition these days though.
I agree that Republicans are going full-fascist (even more than they were in the past), but if the establishment Democrats are clearly more willing to hand Republicans control than change themselves or lose control of the party, are they really any better? Nazis vs Nazi Collaborators isn't much of a choice. I would have said that was hyperbole in the past, but the centrist Dems covering for Israel is making it pretty on-the-nose.
Nah both parties suck. One's fascists, the other's just a complete mess. Still, says a lot that people would rather vote in the fascists.
