    I want Platner to win because at least there’s a chance he’s not a fascist.

    I honestly hope it’s all bullshit, but I’m not going to just ignore red flag after red flag. I’m not going to turn my fucking brain off just because this guy paid some lip service to socialism or whatever.

      Well said. I will vote for the least likely to be a fascist candidate every time and between those elections work towards getting a better candidate. Not every candidate is gonna be perfect. Bernie could have been more explicitly pro Palestinian for example but he also would have been a better Candidate than anyone else in the past 50+ years for president. Candidates are pieces on a game board. Not your friends.

      I wish there was a better choice than 100% fascist or hopefully-not-fascist in the US…
