You have no opposition party in America, your two party system also is a huge problem. In this way fascism will always win.

Exactly. And you have people like me who refused to vote for Democrats because while they might not be as horrible as Donald Trump, there is still too much wrong with them for me to support them. I get called a Tankie bot whether I don’t vote or I vote third-party so fuck the DNC

Correct. This is a major problem. The point is that it wasn't made by the people, and the few of us who understand how problematic it is can't simply make a new party and have it be successful. That doesn't fix the two party system. America is a shit show, but some of us are doing what we can, and that isn't enough but that's not our faults.

Exactly, so why are you blaming people if its not our faults? You are the one debating in defense of blaming people, voters, and non voters alike.

I'm not doing that. That's not what's happening. If you interpreted it that way, that is unfortunate. However, I am not, in fact, blaming people. Non voters couldn't have fixed this. Voters couldn't have fixed this. No one is being blamed. Except I'm kind of blaming you for not understanding what I said. But only kind of, and mostly as a joke.
