"My candidate is less fascist" isn't the flex you think it is.

Yes it is. Boolean ultimatums and ultra-idealism will always fail to make progress. Conflating Biden and Trump isn’t just dumb, it’s dangerous. It’s like having to choose between a paper cut and nuclear fallout and saying “both hurt so they’re the same; I refuse to choose either because I don’t like pain.” Well no shit Sherlock, nobody likes pain. But if you have to choose, do it, otherwise you risk others choosing nuclear fallout on your behalf. Suck it up and take the paper cut.
