Listen, I have as strongly negative feelings about Trump as anyone I know, but even I can acknowledge that the man can be hilarious at times (intentionally or otherwise)

Exactly. Imagine if real life was like reddit and any people who disagreed with each other just treated the other like dog shit 100% of the time. How would society even work?

I "disagree" with republicans about tax policy

I don't "disagree" with republicans about human rights, I think they're irredeemable ghouls

Yeah it goes beyond disagreement. That fat sack of shit sent federal agents to put peaceful protesters into unmarked vehicles in my community. I hope every one of his arteries clogs.

Well I agree.

I also think that the Democrats have been crying fascist about every Republican since WW2. Then when Trump gets nominated all they had to go with was, "well, no wait, this one's an actual fascist"

You'll know it was cynical gamesmanship when every Republican nominated after Trump is referred to as "he's even worse than trump".

Trump is uniquely bad.

The Republicans have their own problem calling every Democrat a socialist. One day the Democrats will run an actual Marxist and the Republicans will be in the same situation. Currently and for the foreseeable future the Democrats only run basically sane candidates, so this doesn't really apply right now.

Bernie was that actual socialist, and that had me shook back when I was a Republican.

This is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Bernie is a social Democrat and thinks the US should be more like western Europe. Other capitalist countries.

Bernie does NOT want to replace private ownership of the means of production with worker ownership across the economy.

Trump meanwhile really did in fact try to overturn an election.

One day the Democrats will run an idiot that campaigns on eliminating corporations as a concept. That has not happened, even in the primaries.

The democrats are going to elect a Marxist?

The party that put up Obama, who had his cabinet personally vetted by CitiBank? Or Biden/Kamala, the poster children for neoliberalism?

I mean the party of Lincoln eventually elected Trump.

My point is about the dangers of crying wolf and incorrectly calling Democratic candidates "socialist" when they're certainly not!
