    This bit really really exemplifies that:

    you helped Trump speed up the process of destroying this unsustainable system

    Like. Ok. Then why are you mad at a third party voter? You admit the system is unsustainable! Why should I take the strategic, pragmatic approach when voting in something you admit is already doomed? Does a Harris administration somehow make it all sustainable? And if it does, why couldn’t she have done that when she was in Biden’s cabinet?

    I keep seeing this bazaar combination of fantastical idealism and so-called “pragmatic realism” in liberal discourse. Like, when they chastise us for making “unrealistic” policy asks; You can’t ask for socialized medicine! Those in-bread rurals will never allow it! Also, we need gun control now.

    Or, when they say we can have nice things, we just need to give Democrats consistent victories in the House, Senate, and Presidency for the next four election cycles. Really??? That’s your idea of a “realistic” solution? Under this fuckinsg constitution?
