    but I think most genuine antifascists agree that letting fascism win is pretty antithetical to the whole ‘anti’ part of antifascism.

    Good thing i’m not doing that, then.

    Yea, no shit. He’s actively supporting fascism in Israel, if I weren’t voicing opposition on those grounds I wouldn’t be considering myself antifascist.

    Democrats haven’t even held their convention yet, fuck you if you want me signing off on his platform and candidacy before then. From my perspective it’s you who has their whole fucking fist up their ass.

      Again, with the intentionally disingenuous conflation of ‘voicing opposition’ and ‘not encouraging anyone to vote for’. Maybe if you say it a few dozen more times, it’ll make you feel a little better about sitting by and letting the chips fall where they may vis a vis fascism in the US.

        How does one protest against supporting a genocide without voicing opposition to supporting genocide?

        You live in a strange world of double meanings.
