You did not vote against fascism, you voted for quieter, slower fascism.

Being against genocide is nothing more than "whining" to you? You see someone upset that innocent men, women and children are being killed, and you call them a DRAMA QUEEN? WTF is wrong with you? Doesn't death and destruction bother you?
Liberals and fascists share core beliefs and assumptions about scoeity, particularly the role of the state.
The state exists only as a tool to oppress the working class, and must be demolished, along with its corporate overlords. Find a tankie that would say that, but after first getting fucked.
If you're gonna say anything other than "but but they're literally not the same, so therefore they can't be compared", get back to me. Go talk to some actual humans and learn how we speak, learn the nuance in language required to understand that "liberals are fascist" is not saying "the definition of liberalism is identical to that of fascists".
Liberals support and prop up fascists, both materially by carrying their policies through without challenge, and also ideologically by giving a false vision of "The Left", while edging further and further right, limiting the horizon of what politics can be. If the "good guy" is barely different from the "bad guy", surely the bad guy can't really be that bad... right?
They are both bourgeois parties serving the same corporate and imperial interests. Liberals are just smarter and like to throw in some welfare and pander to progressive causes so their outright villainy is less obvious.
Of course it's preferable, but don't pretend like it's a good choice in any respect other than not literally being the worst
They didn't say "hating their subject". They said "might not like their syllabus", which could just mean they'd prefer a different syllabus.
And bicycles aren't French bulldogs. So what?
Smart enough to not fall for such an obvious deflection, at any rate.
Liberals are just fascists with better PR. They absolutely cannot be reasoned with, as evidenced by the democrats being exactly as complicit in the genocide as the republicans. No reasoning has managed to convince that party that Palestine deserves to exist.
Just admit what you really mean:
"The democrats may be just as genocidal outside of our country, but at least they're not genociding inside our country like the republicans would".
Or, put simply, "the democrats are evil in a way that doesn't impact me".
So, what was so insane? Feeling guilty over contributing to it?
That example may be bad, but it's also typical.
Imagine voting for genocide and thinking you have the moral high ground because you voted for the genocide that doesn't personally harm you.
