I love the "You should just vote in the primaries" Democrats, who didn't even blink back in 2020 when Chris Matthews was on national television screaming that Bernie Sanders supporters were going to drag him into Central Park and shoot him.

This is the state of modern American politics. Republicans are told that they need to vote for the most reactionary, fascist, fringe candidate or they'll be murdered by migrants. Democrats are told that they need to vote for the most centrist corporate shill in the Senate or they'll be invaded by Russia.

Everything is fearmongering all the time. Nobody even talks about policy anymore.
