Eh, he didn't quite have the same "desperate christofascist enabler" vibe back then

Oh he did, people just don't pay attention

Look, my point is that he'll probably be even worse this time around if he gets the chance. I'm painting a (hopefully exaggerated) image in an attempt to convince people that the left should unite on the big issues and push for a point where actually progressive parties are more than a spoiler in a fucked up system.

Yeah. But the writing on the wall was legible enough then to know what we were in for. It’s now in bright flashing neon, and they still won’t budge.

I think my point was made poorly: I don't think they'll work together. He has gone fully mask off now, I worry he might pull a Reichstagsbrand 2 and start eliminating his opponents. And no matter how fractured we may be, no matter how we see our differences, at the end of they day we're all leftists and to him, that'll be enough to lump us all together as enemies.

I worry that the only way the leftists will unite is by being thrown into the same mass graves.
