I did. Because I knew, from the moment he got the nomination in 2020, that Trump would get a second term. You cannot fight fascism with the ideology that lead to fascism.

Yeah, I hear over and over again that we need to vote for a lesser evil to stop the greater evil, so that we have time to improve things and get a better candidate, and platform, to actually improve politics next time. What the people saying so never acknowledge is that that was 2020.

The 2020 election was that chance. The last chance, which was quietly evident, and became gob-smackingly so as early as January 6th, 2021. Not only was Biden not the guy to meet the moment, nobody started pushing him until it was far, far too late.

After 2020, it was only a question of when the fascists would win—2024 or 2028. And the longer it took, the more prepared they'd be.
