So what's your plan to stop the US from turning into Gilead? Wear lots of black clothes and whine about it?

I can't speak for the previous commenter, but I know that not voting for either party is my plan. Everyone that votes out of fear of "the bad one getting elected" is part of the problem. How about something you can vote for instead of something you're voting against?

Thanks for enabling fascists because you can't be bothered to do the bare minimum.

No, the people enabling fascists are the ones voting for them. I don't take that notion of enabling fascists to heart at all in this context, not sorry either. For the record, when the Democrat party undermines citizens almost as badly as Republicans, it occurs to me that they're not my party anymore. Thinking railworker strike, trade deals, erosion of support for US jobs, and lacking the spine to push through socialized medicine. I'm also thinking about how Bernie should have won the nomination instead of Hillary but the undemocratic superdelegates supported her against the will of the popular vote anyway, with the literal explanation of the superdelegates being that they are there to stop undesired grassroots efforts from being successful.........and here you're pretending they're somehow not fascist themselves?

Dream on, we need the two parties thrown out, and to quit bickering amongst citizens and unite against the true enemy - billionaires who want us to vote the way we have been.

I'm sure you'll get right on that, right?

Every time I vote, and have done so for the past 6 years. Sucks that all the other sheep don't wake up.

Democrats almost got rid of abortion entirely.

both parties can fuck off.
