      Nobody asked for “trust”. Just try to take a second to understand what the two party system is or even how the german system works. Keep cherry-picking info like you live in nazi germany, that just makes it easy to see you have no idea what you’re talking about and are repeating popular (trash) arguments lmao

          Did you just try to insult me for being on lemmy… on lemmy?

          You have no way of knowing who I am or what I have published, you’re just making stuff up cherry-picking info that “makes sense to you”.

      Two things. Influential does not necessarily mean correct. Second, your use of it is not correct regardless. While I would agree with her in general. Your depiction of the situation is a bit of a hyperbolic caricature. And not the reality of the situation.

      We would all, myself included, do well to remember not to alienate those with whom we actually agree a lot with. Change comes with building coalitions and gaining allies. Not virtue signaling, or pyrrhic dogmatic victories.

      So people need to accept the protest votes here in the primary. But those protest voting now need to be ready to do everything they can to make sure trump and the Republicans don’t win come November. Because anyone who feels virtue signaling is worth more than the extra suffering Republicans absolutely will cause. Isn’t much better than the Republicans themselves. As an unattributed philosopher once said. All it takes for evil to triumph is for a good men to do nothing.
