    The US does support international genocide, and Capitalism is declining

    Neither of those are mutually exclusive; capitalism is actually quite friendly to fascism and many definitively non-fascist states stand idly by or conveniently profit while genocides happen.

      I understand, I was pointing out that voting for Biden is voting for a slow descent rather than rapid into fascism.

        Basically “let the boomers continue to enjoy the futures they stole from everybody else”.

        That’s the real unspoken reality here. A vote for Biden is just propping up a lifestyle for the people who fucked us over in the first place.

            If Boomers had any interest in reaching a legitimate compromise with everybody else they would have voted for a reasonable compromise candidate in the 2020 primaries. Instead they voted for a geriatric old man who’s spent his entire political career enacting terrible policies we’re all paying for.
