Idk bout ur whole argument of russian propaganda but
“Y’all are too stupid to understand first past the post or the spoiler effect or the way the two party system means you have to vote for the lesser of two evils or you are explicitly condoning the greater evil.”
Is both seemingly valid and entirely a crock of shit that will result in ratcheting towards fascism every single time.
No it won’t if you primary establishment with progressives and actual leftists. If progressives had registered and voted in Dem primaries everywhere every time we’d have an actually progressive party. But too many dipshits buy the both sides bullshit.
Blaming the voter base will never work, and just serves the interest of the right wing steer.
You must hold the dems accountable, and primary them for sure.
But both sides ARE terrible and the dems are highly complicit, it’s not about people ‘buying’ anything, it’s about not rewarding people who happily increase funding to ICE under the current scenario.
You can’t expect fundamentally disenfranchised people to play in a game that’s rigged against good without inspiring them with hope.
Look at Mamdani, there were no candidates in the 2024 election like that. Why? Simple…
THERE WAS NO DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY.
BLAME THE PARTY, who forced this upon us! They lost an easily winnable election, no-one else is half as culpable.

It really doesn’t play out like that though.
