No, no it is NOT “just as immoral” to fight against fascists as doing a fascist takeover… What a moronic, childish, black & white take…

But it is immoral to become a fascist in order to fight against fascism. And that’s the proposal on the table; Biden should use his newly found presidential immunity to do “official” acts, like have all of the Republican leadership assassinated, or jailed in Gitmo, or I don’t even know. If Biden wins by killing democracy, then democracy is still dead, even though we have a less-evil leader at the helm.

But that’s still an ignorant black & white position. It is NOT, in fact, immoral, to do a good thing with unjustly acquired power. It is NOT immoral to suddenly have unjust power, but it is to seek it, or use it for immoral ends

There’s no way to use that power in a way that’s just though, because the power itself is unjust. Any use of that power necessarily goes against the concept of this being a nation of laws, where no person has absolute authority to enforce their will at the expense of others.

Of course, if you don’t truly believe in democracy as a concept, then the idea of using an immoral power in a “good” way seems fine.
