They’re neo-libs which is better because the conservatives are fascists.

But they’re both evil. Just a matter of degree. Hence us voting for the lesser of the two.

Exactly, I don’t enjoy voting that way but do so out of necessity.

Neoliberals aren’t evil - we’re just correct.

That’s because your life is informed more from social media than real life.

We’re the normal people.

It’s not great but we have to be pragmatic unfortunately.

And it’s pretty shitty honestly that what the neo-libs have going for them is at least we’re not fascists.

Need a strong third party and ranked choice voting.
