        No more disingenuous than saying liberals enable fascists because they didnt remove law enforcement when they were in power.

          It isn’t that they didn’t “Completely remove law enforcement” or whatever. But that even when they run on these expansions of state violence and repression being bad, they immediately walk that back, make it bipartisan and even expand this very authoritarian repression apparatuses, like Obama running on opposition of Bush era anti-terrorism and opposition to ICE, but then expanding and empowering both once in power.

            What are you even trying to get at. Obama banned torture and a ton of CIA black sites. But you’re saying because he didnt reduce the USs surveliance network to 0 he is comparable to Trump. As for deportations thats a right wing meme and im not suprised you’re repeating it back. Obama barely deported more than previous years and as far as im aware they were legal. Go look into it if you dont believe me.

      Liberals are more ideological aligned with Trump than leftists. Both Biden and Harris’ campaigns were supporting genocide and making Trump term 1 bipartisan (“Actually, we fill out the paperwork and are more competent. So if you hate immigrants, you should vote Democrat because we will build the Wall faster and have ICE working more efficiently”). The centrists equivocation of the Left and fascists is just the equivalent of saying “Both the left and the right got mad at me shitting my pants in the middle of the room. So they must both be the same!”

        You think liberals supported the genocide? Libs are the only ones who actually oppose it and offer solutions to the conflict. Maga supports it and the “left” are pushing for a genocide on jews.

          lolwut? You mean the liberals that spent billions of dollars on continuing the genocide? The same liberals that wouldn’t say “Genocide is bad” even though it meant losing the election?

            Gaza had nothing to do with the election otherwise Trump’s position which was to flatten gaza would have prevented him from winning. So you either think that leftists caused Trump to get elected or Gaza was meaningless to the outcome of the election. So which is it?

            Every single liberal politician agree its bad and their position is to end it.
