    No. We may all be Americans, but MAGA is an alt-right hateful term, and I will never align myself with that.

    We can align as Americans and condemn violence, but that means condemning all violence.

      So what happens if Trump wins and goes full hitler? You just gonna line up to get carted off to a camp? Because this seems to be something you libs also think. So if that is the stakes then when does violence become acceptable?

      I am genuinely curious how far your absolute pacifism goes.

      Or what about the violence being funded by our government being inflicted on Palestinians and still being perpetrated against Native people here?

      That violence is okay with you right?

      Don’t lie to yourself you people fucking love violence when it benefits you.

      / seriously Well, have ye heard of the term “chickens coming home to roost”? I think that’s what Trump had coming for him, I guess…

      Genuinely, if Trump is a genuine risk to democracy and risks increasing support to Israel, why must he be defeated in a vote? Like, if he becomes Hitler 2 and erases democracy and ups the genocide, is that okay with you because he won the vote?

        He must be defeated in a vote to send a clear message he is not wanted/has no mandate. He can cry “stolen election” all he wants, he won’t be in charge, and after 2 presidential losses and 2 disastrous midterms the GOP will move on. Eventually he has to win or he has no power.
