Voting for the 70% Hitler instead of the 100% Hitler
Fine and dandy - choose the least worst-seeming option. I didn’t tell you who to vote for - what I’m telling you is that irregardless of who wins in November, people are going to have to start coming to grips with the fact that “liberal democracy” hasn’t turned out to be very democratic. If it did, this mess wouldn’t have been able to exist in the first place.
