My guy... I am trying to point out here that the mentality of "I feel hopeless about the current situation, so I'm going to agitate to throw it to a guy whose whole platform is 'I'm gonna make everything so much worse!' because that will somehow ultimately make things better" is pushing for an outcome that puts literal millions of vulnerable people in actual, immediate, mortal danger. In fact, tankies and others on the left making the argument that there's no difference between Biden and Trump can only be making that argument from a place of privilege, because for anybody belonging to the many vulnerable minority groups that the far right intend to target if Trump wins again (nevermind anybody that would be negatively impacted by the geopolitical effects of Trump abandoning NATO, among other things) the difference is fucking stark, and you'd have to be far removed from any of those groups to think otherwise.

And participating in a circlejerk hating tankies prevents a Trump regime? Belittling potential allies by calling them “useful idiots” is sure to prevent Trump from winning. Keep up the good work. /s
