My fellow liberals, Mussolini wasn’t voted into power.

Mussolini was literally invited into power to “restore order” by the liberals themselves because they didn’t know how to deal with the communists taking over the country.

Mussolini’s fascism was the first successful test case of a liberal experiment to brutally crush Leninism in Europe following the Bolshevik Revolution. Hitler followed in Mussolini’s footsteps.

I would be concerned if you voted for either and didn't revolt.

Like how fucking whipped are westerners where we can't even think about revolution?

mussolini whitewashing is genuinely a really big problem

Watching liberals use electoralism to jerry-rig a justification for embracing fascism has been both predictable and fascinating to witness

To any future internet archeologists let it be known we knew exactly what was going on and don't let them tell you otherwise

Imagine thinking your vote matters in Hitler vs. Mussolini election

Imagine thinking your vote matters in Democrat vs. Republican election

Liberals be like: "Revolution is a deranged fantasy for violent weirdos. We have to rely on the system in order to make things better. Even though the system will only ever result in fascist outcomes but it's okay because this guy is only 98% fascist unlike the 100% fascist competitor.

voting for mussolini is harm reduction

Bravely voting for the guy who will immediately and enthusiasticly adopt the policies of the guy he didn't vote for is actually a very good analogy for voting for the Dems.

There's always a secret third option:

(Dear fbi i mean this specifically in the hitler v mussolini example, also you guys haven't approved my vacation days around thanksgiving)

Antifascist liberals: I would for fascism

Oh my god. He’s not even ironic.

Liberals act like voting is like the only possible political action ever

if these were my choices and if there was no communist movement in my country i would try my best to flee.

Me voting for Mussolini

Deciding that Musollini was like, a morally superior guy to Hitler is absurd. Hitler managed to do worse things but it's not like Musollini had the opportunity to do a holocaust and said 'no, that's a step too far for me, personally'. This is your brain on liberalized Great Man theory. It's applying pop psychology to a perfect sphere in a perfect vacuum. Fucking dolts

You would vote for original fascist rather than the revisionist, eh? A purist, I see

these people yelled for four years how Trump was the end of democracy but in even the most extreme hypothetical they cannot conceive that democracy might be dead as long as the ritual of voting for one of exactly two options is preserved.

liberals love to invest their vote with ritual holy significance, losers

Okay, it sucks that Hitler's ghost is the only candidate but what are you going to do - not vote? That's basically the same as a vote for Hitler's ghost!

Why are you even entertaining the idea of the overton window shifting that far to the right?

Remember, if you don't commit acts of terror against the state, you can't complain

i would be very concerned if someone vote for either of them

This just convinced me not to vote

Has the hypothetical Mussolini in this example been flipped right-side up?

Trump is Mussolini here right? I think they like to call him Cheeto Mussolini or something.

Trump is Mussolini in this analogy

The most important election ever
