    Hey don’t get me wrong I think his decision of voting for a third party is really really really stupid, I don’t think we disagree here.

    But the political discourse in the current time is dead, and it’s polarisation that killed it. There can be no healthy democracy in an environment where opponents are not seen as dignified people who you disagree with.

    I’m doing my part here to keep democracy alive. This guy is somebody who has ideas I find to be very wrong, but is still a guy like me and you who is doing the best he can like me and you, albeit misguidedly.

      “Not being polite to fascists is the real problem!”

      Fuck you too.

          Your point that not being polite enough to fascists is the real problem?

          I don’t think I proved that point.
