It’s generally good to reflect on events so that one doesn’t repeat the same goddamn mistakes over and over and over again. You know, like in the 1930s and the 2020s.
But if elections matter at all in 2028, I fully expect that we’ll still be having this conversation on Lemmy. Even if we manage to put a progressive like AOC into the nomination seat, since numerous ‘leftists’ on here are full-bore on condemning people like Sanders and AOC as social fascists who are just as bad as the GOP, we will still be having this fucking conversation. And I will still be reminding people that letting the fascists win is a fucking mistake, in the vain hope of having that reminder kick around in the skull of one or two people who might otherwise stay home and think “Well, at least it wasn’t my fault!”
