    Democracy is about compromise. By refusing to compromise you’re ceding power to the worst option.

      Why is the compromise always to be a good little voter and vote for us regardless of the heinous shit we’re up to cuz the other option is Hitler wins? That isn’t a compromise. A compromise is when both sides give up something they want. What have the dems given up? Said that Israel has maybe gone a little bit too far? Whoopty-fucking-do.

      I’m tired of compromising with people who won’t compromise. We just lurch to the right over and over whenever there’s a fight. They never worry about compromising with me ever.

        That’s democracy. When a large portion of voters want fascism, you have to compromise with fascists.

      Compromise requires both sides. And supplying a genocide isn’t compromise.
