The other side tried to violently overthrow an election, is engaging in record fraud and government abuse, is led by a rapist who's hiding the Epstein files, wants to overturn all civil rights achievements and destroy all workers rights, they illegally toppled a foreign government and are now stealing billions from Venezuela's oil sales, and they are currently trying to rig US elections.

They tried to overturn birthright citizenship, want to undo marriage equality, have sent armed thugs to harass democrat cities, they've called anti fascists and Democratic socialists dangerous violent leftists, and their dumbass tariffs and Iran war have essentially caused a voluntary global recession while oil and defense make record profits.

I take your point but one side is still astronomically worse

Yeah everyonr should vote red or not at all thatll show em

Harder and harder to say “Vote Blue No Matter Who” with that boot up your throat.

Obviously we're way past "Vote Blue no matter who" now. That effort was the last ditch attempt to stop fascists from taking power. If it had worked, it might have been possible to enact safeguards to protect the democratic institutions of the Constitution. Or might not, as it was probably already too late. But it was the last chance we had to prevent the fascist regime and try to salvage anything.

Obviously it failed, and fascists/grifters/looters/christian nationalists/oligarchs now have complete control of the government. They'll do anything to hold onto that power. We'll know for sure in November, but working within the democratic election system to change who's in power is basically futile at this point.

So yeah, it's nice to see that people have finally started supporting progressive candidates in many states and a lot of them are winning their primaries--but sadly it's too late for that now. It's what needed to have been done well before now, starting during Dump 1.0 at the latest, which was the final wake up call. But not enough people gave a shit until it was too late, and most still don't.

Screaming “fake news” is unhelpful.

Vetting sources absolutely is helpful.

Cool. Whatever. Find me a better source.

False Premise fallacy. We've not yet established the premise to be true. You sure trust far-right sources an awfully lot.

The truth is, their point is made weaker for using a far-right trash source with low credibility. Why they used that specific source should raise serious eyebrows.

In fairness, I simply asked a question; how they responded reveals so much more. Though if you're regurgitating the most fringe fucking garbage right-wing media points that just so happens to have wedge-drive the left, yes, I think that raises some red flags.

I will continue to call such people out, and if they instead turned around and went, "Hey yeah you're right, this source is dogshit and Snopes couldn't even verify what was said in the video, so sorry for spreading this bullshit nazi trash" I'd say no harm no foul.

Edit: By the way, I never said they were center-right; I was citing MBFC. Please, I encourage one to read more carefully. Though anyone with half a brain knows by the standards of Overton Window, that means far-right in US politics. If you disagree, then congratulations, you're enabling fascism or should review the rightward trajectory of the Overton Window.

Yes. Remember what Robert Oppenheimer said, "I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." The US had to make an atomic bomb before Germany.

Commie gangster God sounds kinda based tbh
