    A tiger cub is still a tiger. You can cuddle and pet a tiger cub. Even let your kids play with it. But a full grown tiger? That’s dangerous to have around, especially if it gets hungry.

      Sure, so then there’s no difference in voting to be locked in a room alone with a tiger cub vs an adult tiger, got it.

      The tiger cub buys time to make meaningful grassroots change, even if it still continues the path to an eventual adult tiger.

        after 4 years, all tigers are adult tigers.

            Obama didn’t result in fascism even after 8 years.

            huh. do you remember 2015? chuds running around california knifing queer kids, marching in the street shouting for trump. then, a year later, guess who was elected.

              Yep, and it got worse after Trump got elected. Obama wasn’t the fascism, even if fascism is rising thanks to Neoliberalism.

                neoliberalism is fascism. obama is fascist.

                  Social Democracy is Communism. Bernie is a Communist.

                  No, moderate policies are not extremist policies.

                    i don’t consider obama moderate. he was the most extreme deporter in chief we’ve ever seen. he ran out of bombs persuing imperialist goals. he killed american citizens without due process. he was a well-propagandized fascist.

            obama ran out of bombs and deported more people than bush or trump.

            in fact, at the outset of his presidency, he promised a new era of cooperation between business and government. that’s literally mussolini’s fascism.

              It is not literally musollinis fascism. Certainly a start, but if you’re legitimately saying mussolini is equivalent to Obama then again, you’re a theoryless fed, and likely an actual fascist trying to commit fascist apologia.

              Please, read theory for once.

                It is not literally musollinis fascism. Certainly a start,

                mussolini’s fascism, once, had a start as well.

                  It did, yes.

                  You are advocating that there is no difference between fascism and pre-fascism, so letting fascism happen is okay.

                  This is reactionary behavior and in no way helps the Proletariat.

                    no, i’m saying that fascism is bad and it should be resisted at every step with no compromise.
