Your ideological purity

I'm not advocating for purity so I don't need perfect candidates. I'll be happy if they just aren't racist war criminals.

Thinking that voting according to your ethics is totally and completely disconnected from the consequences is a privilege not everyone has.

everyone can accept deontological ethics and choose to act in accordance with the categorical imperative. it takes no privilege at all.

I think Cornel West is a good person and I think Jill Stein is a good person. so I'm probably going to vote for one of them. I think Biden and Trump are bad people, so I won't be voting for either of them.

the state still has primacy, and the corporations are both chartered by the state and are subject to capricious prosecution for a myriad of laws if they threaten the power of the state.

Mussolini made no such distinction. mechanized military states meet all the hallmarks of fascism: primacy of the state, and alignment of institutions with the interest of the state.

the sudden outrage of ‘genocode Joe’ has the feel of an astroturfing campaign.

this is vague. is there something concrete that you can point to? vibes aren't very convincing to me.

this is just bad faith engagement, and you can see them doing this and other trolling techniques in their comment history
