If the liberals on this forum really believe Trump supporters hate democracy than they should give up on America since 47% of voters backed Trump, if 47% of American voters hate democracy than democracy in America is already dead, what is to stop an authoritarian Republican from winning in 2024 and ending democracy altogether if half the electorate already hates democracy, surely it is only a matter of time now.
In a country where 47% of voters hate democracy as many people on this forum seem to think, it is only a matter of time until democracy collapses, personally, America becoming a right wing dictatorship would have one immediate downside, this forum would not be that active as there would be no American elections left to discuss.
They do and it's a huge problem. It is like peeling layers off an onion. There are some that are redeemable and hold Democracy in higher stead than Trump, but the substantial core are truly irredeemable.
It is a huge problem, and I do not have any good or simple solutions. And doubtless the fascists would prefer it if their victims simply "gave up". (Fascists, like "conservatives", really hate it when the victims of their abuse fight back.) But "giving up" isn't a viable solution either - as WWII showed us, eventually fascists will always come for everyone else. Because they can't actually run a nation on their own, they need war and looting and foreign scapegoats for their own evil incompetence.
American fascism is undead - a dead thing walking around and pretending its alive. Sooner or later its rotted husk will collapse. Whether that will be an internal as decay and daylight catch up to it, or whether it will need to be put down like the monster it is, I don't know. But leaving it alone will never be a good response.
