Sometimes a nudge is just that: a nudge.
Something can be small but outright dismissing it as nothing approaches thought-termination instead of analysis.
a nudge towards WHAT?!? TRUMP = BIDEN. They are the same. They nudged nothing nowhere, America went from 100% fascist to 100% fascist.
6-3 decisions on the Supreme Court are directly worsening already bad material conditions for most people now living in the United States. A slow decay versus a fast decay is still a difference.
Again, chanting about absolute equivalencies is just sounding downright dismissive and hostile right now. You're not even really doing analysis at this point, just being really mad at people.
EDIT: Adding in what I meant by that.
What I was getting at is that the razon-thin margins (that even surprised the ruling class backers of the Clinton campaign) of Trump's victory meant that even small nudges of further interest and commitment to his cause were enough to secure him four years of court appointments. Judges in the US were already bad, but a lot of shifts in the court chemistry made a lot of once-unimaginable shifts in ruling precedent happen with, yes, 6-3 rulings for the most part up to the present day.
No.
I'll answer in good faith even though the "lmaaaaaaoooo" thing suggests you're not offering me the same first.

That sounds like more nudges, yes. Not all have to be in one direction, and they can do different things all at the same time.
Are you going anywhere else with this? Being really mad at me is fine but if this is going to be a last word game about that, I already want out.
So to answer my question, no, you have nothing else to say except repeating yourself over and over again with even more anger.
You can at least let your ten day old account age a little before going all-in on that sort of thing, you know.
Just about your entire post history is "not mad, lmao" posting toward me so far, 10 day old account.
Continue if you wish. "lmao."
I said I wanted out. I had more to say after your "not mad, lmao" reply. I didn't say I disengaged yet.
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuure.
We're so back.
I admit that's an amazing image, even if I'm the butt of it right now.
i mean just come out and say you are a lesser evil electoralist and you support the DNC if that's what you're getting at
No.
If you're going to conjure piles of straw, set them ablaze, then scream at them while cursing my name, I think this conversation has run its course.
Your entire argument is that GG made the US fascist, and putting in red fascist judges instead of blue fascist judges is a huge thing we should care about. You westerners really just don't understand how evil ALL of your politicians are, going from one piece of shit to another isn't a huge terrible apocalypse it's business as usual
I suppose you didn't get the hint. I'll have to say it directly.
I'm disengaging.
I think it’s all just theater anyway and it doesn’t matter, the fascist uniparty of war will continue onwards either way.
Just funny to see a place with a bunch of Marxists upvote such idealist hyperventilating lib nonsense like “GG literally caused the west to become fascist” which is so disconnected from history and reality and any materialist lens that it becomes absurd
