The party leader incited the first putsch in the history of the republic and instead of abolishing him, the party rallied around him and expunged the members who tried to hold him accountable. A desire to overthrow elections is the definition I'm using.

Tell me, does that juvenile begging the question stuff ever work for you in real life?

Because they would rather prop up fascism than spend that money on their own progressive candidates.

Its not like any of those fascists needed the help, they all easily won their primary races because maga voters voted for them.

It was just cynical playing with fire that harmed the party's credibility. You can't tell people the country is on the brink of fascism and then spend money helping fascists if you want anyone to believe you. They were damn lucky that the ~5 fascists they ran some ads for didn't actually win in the general.

His business partner, FTX CEO Ryan Salame spent money on maga.

Salame spent about $24M, and the largest single spend that either of them made was about $2.5M to mitch mcconnel's PAC, the senate leadership fund.

It should not surprise anyone that Reason, a koch bros front, neglected to mention any of that. Nor that the so-called liberal media left Salame out of almost all their reporting too.

When you say "makes no difference," you're saying that racial quotas are acceptable. Did you miswrite this?

It is untrue that a "person in rural upstate NY" would have no "broadband service" available. There is satellite internet. Yes, it's slower and more expensive, but you can't choose to live way outside of the major population centers, then expect to have all the amenities of those population centers. You're not going to get four grocery stores or a major hospital either. Which has to be more "essential" than internet.
