This "tribe of inclusion" narrative is getting pretty tired for a strawman. I'm libertarian. I'm voting conservative in 2024, aka democrat for those who haven't been following closely. As much as I despise bureaucratic authoritarianism, it's still a major improvement over autocratic authoritarianism. Bureaucratic authoritarianism is most certainly infuriating, and likening it to cult of personality fascism has merit as a critique. But there are significant differences between the two, and we should not take for granted what we do have. Normalizing ("attempting neutrality") and kowtowing to fascism (preemptively avoiding upsetting an autocrat who may gain power) means you're supporting fascism, which makes one a fascist. Not head of the party or anything, just the minor kind who everyone looks back on and wonders why so many people just fell into line. Economically, the current administration has exercised the most fiscal responsibility there has been over the past twenty years, setting moderate interest rates instead of profligate ZIRP. I don't know how well our economy could do after another round of helicopter money printing to juice the Potemkin stock market (causing rampant price inflation several years later) in lieu of directly addressing the national emergencies that will invariably arise. Also, remember when political parties dropped their one term failures and chose a new candidate, rather than doubling down with nonsense narratives about stolen elections? Pettridge farm remembers.
