The USA has problems. We all know this.
We haven't fixed racism. Hell, we've barely made a dent. But comparing the open racist who says immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country" to folks not doing enough to reduce racism is absurd.
Saying 'voting doesn't matter' because the 'US is already fascist' misses the point. Fascism isn't a binary, there are degrees. One side is trying to make us less fascist (albeit slower than we would like) the other side is pro-Nazi.
