But only one is actively encouraging it.

He's not "encouraging" it. He's speedrunning it.

Would you prefer to die slowly, or fast? You will die in pain either way.

"The country should just die quickly" actually manages to be a worse sales pitch than "The less bad choice."

I'm not asking you to vote for either of them! I'm telling you that the system they built together while pretending to be on opposite sides is killing you. At least Trump is so fucking stupid that he's made it obvious to people without political insight. Unfortunately, Americans are still not gonna pick up their guns and do something about it, so I propose they just let it happen, then. Let it get worse, so it can get better. Let the system destroy itself so you can build a new one instead of dragging it out.

You think you're making a clever point, but I would very much prefer to die slowly.
That's to say nothing for the fact that going slowly provides a chance for a cure to be developed.

Fuck that accelerationist nonsense.
You have to slow before you can reverse.

I like how you frame this as if "slowly" isn't objectively the sane and correct answer.

Yeah! Same how slowly torturing someone to death for days on end is considered much more merciful than just killing them.

That's not what you said. You used a bad metaphor that shows your argument is flawed and now you want to retroactively change it to not show how flawed your argument is.

I'm sorry, I believe you have me confused with someone. Does this happen a lot?

Yes that's the point. There's apparently thousands of you who only wanna talk about how evil Democrats are or how pathetic Americans are who didn't want this. It's become extremely tiresome.

Talk? Not at all. I was merely scrolling by, saw you announcing that dying painfully slowly is not just better than dying painfully quickly, but is, and I quote, "objectively the sane and correct answer", and thought I'd stop by to point and laugh at the idiot.

I'm glad you feel superior. You're not but whatever you need.
