    Why is that a worrying attitude?

    They’re criticizing her for saying “he’s facist hitler” through the campaign as the sole message, and then when they lose, shrugging and treating it like any other loss. “Oh well, better luck next time!”

    Babylon Bee’s point is that the rhetoric doesn’t match the actions. If he was Hitler, then why are you handing him the reigns like this is just any other election? Their implication is that the campaign dramatized his impact and demonized him. They’re right about the criticism but wrong about the reason.

    He DOES represent the evils they’ve been espousing, and they are laying down and doing fuck all about it except paving him a clear path. Babylon Bee has managed to accidentally write their most non-partisan headline ever by accident, and a scathing indictment of spineless liberalism.

      Why is that a worrying attitude?

      Because it seems to be pointed in the direction of a civil war and an end to the US republic

      He DOES represent the evils they’ve been espousing, and they are laying down and doing fuck all about it except paving him a clear path.

      What do you think should be done instead?

        Be as petty as he was and do everything in their power to sabotage what they can and leave him a mess?
