That is a very bad take.
Viewing states as binary plays precisely into the language of fascism.
Below are the election results for Texas. Even in a scenario in which they all voted for Trump, you can't be saying that kids should pay for their parents' mistakes.

Aaron is offering an oversimplification at the detriment of the greater moral truth.
While it is morally correct that when no other options are available, the least damaging option is the moral one, it doesn't absolve that which had agency & gave rise to the limited options in the first place.

Well, perhaps.
I don't know the guy, so I can't speak for him, but I don't think this will change the outcome.
I think he is probably receiving a lot of toxic DMs on top of many toxic replies.
This is a leftist user who was toxic towards me and just look at his bio.

I decided to go for a genre in books I normally don't feel comfortable with...fantasy.

On one of my trail-runs during the end of last year, I saw this little bird balancing perfectly on the top of the tiniest branch.
Not as cool as a raven, but the little guy had such a gallant pose.
