    But you’re already doing this – you make it clear that the wrong thing to do is electing the fascist dictator, and the good thing to do is whatever you can to prevent that.

    Your argument is effectively what? Don’t think you’re better than the people doing the wrong thing, because then they’ll do the wrong thing?

    This isn’t 2016. Trump is a known quantity. His diehard supporters are a lost cause, and we should stop pretending otherwise. Frankly, those who say “you’re being mean to them so I’m voting for Trump” are a lost cause as well. Fascism cannot be beaten through lukewarm rejection.
