    Eventually you’ll reach the point I did which is that ideals are great but are rarely ever realized, thus, compromise is essential.

      Or you’ll reach a point at which you develop real principles, such as “don’t compromise with fascists like the KKK”

        Principled failure means dogshit. If half the country don’t even know their side supports the KKK, having a fucking conversation is a lot more valuable than preaching to your base. A reminder Trump fucking won on racism and your principles meant nothing to the people who voted for him. The “No compromise, no discussion.” left on Lemmy is fucking wild. You’re barely a step removed from Anarchy and Civil War and it’s a telling how fucking sheltered you all are for even suggesting it.
