      @mastodonmigration @msbellows @benroyce Exactly. The new Hungarian leader is nowhere near someone I'd vote for in a perfect world. But would I have voted for him against Orban (or Trump)? Hell yes.

      @msbellows @benroyce

      Believe a more subtle point is also demonstrated in Hungary.

      That the perfect is the enemy of the good.

      The victorious coalition is not liberal. It is a conglomerate of 'everyone but the fascists.'

      The important thing was for them to put down their differences, show up and vote the fascists out.

      Only now, with democracy restored, can they move forward.

      @benroyce One of the things I like best about democracy's victory in Hungary is that it provides an irrefutable argument against those who claim "voting doesn't matter" and "voting can't change totalitarian regimes." Of *course* voting matters! Orban is gone! Everyone needs to vote, every time! (And we can still protest, throw sabots, etc. It's not either/or.)

      @mastodonmigration @msbellows

      "i don't want the lesser evil, i want good"

      every political choice is between evil and lesser evil

      all times past, now, forever more

      if a candidate is angelic, smearmongering gossips do their work and in the popular imagination the good candidate is now the lesser evil

      the problem is not choosing between evil and lesser evil

      the problem is your faulty cognition about what is really going on

      you *vote*

      you *iterate*

      you *sustain*

      et voila:

      you get good
