“I can only assume that Joe wants gulags. Why else would anyone vote for this man?”
Because he doesn’t believe that. I think you know that.
I think Joe is wrong, but not evil.
He needs to be careful then.
If he’s not a Communist hatemonger, but he’s willing to vote for a Communist hate monger, then I can only conclude that he is totally ignorant of who he intends to vote for, and that makes him a danger to me.
I don’t want to live in a Communist country full of gulags elected to power by morons who didn’t know any better.
I really don’t.
