Why is the blame placed on individuals that would be lucky if they made up more than 1% of the population that makes up the "online leftist"?
Seriously. How is the only opposition party not the one that decided they would "play chicken"? You blame people for playing "chicken" but ignore the actual political party with money and organization that clearly decided to play chicken themselves. Hell, they're the ones that literally decided to play that game.
Somehow the criticism and blame is placed on unorganized "online leftist".
It wasn't the online left. It was the vast majority of normies that thought about their vote for all of 30 seconds and said : "Yeah, I don't like all the dead babies I keep hearing about. I'll stay home or vote Trump i guess"
Stop pretending it's some cringe online leftist. You're delusional.
Holy fucking shit, for the millionth time, more than one actor can be guilty at once
Am I discussing quantum physics to you people or something?
It's because actions speak louder than words, you dolt.
Your actions are "only ever criticize the actual left" and so you are regarded as insincere because WERE ON THE SAME SIDE. But instead you NEED to be morally superior and make sure everyone knows it. It's the same as the people who didn't vote for Harris and their constant whinging about how the Dems never listen and theirs was the only MORAL vote. I think that shit was dumb, too, but at least they have principles.
If you just look at your actions, it appears you want to delegitimize the left in favor of the "centrist" dems as though moving right is a viable strategy that has worked for the Dems in the past. Basically, we see a clown.
We probably have our political differences but I'm glad you see the failures of "centrist opposition". Well said.
Centrism in the political landscape of America is nothing more than a support of a right-wing policy shift.
