      Well, they’ll cast the people fascism will murder into the fire. Fascism itself they’ll celebrate, because it means the fall of their TRUE enemy - the shitlibs

    If you feel your choices are “bad” and “worse”, refusing to choose is tacitly choosing “worse”.

    Leopards chewing faces?

      Exactly, thank you.

      If fascists are banging at the door, and someone refused to hold the line just because they had beef with the ones trying to keep the door shut?

      Yeah, they’d rightfully look like the asshole.

        The whole reason the fascists are at the door is because the asshole holding it closed was holding the gates and let them.

        Because his “less bad” rich friends told him to. Because the people that’ll actually fight back are “scary”

    Don’t worry, this time losing to the right-wing will totally move the Dems left. And if it doesn’t, well, that’s just a price minorities and other marginalized groups will have to pay for our purity 😊

      Controversial opinion: it’s a political party’s own responsibility to attract voters. If a party loses an election, it’s not because of some grand conspiracy theory of people being manipulated into not voting for you. It’s because your politics fucking sucks.

        This all mosly reduces down to the perception that if Harris had won, Cuomo would have been endorsed by the president and Zohran would never have been a blip in the media.

        For some, Zohran winning a primary and maintaining popular support is the worst thing because not only is it leftward policy movement, some online tankies might be feeling validation.

          Yes, as we all know, I’m an opponent of Mamdani and not a supporter.

          Keep bootlicking, fascist, just like you simp for the genocide of Ukrainians.

    Difference between true Liberals and leftists. Despite not agreeing with everything on the far left, we know that voting progressives if they are serious is the better option than maga. The establishment aren’t made of true Liberals. They are old school conservatives. RINOs.

    Now leftists, if they are not catered to exactly, they opt out. Great for when things are stable but not great for when there is a fascist takeover.

      Not always, considering that fighting with moderate liberals to vote for Mamdani in NYC is shaping up to be a struggle.

      People are often stupid regardless of ideology. The point is to ensure that it’s understood that purity-testing in the face of literal fascism is both immoral and socially unacceptable. It’s something that has to be pushed in the broader civic culture, not just where on a political axis you align.

      It’s not something that’s ‘inherent’ to leftism or not inherent to liberalism.

    With the rise of true progressives, we can see on full display how the DNC and RNC fight against any change to the status quo. There’s no excuse for dem impotence, like with their policies, when they’re attacking their own canidates and fighting the will of the people.

    The two halfs of the Duopoly are mask off “the same” now.

      Oh. Is that what fascism is, now? “Overcoming capitalism”? What brave new arguments the ‘left’ has come into.
