“It only helps the Nazis if you criticize the people who enabled the Nazis!”
Jesus Christ. So many commenters here are determined to defend the feelings of purity politics voters who literally delivered us to the fucking Nazis and will do so again at the first opportunity.
Not the fucking liberal democrats who had the power and responsibility to get people to vote for them. It’s the minority of leftists who are truly the problem in this country, and pug Jesus will never shut the fuck up about it.
It will never cease to amaze me when these people blame the voters, instead of blaming the people with the power, the platform, and the money for where we are today.

You’re absolutely right, our aristocratic overlords are the only ones with any responsibility; it’s okay for ‘leftist’ voters to let Nazis win if the Dem elites aren’t entertaining enough for them. Minority lives are only worth however much they make you feel good for voting at the ballot box.
You’re implying there’s only two options, either vote blue no matter who or enable facism and Nazis. This removes literally all guilt and dismisses legit and continuous criticism of the Democrats actions and shortcomings.
You’re straw-manning leftists arguments as shallow or selfish by making it about “how good you feel voting at the ballot box” yet our critiques are expressly aimed at policy failures of Democrats. We want healthcare, we want to end the wars, we want better foreign policy decisions, etc etc but somehow you can just sum it up as “you want to feel good when voting”
OF COURSE I want to feel good while voting, because I have fucking morals and I do not believe we should actively hand power to people who are not going to follow through with what they say, as the Democrats have done for my entire life paying attention to politics.
You’re completely overlooking accountability of the democratic party in every way, the Democratic Party decides their platform, turnout strategy and need to inspire voters to vote for them. You’re deflecting all blame they absolutely SHOULD GET away from the powerful “aristocracy” as you put it.
You completely ignore structural issues in our voting system like gerrymandering, voter suppression and the two party system itself. You’re blaming individuals for a system we had no hand in creating.
Ultimately you’re just trying to weaponize guilt, overly simplify complex issues to suit your narrative, misrepresent leftist views and evade accountability through emotional arguments.
Look inward and be better, or more likely given your amount of posting, find a different job.
You’re implying there’s only two options, either vote blue no matter who or enable facism and Nazis.
Uh, considering that the two options were “Blue cretin” or “The literal Nazi” in 2024 in a FPTP system where both parties had near-majority support?
Yes. By definition, that’s true.
This removes literally all guilt and dismisses legit and continuous criticism of the Democrats actions and shortcomings.
Fucking what.
Jesus Christ, do you just have an imaginary lib in your head you’re arguing with or something?

Would you like to remind me who elects the people in charge of the Dem party?
Go ahead. Remind me.

“We want these things, so we’re going to let the Nazis win”
Fucking brilliant. Enjoy the blood on your hands, Nazi. Glad you felt good about supporting Nazis, at least. It would be horrible if you felt bad about murdering minorities.
Would you like to remind me who ‘divided’ and failed to show unity against the literal Nazis in the very real scenario we’re discussing and has already happened?
PROTIP: It’s the ones who refused to vote against the literal fucking Nazi.

Yes, it was the Democratic leadership, who tried to pull in voters from the party of the Nazis. All while telling the anti-Nazi voters to sit down and shut up. The Dems proudly ran around the stage with Republicans, and moved their policies to the right.
They thought enough of the left still understood how elections worked. I agree it was a dumb strategy to try going after the supposed “moderate Republicans” who aren’t fully in the cult, but the Dems having shit leaders and dumb strategies was not a good reason to help elect Trump.
I was referring to all of the people who are supposed allies and leftists but advocated not voting for Harris when the only possible outcome of not voting for Harris was to empower Trump. I doubt they contributed significantly to Trump winning but regardless, they did exactly what Trump wanted them to do. If you’re one of them, I hope you figure things out and do the right thing if we get a next time.
And what do you expect to gain by berating them? Right now you’re the nazis’ best friend, doing their job for them of keeping their enemies fighting each other.
What do you expect to gain by asspatting them? Other than the continuation of their behavior without consequences? I guess you’re really eager to see this scenario play out again. Anything to put Nazis in power, I guess.
I expect the conservatives leading the DNC to back off so we can start fixing things. If that doesn’t happen no amount of you making yourself feel better by attacking innocent people will help.

Man, they’re not going to back off of their own accord, and moderates now are spooked because, especially after Trump won the popular vote for the first time, most of the party wants to go more moderate, as fucking insane as that is.
By letting Trump win, we’ve sabotaged the left in the DNC, not weakened the moderates.
If that doesn’t happen no amount of you making yourself feel better by attacking innocent people will help.
“Neutrality is on the side of the oppressor” - some guy who doesn’t know anything about oppression, I guess
People who stood by and preferred to let Nazis win to the arduous task of [checks notes] casting a vote are absolutely not innocent.
To make a lighter quote with the same meaning, as a Canadian poet once said, “If you choose not to decide/You still have made a choice”
You realize this path you’re barreling down leads to the death of the democratic party, right? Conservative dems aren’t going to draw any more votes, especially with people like you keeping the hate alive.
Well your current path only helps the nazis, so maybe try something different.

Lol did y’all really delete this post, pitiful
Buddy, you’re doing their work for them. Divide and conquer. Right now you are the nazi.

Who is advocating for helping to elect Trump? I certainly wasn’t. I want that PoS out more than I want the Dems out.
