The supposedly "PC" left is full of fucking obnoxious and annoying brats who don't know anything about morality, anthropology, history, political theory, and basic statistics. They demonize white men en masse incessantly and condescend to any who challenge their half-baked fan-fictions or propose some sort of nuance to their premises. Many of them base their entire personalities on their mental illnesses and grievances.
But I still voted for Harris because, fundamentally, that's better odds of survival for the environment, unions, women's autonomy, protections for whistleblowers, antitrust measures, counters to Russian and CCP aggression, and basically everything else that actually matters to the survival of the species and our federal republic. IT DOESN'T REQUIRE A GRADUATE DEGREE TO FIGURE THAT OUT, TIMMY, YOU BALD CUCK.
Adults don't abandon their principles because of some dumbasses "on their side". And by the way, Harris was a dogshit corporatist establishment candidate that I'd NEVER vote for if given different circumstances.
Man, I remember a video I saw like 7 years ago. Two black college students were reading the riot act to a white kid for having dreadlocks. Like, I get it, but pick your battles. That is not your enemy. The left needs to recognize when they're overreacting because it just gives the right ammo for their nonsense gun. Because the voters the dems are losing, who barely pay attention, will have stronger reactions to trash like this than they have to nuanced defenses of bidens record in the post pandemic economy.
But the issue is that Democratic representatives get punished for the actions of a tiny subset of their voters.
If we're talking about Tim Poole in relation to this post, then his "punishment" is still just someone willing to abandon his principles because of the screeching of annoying people. Still a spineless idiot.
If we're talking about the electorate as a whole, the blame lies on the DNC and the entrenched corporatists who continuously handwave away the concerns of the working class and pander to the screeching harpies, billionaire class, and supposed GOP "moderates".
That makes for very schizophrenic campaign messaging. Which is their fault, and why they need to be voted out.
Yeah, I know. Things shouldn't be like that but they fucking are. I think I could have been more precise with my criticism. Instead of the left I maybe should have said msnbc and the type of liberalism it represents. I never watch it but I did during the election. It's not hard to figure out why people hate them. These are the people who barely pay attention and not voting for democrats.
I would define it as "corporatist neo-liberalism", which is the real enemy from within of what remains of the political left of the United States.
Wonder how would they react to this:

One of the basic tenets of the left is also that you don't need to be accepted/accepting. People who leave the left because someone insulted them didn't get the message in the first place.
Are we talking about the same left that shits their collective kink diaper when: "Trump say mean thing on Truth Social!! He mean bad man!!"?
An insult and an executive order are two entirely different things.
Is Trump issuing executive orders on Truth Social?
Did Trump throw Biden out of the White House WWE style and claim the presidency before being sworn in?!
Cause I would love to see that! Obviously it's illegal and he would need to go to jail, but it would be VERY funny!
Edit: Honestly, I'm not even sure what you are trying to argue. Just wanted to make some jokey jokes. My point is that you said one of the tenants of the left is that you don't need to be accepted or accepting......except that this is literally the entire fucking platform of the left! You all even try your hardest to ruin the lives of people that AREN'T meeting your nebulous standards for "acceptance". So I'm not sure what you are talking about.
Oh joy, Schrodinger's joke. And you're exploiting the ambiguous nature of English to pretend to misunderstand the difference in interpersonal relationships and state oppression.
Please just go away. You're ridiculous.
Trump is a Fascist
