He's saying you give more attention to progressives who won't kowtow to democrats in their speech, when they vote for democrats with their votes. The real issue is a system that let's a R win when they don't get the majority of votes (that last part is my addition)

The only thing I’m asking for is voting for Dems - specifically to stop trump and his evil horde of idiot rapists.

Speechify however one likes, I’m more than likely in agreement - but there is a significant number of commenters specifically positioning themselves as “left” or “progressive” who very specifically refused to vote Democratic despite necessarily punching themselves in the crotch out of ignorance.

If someone’s onboard with voting to defeat MAGA but wants to rag on the Dems or the administration for less-than-whatever, bring it. I 100% support that.
