Why is it that when democrats don't get what they want they lash out against the actual left, instead of the far-rightists (who are actually making things worse)?

I still see democrats blaming "Bernie bros" for costing them the election, which is seriously wrong.

I wouldn't be surprised if eventually some of them begin to blame "the woke" for their defeats

"History will not be kind to us"

I mean, the US also supported the Guatemalan genocide and appartheid South Africa, yet nobody gives a crap.

First of all, pretty much all of the indigenous city is gone. All of the bulidings are from colonial or posterior times. And second, cities are built on water all the time (Vence, Suzhou, Amsterdam) And they managed to subsit just fine. The problem came when all the infrastructure used by the natives was destroyed and the solution used was to drain the lake, which has only led to a massive ammount of problems.

Who told you that? The only one who is still on Israel's side is the US

If you want something manufactured in a country that isn't commiting human rights violations then you are not going to find it (not even the US, which is also funding a genocide right now)

You think people defeated the Nazis with just words?

The word "liberal" is associated with the right everywhere except the US.

"the scope creep of feminism that causes it to encompass issues like disability rights and economic inequality, I think feminism is becoming indistinguishable from leftism."

Why do you say that like it's a bad thing?

You got called a fascist becasue you wrote:

"12 percent of Bernie’s supporters stayed home in 2020."

and

"Why would I lecture anyone fucking over leftists? Fuck socialism."

Which is are pretty much rightist talking points.

Edit: You also said that leftists and POC need to be "put in their place" whatever that means, so I'm not surprised you got called that.
