    Oh, as if Bernie Sanders and AOC are silent on the issue or something?

    The argument is well known in the public. Republicans simply label that thinking as socialist or communist and then the far left is easily shut down.

    But hey, maybe if you talk more about the rich again, Occupy Wall Street will happen again and increase the power of the Tea Party even harder. Look at history and think about who actually benefited from that argument.

      You’re throwing many peanuts from the peanut gallery without actually offering a more viable alternative solution. I’m alllll ears. So what is it, go to the right of Republicans? Oppress some minorities? What shall it be? Capitulate with fascists? Meet lunacy half way?

      Talk to me.

        Yeah. That’s the fucking point of this topic. Are you even looking at what topic you are in?

        But yeah, let’s demonize the Democrat candidates even more. That way they’re even weaker come 2026 and 2028. Brilliant.

            I said it right there and right then.

            Support the fucking candidate. All this backstabbing shit (see cartoon above) is not useful. Yall didn’t support the candidate and then we lost. In contrast, Republicans can support Trump.

              The thing is, you can’t just magically will this to be, for it fundamentally misunderstands the ideological differences of the left and eight. Republicans have always been more tribalistic. It’s easier because their entire banner revolves around conformity as opposed to solidarity.

              I didn’t backstab any candidate. I wanted Sanders, but I voted for Hillary; I wanted 3 other candidates in 2020 but voted for Biden. I voted for Harris even though I thought Whitmer or Michelle would easily win.

              Besides the issue isn’t even that Democrats didn’t vote; it’s that Independents and Republicans weren’t convinced by the policy wonk buzzwords like, “opportunity economy.”

              I’ll ask you rhetorically: Do you know what one of the biggest determinants for who someone voted for was this election?
