    That right-wing/russian/tankie propaganda really did a number to leftist’s critical thinking skills and turned you into single issue (non)voters.

    It’s sad to see.

      No it’s understanding the very basic mechanics of how elections work, something you can count on those who will reliably caucus with fascists to perpetually misunderstand because white supremacist requires them to not understand.

        When leftists fail to have a single viable candidate again and the choices are between Tucker Carlson and Gavin Newsom you guys are going to scream both sides are the same again and throw the election to Tucker.

          Your only logical conclusion then, since voters don’t vote how you want them to, is to demand a better candidate then Gavin Newsom. Anything other than that is you sponsoring fascism (again), because you know now, that both a) voters aren’t going to vote for a Gavin Newsom, and b) voters can’t be changed to vote how you think they should be.

              You have a path to winning elections and you are choosing to take a path which is demonstrated to lose elections. I see idiots who think voter behavior will some how magically shift to their own personal interpretation of what “strategic” or “harm reduction” is taken to mean, and handing the elections to fascists time and time again by expecting voters to show up for a lessor evil.

              Those, because I oppose fascism, are the idiots.

                If you opposed fascism, you would have done anything to not make it happen. Now you do have a fascist government.

                  Well if you were genuine in your intent to stop fascism, you would see addressing their single issues as the highest of priorities.

                  AND THIS is why we do not believe the genuineness of your claim. You don’t oppose fascism. Even within your own framework, your are inconsistent, because you aren’t looking to stop fascism, you are looking for an excuse not to try.
