    Dems spend all day hammering Rs, but if you are very online in mostly lefty spaces, you only hear about criticisms of the left. Its the online spaces that cause the distortion in views, not that its gonna change.

      They’ve been backing a genocide and demonizing the university protests. That’s very real, physical things that are on the right the Democrats are doing.

      I think the important takeaway here is that you may hammer R’s all you want, but if you want to rely on the left electorate, you have to serve the left electorate.

      So the fight really is between “let’s at least hold blatant fascism” and “let’s tech Dems to listen a bit so that on their next election they would actually cater to the left instead of being lesser evil”.

      Because right now Dems are just that - lesser evil that doesn’t care to align with the leftists.

      I have no balls in this game, I’m not even a US citizen, but I see the point they’re trying to make.
