I’m this close to losing it on the liberals in the comments. All they do is mock leftists with their moral superiority and closed mindedness. They’re never even open to hearing leftists out on their views on electoral strategy & long term strategy
What’s the obsession w needing to vote Kamala here. Opposing a genocide is a very valid reason to vote 3rd party. It doesn’t make them neutral? Why do many think voting for the president is gonna to bring about substantive change? WE have to do the work

Your “long term strategy” is ruining the lives of people affected by trump’s madness. People have already died from ICE and more will follow. Some corporate neoliberal establishment is still bad but they we could have have at least made them apply pressure on Israel to give the Palestinians full statehood instead of giving the Israelis basically FULL CONTROL over us through trump and his sycophants. We aren’t pawns in your political strategy that involves Trump doing whatever he wants

No, continuing to uphold and whitewash the most violent empire is? Obama has deported the most of any admin. You think democrats don’t support ice? The democrats have never wanted Palestinians to have a state not to mention a two state solution is still a very violent solution Why do you wanna let democrats do whatever they want then? I say no to that

whatever republicans are doing is far worse than what any neoliberal democrat has ever done. With Dems you are at least able to influence them Unless you’re one of those accelerationist types who just wants to maximize chaos to burn the system down and start over. Newsflash the people who suffer the most from that chaos will be the ones who are already oppressed.

I wish you were able to influence democrats 😭 they’re so god damn stubborn. They didn’t even move an inch on the genocide and in fact are going further right. Their conclusion from the election is that they need to go even further right. I don’t want to maximize chaos, I want an end to capitalism and western hegemony before it destroys the planet. The continuation of capitalism is killing more people than anything else is

I guess you got everything you wanted with Trump then. State owned corporations, end of free market with fudging stats, end of American international presence (fully Israeli international power now), American isolationism and a multipolar world (Russian and Chinese neocolonialism of Africa).

Free market has been destroyed by trump’s preferential treatment of companies. What exactly is the leftist plan for implementing left leaning ideas that can be achieved with trump in office that could possibly be worth the destruction of our country which will harm the very people we care about and how is it BETTER for him to be in office over Harris bc of that

Trump reminds me more of a Latin American banana republic dictator or a Saddam Hussein style Baathist ngl
