Pretty wild that these leftists consistently have leftist criticisms of the liberal candidate, I guess that means they support the conservative candidate.

Why do you want a discourse where the blue candidate can't be criticized just because the red candidate is worse?

[-] MindTraveller@lemmy.ca -3 points 3 months ago

Cause I don't want trans people or west bank Palestinians to die!

If you believe you need censorship of any criticism for your candidate to win maybe you have less faith in her than we leftists do.

But yes we're all Russian agents.

Political discourse should not be silenced for red or for blue.

I have very low faith in her, because I'm very far left. You liberals think you can win everything with principles and rational discussion. But contrary to what Capitalist Economics 101 told you, people aren't rational. There's a lot of people who won't vote against fascism, if voting against fascism feels bad. So, we have a political responsibility to make voting against fascism feel good for the average voter. When the election is over and Donald is out for another 4 years, we can switch to the harshest criticism you can imagine for issues like her denying medical care to a trans inmate. Until then, let's tactically shut the fuck up. Because I don't want to see you risking genocide again. Ignore the instinct to just do whatever you want without thinking, and commit to actually enacting praxis like us leftists.

They are a "Soulist," unfortunately they are being 100% genuine.

Good one! Had to remove my downvote when I realised what that place is.
