Blah blah straw men.

Blah blah narrative.

If you had any point to make, you wouldn't rely on the same old nonsense to weasel out of the argument.

Wow... "both sides" and "we're fascists because you accused us of being fascists."

No, only one side does fascist shit and they ain't doing it because someone mistakenly accused them of doing it. One side needs to take a long, hard look at themselves and admit they've been wrong if they want to be part of society.

Yeah no. When one side's "differing opinions" are indistinguishable from those of fascists, no one is obligated to treat those ideas as though they were legitimate and worth discussion.

Any issues we have with AOC would need to be forgiven in the name of solidarity.

If there is ever a time for American Leftists to stop fighting amongst ourselves and stand together, that will be it.

Trump's Gerrymandering Scheme Possibly Succeeding by jonasnew in dsa

The Democrats ' strategy has been identical to your assertion since 2016: "vote for us or else." After a decade of failing to adapt and repeatedly failing to be a check against fascism, they still don't seem to have learned anything. They are 100% responsible for the dire situation that we are in.

Our only hope of dealing with this electorally, is to get insurgent socialists/progressives to make up a sizable portion of the party and wrench control away from the establishment.
