Intentional misinterpretation.
Democrats spend more time attacking the left than they EVER have Republicans, because their platforms are 95% the same. You don't get to insult half your base, tell them their priorities are bullshit baby dreams, move further right from your already mid right position, then blame those people for your loss.
By telling leftists to eat shit, you're saying you don't need leftists to win. If leftists are the single cause behind every dem loss then its probably time to change your platform to cater to leftists (or just admit that you're fascists that'll take the red fascism instead of the blue fascism before you shift left even a little bit.)
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.
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.
Keep cheerleading for fascism, buddy. :)
Your entire argument and political stance IS ALREADY FASCIST, buddy. :)
