Fulchrum posted:Imagine not actually caring about the success of literally any of the causes or people you claim to care about, and gladly handing Republicans all the power just so you can justify your smug feeling of superiority. This would be a much more powerful thesis if the Democrats hadn't done this for the last nine years and consistently lost elections until they were at record low levels of power in both federal and state governments.

Also the "purity test" nonsense when conservative Democrats would rather lose any election as long as they didn't have to move left on any issue their backers cared about.

Condiv posted:it's always revealing when they hate green party voters over republican voters like this Republicans never, ever punch right. Ever. Because they know that's their base, it's the direction they want to take the country. Those are their allies. Democrats consistently punch left, they attack their own base, they call their own professed values unworkable or impractical. I think that's a seriously overlooked factor in why the Republicans dominate the national and most state governments, while the Democrats are an electoral joke.

Also imagine the concept of "Blue State Republicans" being able to poo poo over the party platform and call Trump an idiot or that maybe they would support Obama and how long that would last.

The answers is centrists honestly hate the left more than many Republicans, any talk about "working together" is usually followed by demanding the left to give up on whatever stance it has. Centrists don't want to let the left alone to its own devices, but smash it into little pieces and incorporate whatever remains with appropriate messaging.

hahah I just noticed the title of this thread. It's amazing how whiny some people get about the fact that even a minority of the American left cares about the politics of the party that is supposed to represent them. "Whiny" is really the best word I can think of, because it's just pathetic; it reminds me of white Christians who whine about being an oppressed minority.

Rent-A-Cop posted:Unless y'all are doing it weird we definitely have fish fries in the South. Down in Florida, we just called them "fish". Though according to my friends from New York, merely having fried fish is not enough to qualify as a "fish fry" - it has to be some very specific arrangement of fried fish and bread and some other poo poo, or else it doesn't count.

"Whiny" is really the best word I can think of, because it's just pathetic; it reminds me of white Christians who whine about being an oppressed minority. Anything to maintain the bubble. On another forum, I get a ton of pushback if I say that the Democrats need to win back the working class. Some would even suggest that I’m racist because the Democrats won the votes of working class minorities, but forget that the minority vote has been captured and they don’t really do anything for minorities. In fact, they have actively screwed over minorities and depress their own base with their triangulation. Meanwhile, those same posters calling me racist will vehemently defend Manchin and want to attract Republican voters of a certain class. theCalamity fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Aug 8, 2018 |

It's almost funny how blatant it is as propaganda. All use the same picture that's meant to evoke a sense of "look at Sanders, all frustrated and upset at how his movement is FAILING!"
