    You forgot that they will also claim that it is the fault of the opposition to fascism party that they didn’t “convince them to vote for them” even though they had already made up their mind ages before the election even started that they would never vote for the opposition to fascism party because they don’t actually care about [popular single issue] or stopping fascists. They just want to feel like special little snowflakes who are part of the “revolution” and want to see the whole system destroyed and the violence that goes along with it because they’re simply bored.

    See the other reply for a perfect example.

      What opposition? The Democrats helped pass the Laken Riley Act. Schumer is calling for bipartisanship. Biden told Trump, “Welcome Home.” The only people who didn’t go to the inauguration and clap like seals are AOC and Bernie Sanders, and one of them isn’t even a Democrat. They’re not opposition. They’re collaboration.

            Are you claiming he was the only one not clapping?

            Pelosi, of all people, didn’t even attend. So I don’t know why you’re trying to intentionally spread lies that Democrats are rolling out the red carpet when it’s leftists who put Trump into office in the first place. In addition to handing Congress to Republicans. Not to mention are to blame for the first Trump presidency allowing him to stack the Supreme Court as well for decades effectively putting an end to abortion rights for women. Leftists should be deeply ashamed at this point. I don’t know how y’all live with yourself. Oh that’s right, horse-blinders and blame shifting.

              No hun, I’m saying that the left are the only ones offering resistance to the fascists taking over America. You see hun, while AOC openly calls Trump a rapist and has been warning about Republican fascism for months, Pelosi claimed we needed a, “strong Republican party,” and torpedoed AOC’s bid for the oversight committee (in favor of an obscure geriatric who is literally dying of throat cancer). While Bernie has been warning about a rising oligarchy for years, hun, Schumer is calling for bipartisanship and allowing his members to vote for a racist immigration bill.

              Also, hun, is very telling that you’ve sidestepped all of the substantive examplse I gave of the Democrats have enabled the flourishing fascist regime and only focused on the superficial aspects of opposing fascism. It’s almost like liberals (like you, hun) can’t imagine any kind of resistance other than a performative one. Isn’t that funny, hun?

                Lol. Your idea of resistance, hunty, is letting the fascists take power. I’d choose rational liberals over your fantasies of revolution any day hunty. Get bent, hunty.

                  Hun, I voted for Harris, hun. The thing is, hun, I blame the people in power, hun, for running a bad campaign, hun. It was their fucking job to win, hun, and they did a shitty job, hun. So you can piss and moan at everyone else, hun, or you can turn your anger on the powerful people that let this happen, hun.

                  And by the way, hun, I notice you’re still not addressing the fact that Laken Riley wouldn’t have passed if the so called, “fascist opposition party,” hadn’t let 12 of their Senators roll over and vote for it, hun. So maybe, hun, you should pull your head of of the sand and demand more from your party, hun, since you seem to think they’re opposing fascism, hun.

                  Oh, and hun? if you think using, “hun,” is, “hunty,” maybe you should have said it, hun. Don’t ya think, hun?
