      No one on the left is voting for Trump! We all know what happens to leftists under fascism. Read the “First they came…” poem. We’re fucking first.

      I am saying to stop nagging leftists and start focusing on suburban moms or whomever. Leftists upset about mass slaughter are never why Democrats lose. It’s people upset about grocery bills and shit like that.

        There’s not a single literate leftist who doesn’t understand that centrists will ultimately sell us out to make a deal with the devil that is fascism. That’s how it’s gone in every country where fascism took hold. It’s part of the process and we know we’ll have to be the resistance.

        No one even expect centrists to do the right thing when push comes to shove. But quit nagging leftists on the way. We’re really not the problem in this situation.

        “We are fucking first” when talking about voting for a man who literally funds genocide with billions of dollars. Amazing. The “first” you are talking about are the Palestinians. It’s obvious that the US politicians don’t give a fuck and would rather see them killed.

          And the reason Hamas in in power in Palestine is because Bibi was so afraid of the leftwing alternative that he funded Hamas himself to take them down. So yes, they come for the left first.

      Why are you so sure about that? Isn’t Trump Putin’s puppet? Doesn’t Putin support Hamas?

      Why would Trump go against the wishes of his puppetmaster, Putin?
