That’s the problem. Most of the far left idealists don’t give a shit between elections. This happens every cycle. And every cycle they never learn.
Citation please. The most politically active people I know are well to the left of me. The handful of tankies I know in real life are the most active.
Who’s their candidate? For anything?
PSL's De La Cruz
Wow. President.
You know, of course, there’s no chance at all, right? Like, maybe start for 2028? That’s at least time to ramp up?
If they live in a solid blue or red state then there's no harm in voting for whoever they want.
If you live in PA, MI, WI, MN, AZ, GA etc then you should vote for Biden
If you live in Oklahoma or California then it doesn't really matter which presidential candidate you vote for.
Citation? Really? Most of social media is backed up. Go ahead and see how much the SJW’s were caring about Palestine in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2023.
You do know they have been in conflict since 1948, right? You all act like this shit is new. And it shows in the fact that NONE of you gave a shit about it until now.
SJWs are not leftwing
Keep telling yourself that. Most people claiming to be “leftwing” aren’t leftwing anyway.
There is nothing left about 2014 tumblr and its consequences. That was not a socialist or working class zeitgeist. And very likely was largely astroturfed by ruling class propagandists
"Israel's been doing this for 76 years!" isn't the comeback you think it is. Nor is, "Oh, genocide is where you draw the line?"
So…. No response on where you were before Oct 7th? Okay, how about this.
What were you upset about in 2020? Or… 2016?
Because we know you couldn’t have been bothered to care in between those years.
I made my case. You all suspiciously only care during election years when Trump is posturing. And you suspiciously are only critical of his opponents.
I voted for Hillary in 2016 and Biden in 2020. I was arrested at a Trump protest and shot by a wooden bullet at a George Floyd protest. I've volunteered in local political initiatives to make our local government more progressive and more accountable to voters.
You know nothing about me, so you just make up things that you think discredits me? What have you done other than punch left on Lemmy?
I doubt all of that. But you do you.
