Well if you want anything to get better you need to find common ground with those people and have a united front against facism. Even if you don’t like or agree with them.
The reality is, some people struggled to vote for Kamala, not because she is just as bad (she is obviously not) or because they were paid bad actor agents of the far right, but simply because, despite being the better of two options, she just wasn’t left enough to represent their views.
I’m not saying this is the correct approach or they did the right thing here. But the varying degrees of left constantly arguing with each other creates more and more room for far right fascists to trample us. You don’t have to agree with them, but you do need to organize with them to make any real change.
It’s that, or yell into the Lemmy void ineffectually at people who are closer aligned to you than the actual problem.
Most of us have been, and will continue to be, engaging in direct action in our day-to-day lives.
Yeah keep it up because it’s obviously going great 👍
It is for my community. Liberals being apathetic about the status quo isn’t my responsibility
Sounds great, where exactly is this thriving community? Grand Delusions, MI?

My beef is with purported leftists online that did their damnedest to dissuade people from voting at all.
