Let me know what you accomplished at these events, even if it was having visceral flashbacks to liberal dogshit circa 2021 and realizing I am always right thx

    I get where some of these remarks are coming from, e.g. “we are crashing the event”. It would be sick if that was happening, but in that case these are the most likely people to hand you over to the cops in the first place, assembled en masse. My problem is there’s insufficient difference between western left groups and the democrats, whose events they are supposedly crashing. The appeal is “hey, we could hook more voters with common sense progressivism (DSA)/resurrection of New Deal policies and rallying with Amy Klobuchar outside the Capitol (CPUSA)/achieving decolonization through NGO activism and consciousness-raising with our Beloved Repentant Veterans™ (PSL)!” and the time for taking that shit (and Jill Stein etcetera) seriously was maybe twenty years ago. I get Palestine has caused a lot of progressives to flail around looking for something else, it makes sense.

    Anyways I already said I was done arguing about this which is why these posts are going directly into the 🕳️ but maybe one or two people get something out of it
