    I haven't "moved to" anything, I'm just crossposting and explaining a meme illustrating a valid grievance with Neoliberal politicians.

    95 of them voted to honor the fascist scumbag

    In contrast, 27 voting to stop selling weapons to Israel is treated as a fucking miracle.

    And not that it matters, but I'm nothing close to a tankie. Check the sidebar of the community you're in, dumbass.

    I also remember when they all stood for and applauded an actual Nazi in Parliament.

    The "anti-tankie" people don't talk about that very much do they?

    Sitting on a fence is why we are where we are.

    They are delusional.

    Is it your impression that most of the Democrats are anything other than "conservative" in any normal political spectrum?

    I objected to the meme but I actually think it's completely accurate as applied to most Democrats in congress or groups of people who think generally like them. It honestly just didn't even occur to me that by "liberals" you might mean that grouping though.

    normal political spectrum

    What does it matter where you are on an arbitrary spectrum if you're still participating in genocide?

    Me: "Oh, you're right, yeah most of the Democrats in Washington are complicit in genocide. Looked at in that way I agree with your meme."

    You: NO NO NO I WANT TO ARGUE YOU MUST BE WRONG ABOUT SOMETHING

    Idk how often it needs to be pointed out that Americans dont have some special definition of liberal that has shed itself of all the problems of their European progenitors - they've simply forgotten all the ways in which liberalism runs ideological cover for exploitation.

    "I agree with this meme if I detach myself of the liberal label" seems like a moment of self-awareness to me. Im not trying to discourage it, but I think it's important to look at how electoralism has broken people's understanding of political discourse.

    In your addled mind, what is a tankie? Anyone to the left of Chuck Schumer? Anyone who isn't a fascist but also doesn't automatically support Hakeem Jeffries? Anyone who disagrees with your perspective and isn't a fascist?

    For the record, I abhor tankies and their authoritarian bullshit. You can "make note" of that if you will.

    break up unity on the left

    You mean challenge Neoliberal supremacy of everything to the left of fascism. Neoliberalism isn't even left of center ffs! It's the ideology of Ronald Reagan, Joe Lieberman and Hakeem Jeffries.

    make me fucking sick.

    Nah, sounds like you were plenty fucking sick already 🤷

    So do us both a favor and don't fucking @me your bullshit again.

    I wasn't going to, but now that you're asking, I'll waste a few more sentences on your obtuse ass 😄

    Fucking tankie bitch.
