lemmy.ml sucks, if anyone is controlling the narrative it's them. Some kind of bizaar nest of liberals that would rather have this trump disaster than vote for Kamala because she's not left enough. We're on the same team people, wake up!

    Don’t confuse ML’ers with liberals, progressives or even leftists - they are none of those things.

    There is a reason they are derisively referred to as ‘Tankies’; they’re the sort of people who would cheer on the tanks during the Tianamin Square massacre.

    Their entire world-view starts and ends at US/The West = Bad, China/Russia = Good. Everything else beyond that point is largely pageantry. While they do hold some views that overlap with leftist principles (pro-Palestine, pro-worker etc.); they overlap with far-right (pro-Fascist) principles that will over-write others.

    Lol Dems aren't on the "same team", its more like begrudging temporary allies in a WW2 scenario. Like how the Tankies temporary sided with the Liberals against fascists. Same here, but this time the "allies" are the progressives and the "centrist" dems, against the fascists/tankies, these centrist/corporate dems aren't really our friend lmao. Primary the fuck out of them, but vote for the Dems in the general.

    Edit: Phrasing
