It’s certainly a Brand insult.

I don't know what this means, can someone was explain the reference?

Criticism is not evaluated by where it comes from, but by whether it's true or false. If you don't put truth first, you don't get to have a say in anything anyway.

The primary difference is that Republicunts completely discount any thing that is left wing as impossible to achieve, often by using circular logic that boils down to a faulty appeal to authority (religion), with a light sprinkling of racism and white superiority rhetoric mixed in.

Leftists actually use verifiable data points and publically available economic figures mixed with objective reasoning to levy their critiques.

Reading comprehension includes understanding the implied context of the words, not just being able to pronounce them properly.

Would depend on the content of the critique Id think, like, if your criticism of the dems is that theyre far too conservative, thats not the sort of thing that someone that considers conservatism a good thing would say. If you give some vague attack on their moral character or intelligence or such, that lines up more with how the right would also criticism them, and therefore invites more confusion.

We criticize them for vastly different things though… The right says they’re communists and we say they’re not communist enough (or at all, really).

It's easy to tell as the right's criticism is they eat babies, they're demon spawn, welfare queens, nothing true just emotionally applied rhetoric. Where as the left would say they're barely better than Republicans in regards to wars and keeping them going in perpetuity, they could pass universal healthcare instead of what the ACA was but through either naivety or incompetence reached out to Republicans to help make a plan "both parties would be happy with" for the Republicans not to vote for it at all.

Yes, this screenshot is just another “If you don’t understand my unqualified opinion you’re just too stupid to figure it out” hot take by someone thinking they’re the smartest person in the room.

No, criticizing the dems doesn’t automatically mean criticism of anyone to the right of them.

Maybe you do. Anyone with a brain realizes real criticism from fake and manufactured criticism.

If you are too dumb to realize it, or worried about those too dumb to realize it, write your own posts. No offense but you are wrong headed and I don't care how many half wits endorsed your point here.

The other thing is that some people seem to only drag dems and anyone main stream calls “progressive.”

Given the majority of the US voted for Trump,

Doubt. Without checking I would guess the majority didn't vote at all.

When did the majority start voting at all?

so you would have a further rightward DNC?

just because you are not the worst thing ever does not give you immunity from criticism.

the democrats SUCK. wether the republicans suck harder is not relevant and does not make the critique less true, and voting blue no matter who has given us candidates that would have been republicans 10 years ago

25% did, almost 50% didn't show up.

Not only that. Often the purpose of shitting on Dems without mentioning the GOP is to serve the GOP.

Not always, but more often than not here.

Adding the layer of "fuck the GOP" helps, along with being specific about individuals when appropriate.

Exactly this - if I don’t know you personally well enough to know that you “of course” would never support republicans, then I have no way to tell from which direction you are attacking the Dems.

Once we reached a point where it was no longer safe to assume that Nazi shit and overt racism, bigotry, etc. was sarcastic, we all had to stop assuming that anyone knew we were better than that. That’s also when /s tags became absolutely necessary again, even when saying some absolutely bonkers shit. I long for the days when I could safely assume that no one was that stupid, and that they would assume I wasn’t either.

fisher price baby brain

It should be said just for good measure. It's also kind of cathartic. Fuck the GOP.
