Marxists didn't sabotage the Democrats, the Democrats sabotaged themselves. Third party voters swayed 0 elections, especially not swing states. The truth is that the Democrats failed to rile up their base, Harris stopped doing what was effective like calling Republicans weird, then shifted to Liz Cheney endorsements to court the right.

The idea that the .1-.5% of votes that went to Stein or De La Crúz swayed an election where Harris handily lost 1-2% at minimum in nearly every swing state caused her loss is laughable. It was not the Leftists making any difference on the election, it was the failure of the Democratic Party and the Harris campaign.

Where was Medicare for All? Where was "Build Back Better?" Where were the solid, progressive policies that encouraged massive voter turnout in 2020 that evaporated in 2024? Gone, from both the campaign and the voterbase.

Whether you identify as a leftist or not, blaming a tiny group on swaying a massive election where non-voters would have beaten both Harris and Trump is silly. Look at the vote counts, the fact is that the Dems failed by their own lack of merit. This is the first time in several decades where a Republican has won the popular vote, the real, material numbers cannot be ignored. They are real, and need to be taken seriously.

I know tensions are high and we all want to play the blame game, but doing so won’t solve our problems. I’m angry about the same things, but I know that attacking someone who’s ostensibly on our side does nothing but cause further division between us. That’s what the fascists want.

Right now, it’s okay to grieve. We’re all dealing with intense emotions that can overwhelm our better judgement. But OP is right - in order to look forward, we must first look out for each other. The establishment has failed us. We are all we’ve got now.

classic move, blame everyone except the party that ran the most dogshit campaign I've ever seen in my life. a tale as old as time

I'm a (libertarian) socialist and I voted for Kamala and told others to do the same.

Do you have a source for the assertion that socialists not voting for Kamala were a large factor? I know I've heard that Muslim Americans were one demographic who, even though they were a fairly left (of what the U.S. considers center) leaning, didn't vote for Kamala. But to the extent that they're "responsible for Trump's win", I don't know that that is on "socialists" per se.

The group you are speaking of are not now washing their hands, they went to rallies and protested to have a change of position on Palestine which was not forthcoming and now that candidate is out of a job.

The US supports a genocide, people are entitled to conscientiously object to deplorable actions.
