i would like to see them become capable of self-reflection and demand better from their dogshit politicians, but they prefer to act like a cult.

I would like to see .ml types be more understanding that their all or nothing mindset isn't going anywhere and try to build more solidarity overall.

    'solidarity' as a demand that i stop criticizing democrats is not solidarity, what you're asking for is for us to be more disciplined by that party and subordinate to it.

    solidarity is reciprocal by definition, what you ask for is not. feels like you're using it as a buzzword to extract loyalty

    This is a shifting of the goal posts as that was never the discussion. If you read carefully:

    What I am saying is that you are taking a shit on people who are organizing. Sure its not your preferred method, but you should back them up anyway. You don't have to run or canvas the campaign, but it really takes no effort from you to vote in primaries and elections. Your words and many others in .ml are counter productive to building leftist movements.

    Blue no matter who has always been a last resort anyway.
