It's rich for you to evaluate my desire to engage with reality from a person who's trying to defend a party that produces 80 year old candidates from the primaries and then wondering why young people won't vote. Historians are going to have a field day dissecting your delusions.
I'm not defending them. I criticize them often. What I am doing, is commenting on your childish behavior.
I know why young people don't vote. Especially those that have been radicalized like yourself. With no strategic/critical thinking skills. Ain't none of em good.
Bulllllllshit. I can tell from your comment lecturing young people and leftists is where all your focus is.
Take that energy to moderate voters electing procorporate trash in the primaries. Those are the people who lack strategy.
Lol, I'm a Dejacque Libertarian/anarchist. They aren't going to listen to me either. Do you are more than welcome to keep proving my points. And acting the victim pretending that it's all because you're somehow so much more left than anyone else LOL. That sort of rhetoric is only a victim of itself.
I mean, you can call yourself whatever you want bud. But if you only spend your time lecturing young people and leftists about strategy you're indistinguishable from another moderate democrat voter electing pro-corporate trash in every election.
If you think having strategy makes you a moderate. That's a you problem. And one I'm glad not to have. Everyone needs strategy if they want to get something accomplished. And you'll learn that someday.
Your "strategy" is the same strategy the moderates have had for decades. It's a failure.
Here's mine: I don't vote for procorporate trash. Period.
LOL such bad reasoning. I'm not fond of much of what they've done but I'll give them this much they've actually accomplished things where people with your mentality haven't. Good luck with that:-)
They elevated Trump in the 2016 Republican primaries and then lost to him in the general election.
Your ability to assess the success of a strategy is suspect sir.
And your petulant childish behavior is without bounds. Listen I've never once questioned your commitment or political alignment. Yes I've commented how you behavior is childish. Which it is and that's one thing. But I've never questioned your intent. Just the efficacy of it. And you've proven over and over again by impuning upon my commitment calling myself and others no true lefty. Because we disagree with you. You could not be displaying anymore petulant childish behavior.
Even your last response here was completely disingenuous purposely missing the point. Yes they f***** themselves over with trump. But on the regular they actually get things accomplished. Whereas people like yourself who constantly harp on others, denying their identities. Are the exact reason why people in general don't take the left very seriously and why the left as a group struggles to get anything accomplished. Have fun with your Purity tests.
