Curl in the 1930s-1940s:Â "So much for the tolerant left! The left only have themselves to blame for this, their authoritarian attitude for the past decade provided the perfect conditions for the Nazis to flourish!" Spare me the lectures about Democrats rhetoric whilst you ignore everything that Trump and his supporters have said and done over the past few years and only ever bother to comment when it's to lecture Democrats, have I ever seen you comment on anything that Trump or his supporters have said or done? Because all I see is you coming in here to shout about Democrats not speaking kindly. Yes, Trump is a fascist and America just voted for a fascist and those who are aware of this fact, knowingly voted for a fascist, so what do that say about them? Some of them clearly do love his fascist agenda, some of them just don't care about voting a fascist in power if it benefits them (likely the majority), but I will say that some of them may not have known everything he has said and done or what others who worked closest to him have said about him, especially since some people didn't even know Joe Biden wasn't running anymore. Some of you seem so surprised to find out that humans can be incredibly selfish, easily influenced and yes, even fascist, Lol. Authoritarian Leftists...Smdh....Lol. She lost largely because of inflation, not because people were called a fascist, JFC. Lmao. That's a peak online take. |
In this very thread I have called Trump "awful" and a "dumpster fire":

The truth is, a big part of Trump's appeal is that he makes many people who feel disenfranchised feel seen and heard. It doesn't matter that if he's actually going to solve their problems; he makes them feel that he will.
If the left are ever going to defeat Trumpism, they can't afford to keep just dismissing anyone who supports him as just irredeemable evil Nazis who can't be reasoned with. Doing so doesn't confront the root problem, it just sweeps it under the rug where it continues to fester and grow.
We've seen this play out twice now; his base is written off as just a handful of fascist nutters only to then beat expectations come election day.
I'm not a Trump supporter, I'm not even a conservative, but clearly the left's approach to Trumpism is a losing strategy.
