As I said, a link to anything remotely like what you accused them of saying.

Their argument in that one was that holding democrats accountable is necessary to get them to change their positions, which will in turn help them win.

Try again. Or just admit you made it up whole cloth, as y'all do.

"Cut a liberal and a fascist bleeds" and "Liberals are perfectly happy voting for Democrats despite the genocide" doesn't say "Harris voters are fascists" to you?

Yeah but they didn't say exactly what you said they said so neener neener you're a weener

I wonder why they didn't include that in their initial post? 🤔 Could it be that there was intent to mischaracterize and deceive? 🤔🤔🤔

They’re using the definition of “liberal” as neoliberal or classic liberal, as in basically, capitalists. It gets confusing since in the US the term means center-left people with a focus on improving lives for racial and gender minorities and women. But also these “omg I’m a communist bro so leftist” people like do the “both sides are the same” crap and claim that democrats and republicans are equivalent because they’re both “liberals”, as in capitalists, as if we’ll have a choice about that anytime soon in the us. Also they completely ignore that the democrats are more likely to enact socialist policies while republicans bitterly oppose them.

"Cut a liberal and a fascist bleeds" is a common expression. "Liberals are perfectly happy voting for Democrats despite the genocide” is just factually true. If that means the same thing as "Harris voters are fascists," then, uh, if the shoe fits wear it I guess.

And where are your links then if it is factually true?

Where are my links that liberals are voting for Harris? Uhh, if you really need them, here are some:

1 2 3

Would you like me to provide sources that the earth revolves around the sun or that a bachelor is an unmarried man? I don't understand how you could spend 5 minutes on here without finding someone who's voting Harris in spite of the genocide.
