    The most annoying thing is that they proudly see themselves being on “the left.”

    Like, the arrogance of loudly subscribing to an ideological camp without actually educating themselves on the bare minimum of what that even means.

      I know, I hate it when fascists and conservatives (saying the same thing twice) lump them in as “the left” too.

      It’s harmful as fuck because it reinforces their ideological barrier that nothing further left of neoshitteralism exists and makes us look bad by lumping us in with mildly centrist/center-right fools.

      Even worse when they self describe themselves lol

        God I’m watching them all unravel out of desperation. They’re still posting these selfies, even from states that are called already. This is honestly really sad to watch.

        You would hope this would be a radicalizing moment, but then again, I won’t be surprised if they just keep digging their heads deeper in sand. It really is like trying to turn people away from an abusive spouse.
