Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

I'm not seeing this working well for them in the current climate.
Maybe they should have thought of this before the genocide started?
Them and Pelosi just got Schiff into the general...
That's the worst thing about them, they put their money in primaries where the money goes further. Then when the general comes, it's two people that took AIPAC money, there's no way they lose.
They only care about aid to Israel, so especially with the House it doesn't matter where they get seats. They can find races in bumfuck nowhere that $100k is a race winning donation.
They're going after established progressives to stop the movement. These aren't the races they're counting on, it's a message to everyone else.
Schiff got into the general because of name recognition. He was one of the most prominent voices in the House and has been there for over two decades. I doubt a lot of voters even considered his position on Israel.
I don't really think there was much of a question he was going to win any more than it was of Trump.
Nope, he brought it up alot...

How many people listen to speeches for people running for senate vs. just voting for the name they recognize most?
Politics is a popularity contest. That's why a reality TV star and fake successful businessman was president for four years and possibly may be again.
You keep saying things that are false to back up your opinion...
I show you those are false...
And you just say
And say more false shit to back it up
There's no logical consistency, you just say whatever in the moment that backs up your opinion.
If I wanted that shit I'd talk to Republicans.
Edit:
Oh ok...
This is one of those things where you make multiple accounts with the same name...
Fun trivia fact:
Another "flying squid" was the first account in my block list, looks like you quit using that one tho.
Can you do me a huge favor and reply with all your alts so I can block them all and finally be done with you?
This is the only account I have, so that is a lie, and I never said "Ok, but my opinion is still right," so that is another lie.
Also, you replied to my post. I never asked you to.
If you don't want to talk to me, don't reply to my posts. I'm not sure why lying accomplishes here.
