FUD works by sowing apathy to discourage a behavior. In this scenario, all that criticism is used by bad actors to convince people who would vote democrat to just stay home or believe that voting doesn’t matter because bother sides are the same.

Leftists fuel the anti-democratic propaganda machines with their ‘criticism’. Those ‘criticisms’ have consequences and in the end, prevent leftists legislation from being passed.

Did leftists stay home during the election and hand over the US to fascists because of spongebobcase?

Who gave up other than leftists on Election Day? Democrats are still trying to block legislation in the house and senate without a majority.

Filibusters don’t stop anything. Just delay it. Republicans are able to obstruct by tricking progressives into electing republicans like Fetterman and Sinema.

Democrats are obstructing legislation in the house as much as possible but they don’t have a majority so their success is dependent on republican infighting.

I wish leftists knew how to win elections so we could get politicians that vote on leftist policies. But leftists are unpopular among voters and consistently lose elections.

It seems like every time a progressive gets elected they end up being a republican like Fetterman and Sinema.

Yup, staying home on Election Day because of genocide leads to defeat.

They have been in the house of representative by using the republicans infighting against them. But again democrats don’t have enough elected officials to pass or block legislation because leftists continue to fail at winning over voters and getting elected.

Too many leftists stayed home during the election. Now democrats don’t have enough elected officials to do anything. But you probably knew that.

Democrats sure seem to want to work with Republicans, which leftist policies have they adopted?

Single payer healthcare, student loan debt relief, capital gains tax, increasing corporate tax rate, legal marijuana, all the UBI experiments have been done in democratic locations and that’s just off the top of my head. I’m sure there’s more.

The only thing stopping democrats from getting legislation passed is seats in Congress.

Leftist haven’t been able to get elected for barely any congressional seats so our leftist legislation is only as successful as leftist are at getting elected.

But leftist look for any reason to not vote (genocide or whatever the hot topic is that election cycle) and refuse to work with other ideologies. So they never get enough votes to actually get anything passed. The sad thing is they end up blaming democrats for their inability to get anything done so they never learn from their mistakes.

When has a democrat plugged their nose and voted more progressive than they'd like? Leftists do that every single time...

Never. Because democrats are willing to work with other ideologies so they have a bigger group of voters.

Leftists are not willing to work with other ideologies so they don’t get enough votes to win elections or get any legislation passed.

If leftists ever want to get their candidates elected or legislation passed they need to work with other ideologies and reach across the aisle. Because they don’t have enough voters to do anything alone as a result of their own inability to compromise.

Leftists can’t win elections because they refuse to work with other ideologies and they are too small of a voting group to get anything done alone.

Another progressive turns out to be republican. While leftists online get more vocal about removing closed primaries so there is no vetting process to prevent this.
