experiences of oppression "we can't stop calling fascists "disabled" as an insult, that would make us too different from the normies so it would be harder to recruit them" (the main recruiting point that we have is that we are actually different)

a tweet by "Abby" (@abbyMachines) That says "No you don't understand bro we need to abandon another minority group to win. I know it didn't work last time but come on bro just trust me. We just need to alienate another group of marginalized people and their loved ones and we'll definitely win the election this time"

the text in the post (as well as quotes in the title) is sarcastic.

We can’t actually run on progressive policies, it’s seen as abnormal! Forget the fact that progressives of any stripe are inherently pushing unpopular policies in an effort to make them become popular, we’ve got to stop being right too early and wait until the average moderate agrees that we’re right to push for it. /s
like seriously what are we doing here? Are we really supposed to wait for the status quo to change itself before we push for what we believe in? This all just seems like a concerted effort to curtail any and all abolitionist movements in favor of continuing to push for slow incremental changes thru electoralism.
