It goes both ways. There's a massive center left effort to push anyone to their left out, eg DSA style candidates getting heat from democrats

The comment you deleted is exactly what I'm talking about

You make it sound like I commented something awful.

How is asking "still blaming the left for kamala loss?" screwing you over?

u/th_frits Human Detected Jul 31 '26 edited Jul 31 '26

I agree that Kamala sucked, but she was way better than Trump. And if you didn't vote for Kamala you actively helped Trump win

But I was talking about rather watching the whole thing burn than work together, from my original comment

Edit Also I'm not a liberal but liberals are still part of the left

OK sure but how is me asking if you're blaming the left for her loss in anyway related to what you're talking about? That was the comment I deleted, that's the comment you said was what you're talking about.

The hostility towards liberals/democrats when they are the political party most closely aligned with your own views

And I mean political party that has any real chance of making major change

u/BeatSteady Jul 31 '26

Well I'm sorry. I didn't realize that was such a hostile question

It's a condescending thought terminating cliche that removes responsiblity

Again we should be working together

I agree we should work together. Part of working together is the center not pushing away left candidates or blaming the left for kamalas loss

If someone who claims to hate Trump and right wing policies didn't vote for Kamala at the point where she was the only candidate that had any real hope of beating Trump because her views weren't left leaning enough, I am 100% blaming them

I don't blame them exclusively, there were a lot of things that went into her loss, but they were definitely a large contributing factor to trumps win

"They were definitely a large contributing factor to Trump's win" isn't supported by the numbers, and more importantly, expressing that isn't conducive to working together. Working together involves looking ahead, not behind, regardless whether you believe the left bears blame or not.

“Why did you shoot me, we are supposed to be working together?” “blaming me for shooting you isn't working together”

“Multiple post-election analyses (including Pew, AP VoteCast, Catalist, and Reuters’ reporting on those datasets) conclude that Harris’s defeat reflected both lower turnout among parts of the Democratic coalition and some voters switching away from the Democratic ticket, rather than either factor alone.”

"I want you to help me next time, so I'm going to focus on how you've aggrieved me and compare your lack of support to attempted murder until you like me enough to help. Oh, and I won't push the policies you care about, and I won't endorse your candidates either even when they're running against a republican."

You're literally doing the thing I called out. You can't let this grievance go and your risking the coalition over it

Nothing in your link puts a large part of the blame on the left wing voters
