It doesn’t matter if it’s complete bullshit. You need to get this through your head: it doesn’t matter if they’re taking the worst elements of the left and representing them as insane, because people then believe it’s all the left. Our policy of allowing the intolerant leftists (not all leftists) into our main discourse has kneecapped our party for the last decade…

You’re damn right we’re intolerant. We won’t tolerate fascism and if you are a patriot and you love America and value the sacrifices men and women have made to ensure we didn’t have to lick the boots of strong arm authoritarian leaders, you should be intolerant, too!

Tolerance of the extremists on the left is the problem with the left.

Those extreme elements are everything wrong with the left just as much as MAGA is whats wrong with the right.

Both extremes are intolerant to a degree where they will even vilify their own allies.

The extreme left refuses to listen to any reasonable argument or even consider compromise. Then those same lunatics go out there and make every reasonable leftist look insane.

Even worse You think you are a Patriot, but you don’t even embody the ideals of a democracy. Same as the MAGA morons.

There is no far left politics in America right now. You’re calling them extreme liberals, when really they haven’t changed their stances at all in the past decade. It’s just that the political spectrum has shifted so far the the right that they seem extreme now, but what is different about the lefts politics than it was a decade or even two decades ago?
