I am going to be honest that if you are a person who does not have a preference between Gavin Newsom and JD Vance then you are using the term “leftist” incorrectly.
It doesn’t mean “hates Democrats more than the guy inventing new blood libels for Hatians.” The word for that is “Republican”

The key here is that the folks arguing for violence aren't doing so because they think it's more effective in principle, they're arguing for violence because they want to LARP as Lenin or Che.
if you want to be the violent wing your job is to choose high value, universally loathed targets, and to know that your job is to die or languish in prison for a cause that will spit on your name
what do you make of the theory i’ve seen in various places that nonviolence really only works when it has a violent wing to back it up? “how to blow up a pipeline” argues that many successful nonviolent movements had such an arrangement

It's not enough to just say "but Obama didn't do that." Sure, it's true, but that's not how memory works. You need to tell a true story about what really happened, populate the discourse with evidence and examples that give life to a memory of the Obama era that people can picture and engage with.

If the current state of hyper-aggressive, violent, and even murderous ICE/CPB/DHS activity on US streets comes to be accepted as "normal American stuff, just like what Obama did and no one complained," then that's some major grease on our slide into ever greater authoritarianism.

Without dismissing the seriousness of perennial voter suppression efforts from the GOP, some ppl on this site act like this is the first election theyve ever tried to do stuff like that and also like there isnt an entire infrastructure in place to spot it & push back against it
I live in a swing district in Texas that Republicans greedily want to get back, and I have to say there are people in safe blue states who need to get a grip on the voter suppression issue

An early indicator that we were entering into a deeply flawed/dangerous era of politics as aesthetics rather than substance was a bunch of liberals/leftists getting suckered by Gabbard back in 2014/2015 into thinking she as anti war instead of Pro-Assad bc she made mouth sounds in the right shape

vote shaming as a concept never stood up under its own weight. consumer-brained term
so, you see the bernie or bust people were actually right because libs failed to persuade them
now, when we tried *that was also considered illegitimate* any argument they didn't like was considered 'vote shaming'

The systems "Dems thought would save us" is voters, and we acknowledge that we underestimated how goddamned stupid, vapid, and plain fucking evil a lot of voters in fact are.
“months of wrangling”
One of many things Trump has revealed about the systems Dems thought would save us is they’re maddeningly slow & bureaucratic
The bad guys are back at their hideout with the loot before the sheriff can even get his pants on

WSJ Exclusive: A U.S. intelligence official has alleged wrongdoing by Tulsi Gabbard in a whistleblower complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the matter.

Schumer has graduated to world-historical levels of political malpractice. Van Papen, Quisling, Stephen A. Douglas-level incompetence that in retrospect becomes indistinguishable from evil.
