    Oh, I get it now; you’re fucking entitled. You’re entitled to the progressives’ support, even if they have to support a genocide they find morally reprehensible. You’re entitled to the time they spend standing in a poll line, even if their a poor, hourly worker that’s giving up a shift to be there. You’re entitled to their vote, even if your party doesn’t earn it. Well, maybe someday you’ll also feel entitled to competent party leadership that can turn out the fucking vote.

      “Wanting people who are supposedly on the Left to vote against fascism is entitlement”

      Yeah, that’s about the tune that’s been played for the past year or os.

        No, wanting one specific group to save you from fascism, even though you offer them nothing, is fucking entitled. You want the God damn left to show up and bail your asses out every god Damn election, but you never want to offer them a God damn thing. We don’t even have the numbers yet, so we have no fucking clue how many progressives showed up for Harris, but this sub is already filling up with folks whose first (and only) move is to punch left. The Democrats want to try to win by exclusively chasing centrists’ votes? Then go blame the fucking centrists when you lose. Or better yet, blame the party, since it’s literally their God damn job to win elections.

          No, wanting one specific group that you refuse to save you from fascism, even though you offer them nothing, is fucking entitled.

          That we refuse to save?

          I’m sure you have a great screed ready about how both sides are the same, but considering that one side just won, you shouldn’t be bothered in the least.

          You want to be pandered to, and think that’s what involvement in an election is about, not the exercise of political power by the citizenry. You had power. You did nothing with it. You stood by as fascism swept into stronger positions. And you fascist-enablers absolutely deserve a share of the blame.

          Have fun with yourselves, Zentrum.
