That's nifty but I'm not seeing answers to my questions here.
Please answer my questions or GTFO

I mean, I know leftists and progressives refuse to acknowledge their part in allowing fascism to take over the country, but that doesn't change reality.

don't be petulant. no one owes you answers.

You owe me answers if you want me to listen to your stupid bullshit.
If not then conversation over. Bye bye.
You know why? Because I'm tired of people like you skirting responsibility for their role in alllowing fascists to take power. I don't have time for no more bullshit.

[–] VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

you allowed fascist to take power as well.

Yeah but unlike you, I engaged in the one activity that actually could've prevented him from taking power - voting. You couldn't even get past your own purity test to do that.
You know what happens when you don't participate but your opposition does? You lose by default. Good job you guys.

you have no idea if I voted, or what my vote was.

[–] Hawanja@lemmy.world 0 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

If you voted for Kamala, you would just say you voted for Kamala. Now even if you claim you did I won't believe you.
Do you know why it's worse when you don't step up, as opposed to say a right-winger or centrist? Because as a leftist, you're supposed to know better. Now we all get to suffer because you people took your ball and went home. Thanks for that. You don't get to blame the opposition for allowing the fascists to take power when you yourself didn't raise a goddamned finger to help them. Conversation over now, go away.
