It’s pretty hard to vote left if you just think about their tactics as a whole. I’m sure people here and there in the party haven’t been bought, like Tulsi, but the broad strokes are really damning. Make accountability for voting harder. Import voters. Let non citizens vote. Give free stuff to anyone in exchange for votes. I believe in manmade climate change, and some policies here and there on the left are fine, but it’s pretty clear that they only support or refute any issue based on whether or not they can use it to grab power.

Most republicans aren’t much better, but at least they’re not trying to fucking replace Americans with low wage illegal workers to make a slave state. It’s ‘Disney villain’ bad and obvious.

I’ve tried talking to people online about it on some issues like Voter ID, and all the responses I get read like they were made by fake accounts working from the same play book based on them recycling commonly used ways of referring to things. Kind of like fake reviews on a movie site. You put them all in a spread sheet and find out 80% of them were all made from a few strings of key phrases. It’s like the online support for that party isn’t even real.

At least on places like the Donald, which are heavily biased in favor of Trump to the extent you can be, they let people debate things and call each other out. People have dissenting views. Not everyone agrees. Everything’s pretty organic. Go some place like r/pol, and it all reads like a bunch of hired people talking to each other.
