      The point I was making:

      No.

      You are saying that you depend on the left in order to win. In politics, that’s called leverage. The onus is on your party to run a candidate we find acceptable and behave in such a way that we reasonably believe they may uphold their campaign promises. Failing that, we do not care if your genocidal, oligarch-and-Zionazi-owned party wins or loses. You may view them as the lesser evil; that doesn’t matter to people like me who view them as equally evil. You can argue on Lemmy and Threads and Bluesky all day, it won’t change the minds of people who have seen what the Democrats are and what they support. You can win an election by meeting our demands, or you can keep losing. We owe you nothing and have no interest in your success otherwise.
