The first-term Pennsylvanian has battled with progressives on Israel, immigration and energy, adopting a more caustic political persona and alienating some supporters.
Being critical of our representatives enables fascism? In what fucking world? Look, I’m an asshole when it comes to pointing out Fascists here on lemmy but what in the fuck are you on about? Don’t be like the GOP and treat the Dems like they’re saints. They have a lot of work to do, but it’s also wise to look at their fuck ups and call them out.
There’s no need to create division between me and the Democrats. There’s already plenty of it. I hate that I have to vote for them but we have a shitty system written by racist slaveholders so here we are.
They assume all critiques of the DNC is fascist, Russian, Republican talking points. Instead of holding their party accountable they punch out at everyone trying to do the job they should be doing.
Yeah, fascist trolls love to accuse others of being fascists and John Fetterman is a huge supporter of the Zionist regime who similarly resorts to acting like a total asshole, even to his own supposed colleagues. A stroke can change your personality, a check will change your entire political world view.
Hasn’t Fetterman been getting tons of criticism for being exactly that, being to the right of most leftists/liberals? Do you think that’s overblown and he’s still mostly on the side of the left?
I hope you can tell how clueless many of us feel having read your initial comments. You’re not doing a great job of communicating what you think and why. Granted, you don’t have to, and it’s a bit annoying how much patience is required, but if you don’t others will likely not care to ask you to explain. Anyway, just a thought as I’ve been realizing I need to get better at communicating - I’m probably overdoing it now ;)
But leftists and liberals are not the same. Liberals are already rightism-apologists (also see: “enlightened centrist”), and Fetterman has proven to be solidly to the right of even your garden variety liberals. Dude is Manchin sans the overt corruption.
Another day, another fascist account to block
Fuck fascists, but there is nothing fascist about this post, champ.
Creating additional division enables fascism, and you defending it muddies the waters

Oh, so to avoid authoritarianism, we should treat our elected party members as infallible. Excellent logic, no notes.

I just posted a link.
I think they were referring to morphballganon
Referring to “the left” could only come from someone right-of-them.
That’s not true at all though. Plenty of lefties talk about the left. Like all the time.
Is there a trolling angle I’m missing or something?

You keep using that word… but it’s abundantly clear that you have no idea what it means.
You should probably start here:

Don’t take it personally, haters gonna hate. Keep posting.
