    "hardcore democrat"

    I don't even know where to begin. Like what do they believe in?

      "Moralists Democrats don't really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn't change -- not even incremental change. It is control."

        Democrats don’t really have beliefs.

        Yeah, I've got beliefs. I'm a Law And Order Democrat. I believe in living the American Dream through Free Markets, Personal Responsibility, and Liberal Democracy. My favorite holiday is Independence Day and my favorite President is Abraham Lincoln (who was a Republican, I might add).

        You claim that I don't have beliefs, but I'm here to say that I believe in Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Maybe you just wouldn't understand that because your ideology killed a 100 Zillion People. Once you grow up a little, get a Real Job, and learn to take care of yourself, I'm sure you'll come around. I have faith in my system because it is the best system in the world. Liberalism has turned America into a beacon of hope and love, and in time we will win the Hearts and Minds the world over.

        One of my favorite things from the election was a one of Beto's photoshoots where he had some sort of weird skater pose on a table at a coffee shop with "If you don't stand for anything, at least stand on something" over the top of it. I looked, but I'm pretty sure it was lost with the sub.

        edit: it might've been stand on something, even if you don't stand for anything

      "All Democrats are good and sexy except for the Squad who rock the boat too much. Republicans are stupid and should be scolded into being smart so they vote Democrat."

      That's the beginning, middle, and end of anyone's ideology if they're calling themselves a hardcore democrat. They have no actual material policy, just celeb worship and nascent nationalism expressed through hip-hopping founding fathers.

      Fuck these people so much. Every single of these "I'm a little bit country and you're a bit rock n roll" style posts from egghead liberals trying to break bread with reactionaries and fascist-adjacent types with their stupid disarming fucking language. Maybe that's why leftists come across as so hostile online: It only looks hostile when compared to this "aw shucks" hands-in-the-pockets bullshit. Hokey motherfuckers.

      Lmao OP left out the tidbit about this being a conversation in /r/conservative

      "Hello, yes. I am a Modern American Progressive. I have never actually met a Leftist in my life and personally I doubt that they even exist. Everyone in my family voted for Joe Biden, and yet they are extremely excited to hear the news that Fidel Castro is dead and Cuba will be incorporating as a Free State Under Capitalism within the next week. I just want to reach out to you conservatives and let you know that we can reach across the aisle on a lot of things. You're smart, you're beautiful, and we agree with you. Anyway, back to doing normal progressive things like waving a rainbow flag from my Raytheon office window and snitching on coworkers who are trying to form a union."

    lmao dumbass doesn't realize that it's the far-right agitators who carry the US flag. This happens in every country btw. Those who protest for freedom usually wave their own countries flags. Even more will carry the flag of their state/department/province/ etc.

    This is one of the few things I think everyone agrees is good and this article makes it look like that is not the case.

    I guarantee this liberal is far more upset by people disagreeing with the Correct Opinions than they are by whatever they imagine is happening to people in Cuba.
