Since this is at the top of active, take notes on how the alt-right radicalizes casuals. We could stand to learn a thing or two on how they reached casual right-wingers to help us with radicalizing liberals. :P

Some people respond to positive reinforcement while others respond to negative. It is necessary to approach from all angles and leftists should be aware that is what is occurring when people are doing this.
Fair enough. I guess my issue is that for someone like me, that sort of phrasing goes past simply not being motivational and verges on being discouraging. Just something to consider, strategically speaking.
Every contribution to further the left's causes in any capacity instead of rolling over and accepting our current circumstances is courageous as fuck. o7
Yep, I totally understand that. Definitely different messages required for different people.
That's part of why being a broad movement is so important. There's a huge amount of different people with different things that work for them, we must be broad with messaging and content that appeals to (and does not appeal to) different groups of people without actively fighting against the content that doesn't necessarily work for us but might work for others.
Awareness within the movement of this is an important aspect of being able to stay broad and continue to work without eating ourselves.
I agree with everything here, except for the implication that opining on whether a strategy is constructive is the same as "actively fighting against" it
