The community c/libertyhub@lemmy.blahaj.zone states in the sidebar it’s a
community for leftists and post leftists, but if you actually look at the posts
the mods are making, it’s almost nothing but trolling and telling people not to
vote in the general election. This rhetoric is especially dangerous to trans
people, who this instance is supposed to be a safe space for, and West Bank
Palestinians. If the USA elects a fascist president, there is guaranteed to be
multiple genocides of society’s most vulnerable groups, in addition to what the
US is already doing in Gaza. The mods on Liberty Hub openly troll their users
[https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/9444659] and ban people for advocating left
wing or harm reducing positions. The only action that is allowed on the sub is
advocating political inaction in the face of genocide, taking a centrist
position with regards to open fascism. This community has absolutely no place on
Blahaj Zone and should be removed by the admins.
@MindTraveller@lemmy.ca putting out some transphobic as fuck posts recently
The rabid radlibs (D) are all like "There is no such thing as a leftist/trans person who think Biden is just as bad as Trump, every leftist/trans person agree with me and the ones who don't agree with me are fake in some way.

This is the Blue Qanon conspiracy theory: all true leftists agree with them, leftists who disagree with them don't exist therefore leftists who disagree with them are a conspiracy created by the Kremlin/CCP/MAGA/whatever to subvert the "true" left.
This is how they cope when actual leftists confront them with their own contradictions and hypocrisy, in order to get rid of the cognitive dissonance they pretend that they are the farthest left and that peoples farther left don't exist, that way they don't have to actually debate with us and can dismiss us as trolls, LLMs or whatever else, and more importantly, that allow them to continue pretending that the contradictions and hypocrisy we point at is not there and to convince themselves that they don't need to reevaluate their politics.
They are so convinced of this conspiracy theory that they use it unironically to try to "convert" others. But

it doesn't work very well on peoples who aren't already convinced blue MAGA radlibs, and anyone outside the blue MAGA cult who are starting to be radicalized by the actions of genocide Joe are far more likely to be pushed away from the rad lib crowd by these bozo's rambling about how peoples who disagree with them aren't real than to be convinced by it

This is my theory about the liberal way of thinking when confronted to peoples to their left. What do you think? Maybe I'll make a dedicated post about this.
