I love how much they all hate each other in 4chan.

    They’re so fucking fragile. Their guy MASSIVELY outperformed what he was supposed to and they are broken. I thought WE were doomers. My god. The left STAYS losing and we’re still here.

        Nothing proves this thesis more correct than when the right tries to rally almost anywhere in the US that has a sizeable black bloc ready to also show up and counter protest them. Not only are the numbers almost always at least 2:1 versus the chuds, but they scatter very quickly when their space starts getting invaded and the cops are being mostly hands off in those scuffles.

        They don't have unity and solidarity, and why would they actually, they are loosely held together by very vague notions most of the time. It isn't stuff that has taken them years to study or understand, it's all basically just some reactionary garbage they read on Twitter or Facebook, that is like the full extent of their ideological consistently between them all.

        Even the proud boys will leave their own behind the second things get hairy when there being overrun. They are such posers

        I hope so! I'm sure the left has lost people to despair at various points, such as Corbyn losing or Bernie dropping out, but I like to think we're growing overall.

      Without Trump at the helm, I think the party is ripe to be re-colonized by the Lincoln Party parasites. They need him to lead the party, because the alternative is Ted fucking Cruz. They're right to be despondent. This may well be the end of their little revolution, now that they don't have their dude picking winners and losers in the White House.

        Yeah but I mean like... where's our revolution? We don't have a guy, or a party. That was the comparison I was going for.

          Yeah, this is basically like everyone who was a member of Labour because of Corbyn suddenly deciding to abandon socialism because he lost.

          Shows how flimsy their ideology is, just because we were beaten doesn't make me give up everything I believe in.

          We don’t have a guy, or a party.

          Leftists have guys and parties. The DSA, the PSL, the Greens, even the Progressive Dems.

          Trumpies succeeded at hijacking the GOP Prez and rode it all the way to the White House. Berniecrats failed to hijack the Dems Prez slot and now Biden is scrambling just to clear Pennsylvania's cut-off line. Meanwhile, Trumpies are desperately trying to embed themselves like little boll weevilwhiles into the meat of the Republican Party while Berniecrats are debating whether they need to cancel Nithya Raman for sporting (D) flair.

          where’s our revolution?

          Life in the US is still way too good for too many people to justify a revolution. And the places that might be approaching the levels of shit that would provoke an uprising tend to have the smallest population of the revolutionarily minded.

          Even Trump couldn't bring a revolution. All he could do was green light a little more police brutality than his predecessor allowed.
