The New Popular Front alliance looked like the best hope the left had against Macron and Le Pen. But after months of internal conflicts, it’s on the brink of collapse.

Democrats let fascism ramp up without doing anything, and now they aren’t doing anything to even slow it down. Are you denying that this is the American situation?
I’m saying this is what centrism does when the slightest hint of fascism starts pushing and shoving: they give in, pretend to compromise, they’re happy when the fascist says “fine, we’ll cut our expectations for 20 crimes against humanity down to 10, but it’ll be back next week” and they pretend that’s progress. Sometimes they put their foot down, but only when putting your foot down has zero effect, and they say “see, we tried”.
That is centrism, that is what Democrats did, and that is what’s happening here too with those “reasonable” parties. The “reasonable” argument is only on this side of the Atlantic, of course the Nazis in the US aren’t even pretending to have any reasonable discussion. But they did have a phase claiming that the Dems were rude and not doing anything bipartisan, which is why the Democrats tried so hard to project this image of reaching across the aisle for so long. See where that got them.
Absolutely I am.
You people are just as foolish and easily propagandized as the fascists. I miss the days when despite your foolishness, you would at least help fight against fascism instead of spending all your energy attacking Democrats.
You refuse to vote for the candidate running against fascism, and then when she loses, you bitch and moan that she didn’t do enough. You’re like children, with your nonsensical temper tantrums. When pressed to the point that you finally give details, you say “well Democrats should have done x, y, and z” and are astonished to find that Democrats have been doing x, y, and z since before you ever cared about politics. “That wasn’t on my TikTok feed!!!”
Harris didn’t fail. AOC didn’t fail. Gretchen Whitmer didn’t fail. Gavin Newsom didn’t fail.
YOU failed. All of you who withheld your votes and your support.
