Oh yes. This will surely win over those far left voters.

Insulting people is how you get voters, right?

Don't forget grossly misrepresenting their points of view

Don't forget the most important part about getting far-left voters, completely ignore all of their concerns and appeal to fascists instead

I know Lemmy isn't the place to speak badly of anyone far to the left, but honestly?

If they aren't going to be persuaded to vote Harris by the other side of the ticket, I'm not optimistic they'll be persuaded by people on the Internet being sweet and polite to them.

So imo, who gives a shit about insulting them? It's pretty clear OP wasn't intending a post like this to win hearts and minds.

Depends on the instance. Lemmy.world loves to punch leftists.

Only the extreme ones.

You know, the ones praising authoritarian regimes that are committing genocide all on their own.

Why don't you guys complain about those? Is it because those don't allow for democratic elections?

I'd prefer to punch fascists, but you keep getting in the way.
