First, what exactly do you mean by “going after”? Again, do I have to break their legs or what?

Lol I love how when I propose this people's reading comprehension just falls off a cliff. Like they're going ham on lecturing leftists and young people for their voting habits but super confused about what they could do with moderate voters.

But sure I'll play along and pretend "go after" wasn't clear in this context.

Here's an example: Every time you have the urge to tell a leftist what to do on lemmy immediately log out. Go log into facebook. (Sign up if you don't have an account). Find some Boomer who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries and tell them that was a stupid decision.

So instead of just you know, arguing with people on a platform I’m already on, I should sign up on a different site, search for posts from 4+ years ago and go harass random people that might’ve already regretted their decision. Definitely requires the same effort.

Why don’t you take your own advice and, instead of telling leftists what to do on Lemmy, you go on Facebook and do that yourself? You could also go directly for conservatives since they’re basically the root of the whole problem.

Annnnd there it is. You have a higher opinion of moderate voters who elect procorporate trash than leftists. Buddy, you can call yourself whatever you want but you're completely indistinguishable from just another moderate Democrat voter.

I'm only telling you what to do after you started telling me what to do bud. Alternatively you could stop telling people they're morally obligated to vote for a strike blocking, genocide supporting candidate.

Drop the facade. You love strike blocking, genocide supporting procorporate trash candidates.

Now you’re just making arguments out of thin air. I never said anything about my opinion of people who voted Biden in the primaries (because, again, I literally never spoke to one), and most importantly never told you to do anything prior to my last comment, which was in response to you telling me what to do first.

“Drop the facade”, you’re just trolling to get a reaction out of people.
