(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

This post could actually be the psy-op. Spread the idea that infighting is happening to then create it
"Left unity" IS the psy-op. The notion that leftism is some sort of singular concept that is harmonious with all forms of itself. What a great manipulation. There are good ways to do leftism and bad ways. Anyone who tells you different is intentionally trying to create divisiveness of the known differences in approaches to leftism to agitate leftists and gaslight them into thinking there is an ideal and that the ideal is only achievable if they all somehow agree. But as they never will as this doesn't make sense, these contradictions positioned as truths are the manipulation used to destabilize any movements. For any success of movement leftists will need to agree to disagree or one will have to over power the other.
Infighting amongst leftist has literally existed as long as leftist ideology itself has existed. You can't learn the history of the left without reading about dozens of examples.
And that's why fascism seems to win. Seems like they can compromise as long as the people the don't like suffer
It's less that they can compromise and more that the only policy that they care about is policy that hurts minorities. They'd happily jump on a grenade or march into an oven so long as they can take a liberal and an immigrant with them.
On the other hand, look at how much effort it's taken for the fascists to get power again. The groundwork for the current administration was started under Reagan and solidified under Bush Jr. They had to take every branch of the government by force to get to where they are because there just aren't enough of their supporters to actually get them into office without bending the rules until they break.
I've seen enough infighting already, if anything this joke is late to the punch.
also spread the idea that anyone that expresses a pragmatic approach to the moving the needle left incrementally should be shamed because they weren’t “pure” enough.
I see it quite a lot, personally. Democrats are blaming other Pro-palestine democrats for not voting for pro-Israel candidates.
US Dems are center-right, not leftists.
They're taking about leftists, not Democrats.
Ah sorry, I'm getting the terms confused.
