They posted graphics calling him a "biological female" before he caved. Rittenhouse backtracked his criticism not even 12 hours after the online hate from his fellow conservatives started.
To be fair, they’re not the hard left. Hang with enough actual socialists and communists and you’ll hear a lot of comments to the extent of a “well armed proletariat”. These tend to be United States neoliberal centrists, who believe they’re hard left because their Overton window has been yanked hard to the right.
That’s a fair assessment. I’ve always said, if the dems want to completely destroy the repubicans and make force a new party to come from the ashes of whatever is left. All they would have to do is drop their anti-2a rhetoric and they’d sweep pretty much everything.
You’re getting downvotes for it but you’re right. Once the Republican party collapses I expect the Dems to change their stance to pull voters from their challengers on the left.
