    Love all the “the left doesn’t actually care about genocide” takes, they can’t process that there are people out there that are earnest in their desire to end the suffering of the repressed and don’t just take that position superficially for short term triangulation.

      It’s even more annoying because it’s a strawman built on a strawman built on a strawman.

      They incorrectly assume leftists are only interested in making democrats lose. They can’t imagine a scenario where anyone is to the left of Democrats, so we have to be Russian trolls. That’s two layers. If we are trying to make democrats lose, and we are Russian trolls, that makes us uncaring orcs who are using a genocide (that they took two years to even admit was happening) to dismantle their party.

      Occams razor says they aren’t popular and lose of their own volition. They can’t be wrong. It has to be a vast, unprovable conspiracy where the only good guys are democrats.
