    I don’t think the rich are creating communist orgs that accurately explain the problems today just to divide liberals from the left, considering liberalism by nature already supports the system the capitalists profit off of. If anything, your suggestion is going off of vibes, hopes, and dreams.

      I didn’t say they were creating them. I am saying they’re targeting groups with more passion than brains

        The rich do manipulate liberals into thinking they can get meaningful change through electoralism, but I don’t see what that has to do with leftists.

          Wow incredible. It’s like speaking to a trump supporter. Weird how your opinion parallels theirs. It’s almost like it’s coming from the same place

            This is just lazy rhetoric equating me to people we both don’t like. Why is it that you claim my opinion is similar to theirs? They voted for their guy, and he’s in office, no? Seems they think electoralism does work.

              Because they were manipulated and coaxed into moving the needle right. It’s your turn now and the fact your opinion is the same as theirs prior to 2016 is just more examples of this. Lemmy is severely astro-turfed. The longer I’m on here the more evident it is. .ml is a place to workshop for these groups. Just like r/the_donald was

                My opinion isn’t the same as Trump supporters prior to 2016, this is another case where you just make an accusation without backing anything up. I don’t have any power over any “needle.” You have no evidence that Lemmy is astroturfed, you’re trying to rationalize why your opinions are unpopular here by inventing conspiracy theories.

                  Yes it is. The framework is the exact same. Elections are bogus. This is the base where they started. Democracy doesn’t work for you. Disenfranchise and alienate.
