    You’re so out to lunch with every comment that it is worth laughing at. People love lolcows.

    First you said that I didn’t say to give an example within the last 10 years. You were wrong. It’s one of the first comments. In fact it’s said twice.

    Then You said you listed plenty of examples. You gave 2, you listed GDPR and socialized medicine. So wrong again.

    Then you said I didn’t address GDPR. I had to again show you where I said that. Not only wrong but you need your hand held throughout this. As a soldier, pay the fuck attention.

    You have a melt down every time lol. You’re getting schooled and failing back to the same lines because your ego keeps you ignorant of any reality. You’re the perfect example of a terminally online forum troll.

    Oh look, another day, another win by the right. Here is Hilton making a statement because one of their hotels refused service to ICE.

    So tell me again when something like this resulted in a win by the left. When has the left stood up and turned the tide on something like this in any meaningful way.

    The fact that you’re pissed at me for pointing this out is the fucking problem.



  • This is the every first time you’ve mention “ten things” at all. You know, the only reason you’re still here is because you’ve no idea how badly you’re humiliating yourself.

    No it isn’t. Prove it. Also, calm down. You’re the most bot sounding person I’ve ever come across.

    It is literally at the top

    What has the Left actually accomplished anywhere in the last ten years?

    What has the left done that you would say it’s effective politically or culturally on the last ten years

    What ten things did you list

    Prove me wrong. The left has been in decline for over a decade. It’s full of people like you who are ineffective, uninformed and have zero self awareness. You all think you’re right but really you’re just circling the drain. And I’m not saying this to be mean like you’re attempting. I genuinely mean that the left have not been able to counter anything the right has done and it shows when someone like you can’t even muster a decent response. Anything you don’t like is propaganda or Russia just like anything they don’t like is fraud or woke.

    You all can keep believing the right wing and MAGA are dumb. For sure within that group are some of the most brain dead followers you’ll find. But they at least have effective people steering them towards their goals. The left showed up in streets with millions and still couldn’t change or accomplish what the MAGA did with bullshit memes. The left need to wake the fuck up and or distance itself from the current base because that core group are the reason it’s failing.

    You’re out of line. You ignored entirely what I was asking for by using universal Healthcare as an example. This is exactly what my issue is. The left are resting on it’s own laurels while failing horribly. This generation of leftist are the most ineffective in it’s history. GDPR is a good example but it has no bearing here when you compare to things like

    • Trumps double victory reshaping conservative politics globally

    • Conservative capture of the Supreme Court of the United States.

    • Overturning Roe v. Wade

    • Long-term judicial appointments in the US locking in conservative influence for decades

    • Brexit

    • Normalization of nationalist politics in all countries.

    • Sustained rule by right-wing governments in Hungary under Viktor Orbán

    • Election of Giorgia Meloni in Italy and mainstreaming of post-fascist right politics

    • Modi

    • Influence of Jair Bolsonaro

    • Immigration framed globally as a security and cultural where the left has lost the cultural view in the general public as it being good or humanitarian.

    • Normalization of border enforcement and deportation rhetoric across Europe and North America

    • Everything with ICE. From it’s budget to expansion of its power. This will likely be replicated globally.

    • Globally reframing anything left as “wokeness”

    • Gender identity, trans issues, and school curriculum to the point that teachers are burnt out if they even dare put up a rainbow.

    • Successful positioning of parental rights as a core political issue

    • Push towards privatization of education while gutting public education.

    • Expansion and dominance of right-leaning alternative media, podcasts, and YouTube political commentary Post-2022 realignment of Twitter favoring right-leaning narratives and influencers.

    • Wealthy right wing or libertarian leaders buying up all media or suing media into submission.

    • Higher engagement and reach of right-wing messaging among young men

    • Expanding “country first” rhetoric and other nationalistic views

    • Skepticism of global institutions (UN, WHO, EU) becoming mainstream positions

    • Globalization blamed for everything

    • Gutting climate policy

    • Taxation reframed as punishment rather than public investment

    • Regulation framed as elitist overreach or flat or fraud

    • Cohesive right-wing coalitions prioritizing power over ideological purity

    • bombing fishing boats in Venezuela

    • Isreal

    So no GDPR is not it.

    Is your social Healthcare argument something that was implement by the left within the last decade. If it hasn’t then why is it relevant to this discussion?

    I have not ignored that part. I addressed it with my point about self awareness. Blaming Russian propaganda is an excuse to avoid having to be critical of yourself. It gives you a defense just like the right does when they blame Biden or Obama. It’s a diversion to not address the problems at hand.

    What has the Left actually accomplished anywhere in the last ten years? Not just the U.S. anywhere. Rejecting cookies isn’t an achievement. Globally, the Right has regained power and is effectively spreading its ideas.

    The Left, including its voters, are disengaged and uninformed. And the excuses are endless: morality, propaganda, oligarchy, anything but self-awareness. The reality is simple, the average Leftist is being outclassed by the average person on the Right.

    Results are what matter, and the results are bad. The Right dominates media and public narratives worldwide. The was a Left owned thing for the longest time. We were the internet ffs. Nowadays the left often doesn’t even understand what’s happening.

    This isn’t Russian propaganda. It’s the Left’s own behavior, retreating from conflict, abandoning platforms, and calling it virtue. That vacuum gets filled. The Left did this to itself, and while it fights a bullshit war with a glorified spellchecker, the Right keeps gaining power.
