Will democrats learn, when someone agrees with them on 99% of issues, being intolerant towards the 1% disagreement is a losing strategy?

[Anonymous]

This is one of the reasons I left the democratic party and it also costed Harris votes. Democrats have gotten to the point, when someone agrees with them on 99% of issues, instead of trying to work with them on the issues they agree on, they become hyper focused on the 1% of issues they disagree on and become intolerant and hostile.

Thanks Syntosi for affirming my point that tolerant and Democrats have become intolerant and hateful.

They'll never learn. Their toxicity and intolerance pushes voters away from voting for their candidate, causing them to lose, than instead of thinking they should have been less toxic, they accuse everyone who didn't vote for their candidate of being racist and sexist pushing voters away even further.

[Asker]

Yep, their toxicity contributes to their candidate losing then they blame sexism and racism instead of taking blame.

[Opinion Owner]

So True! I can't count the number of times I've been attacked by people on the left for disagreeing with them, even when it;s just one minor issue.

[Asker]

This is one of the many reasons Harris lost, but Democrats will deny it and double down on the narrative that Harris lost because everyone is sexist and racist.

[Avicenna]

Democrats are mostly totalitarian control freaks. They never learn that people don't like that.

[Asker]

They preach that they are the party of intolerance and acceptance, but soon as you disagree with them, even if it's just one issue, they become extremely hostile and intolerant and act as if your the devil. Yep people don't like that, and it caused them not to vote for Harris.

[Avicenna]

100% correct. That is exactly what they do to members of their own party and to everyone else as well.

[Asker]

The real kicker, is they either refuse to believe it exist or the act like Syntosi and double down on their hostility and act likes it's warranted.

[Avicenna]

Quite true. They are also so used to echo chambers and censorship that they cannot reason.

[Anonymous]

They are all talk no action. They won't learn because deep down they do not care enough to.

[mfused411]

They will never learn. And your update was spot on.

[Asker]

People like @Syntosi contributed to me leaving the Democratic party and choosing not to vote in this past presidential. Hostility from him and others also contributed to Harris losing, and instead of regretting being hostile towards potential voters, they doubled down on the sexism and racism whic is off putting to voters and contributed to Harris losing.

[mfused411]

He's an idiot. What Mexicans are going to these "concentration camps" ?
He made that up hoping that stupid people would believe him. 😂

[Asker]

Seems like an idiot who was silent when Obama was operating those so called "camps".

[jshm2]

LOL, not how politics works, kiddo.

I can't remember who said it, but if you 100% agree with someone politically, then you're in a cult. As an individual you can never 100% be on board with anyone.

[exitseven]

Eventually they will learn but i think it will take one or two more election cycles before they figure it out.

[Syntosi]

I am going to be honest with you. If that 1% is raping children, taking away reproductive rights from women, putting Mexicans into concentration camps or whatever then that 1% is more important than the other 99% and you can go fuck yourself if you disagree.

Is it a losing strategy? Too bad. Those people still needs to be told to go fuck themselves. Its my civic duty to punch nazis and spit in the face of the scum of the earth.

[Asker]

Thanks for affirming my point. This kind hostility is what turned myself and other voters away from voting for Harris.

[Syntosi]

Good. You should feel hated. If this turns you away then you should stay away. Contrary to popular belief, tolerance is overrated and its better to be morally right than to win elections.

[Asker]

Keep up the hate, I'll be laughing in 2028 when the Democratic loses due to hatred and intolerance towards moderate Democrats like myself.

[Syntosi]

I sure will. That said, I find it hilarious that you consider the Republicans to even be an option considering their positions are ontologically evil. Being able to morally side with them for any reason is completely justifying my hatred for you.

[Asker]

Who said anything about siding with Republicans or considering? Right you did, forgetting that many disenfranchised voters don't side with either side and choose just to stay home or vote 3rd party.

[Syntosi]

I dont know how to break this to you but USA is a two party system. 3rd party votes are meaningless and if you dont support a party then you give implicit support to both. You dont get to weasel yourself out of responsibility just because you are behaving like a spoiled child.

[FunkyMonkee]

They're too dumb to learn anything.

[seeyounexttuesday]

They are retards.
