    Apparently its 'victim-blaming' to suggest left has any responsibility for ppl voting right. We really have lost ability to make arguments.

        There's such an air of entitlement & authoritarianism. We've forgotten we need to win people to our side & appreciate them for taking it.

        We see this in social justice activism most explicitly where ppl feel entitled to other people's prioritisation of their issues.pic.twitter.com/BHGOjpZ4E8

        Doesn't matter how right you are that a group is disadvantaged. If you demand ppl help & then abuse them for not doing it right, u lose them

        And when I say 'we' have forgotten how to make arguments & be persuasive, I mean 'you', far-left. Rest of us are a bit cross about it.

        That's what we have to remember. The Left is not dead. Its just let the lunatics take over the asylum. Don't get smug, Right. You have too.

        also, can an idea / ideology be a victim?

        Apparently I was victim-blaming far-left loons when I said they made people go right. But it is their ideas which did it.

        that's pretty twisted. To even think of themselves as victims because people preferred other ideas over theirs.

        Such utter certainty that they are right and entitled to everyone else's support.

        "People didn't vote like I wanted them to do! It's not that I failed to convince them to support my idea, I'm a poor victim!"
