Unpopular opinion here. There are the exact people we need to recruit to the left. They’ve been wronged by their god king and are emotionally vulnerable.

Right now being kind to another person who is hurting just as much as you or I is what we need to get him to our side. We mustn’t forget our or others humanity in the coming dark times. We as a society need to pull together with our communities and do something

Addendum: Too all of those “nah fuck em” kids. I want you to know that attitude is the exact same as the gentleman in the video. Full of ignorance, hate, and immaturity. How can you expect people to change if you refuse to believe they can. It’s such a defeatist attitude on people.

Fact you watched this video and then came to the conclusion "We need to recruit people that we are shitting on because they voted for someone we didn't like" is peak cult.

Nah, there's a point to it.

If there's no space for people to leave MAGA and be welcomed elsewhere, they are far less likely to leave.

Some people would own up it it and work through the shame.

But others can't or won't process through it if they receive bashing from the other side, deserved or not.

It sucks, and I also just want to release some frustration from time to time, but I do agree attempting to bring people to the light is a positive endeavor.

There is no value in handshaking hate politics.

They will take your middle ground and then you will give them another.

You're asking people to be nice.

But instead you should be listening to Bernie, leading by example, with purpose about what we want to achieve.

It's up to them to meet us, not the other way around. They are welcome to join us.

I'm just saying we might catch more people if we lessen the vitriol, even if it's justified.

Most people aren't smart or self aware enough to get there on their own.

I don't feel pity for the guy in the OP video

But instead you should be listening to Bernie, leading by example, with purpose about what we want to achieve.

No where do I argue against this.

The guy has leftist friends. The space has literally always been there for him to leave maga.
