    They’re around. They just rarely receive media coverage and what little they do get is infantilization or being called a socialist 😱 or a criminal🚨.

    Few get into office then it’s the same story.

    It’s worse now under this admin.

      Great, then their lack of action just makes them leftist cowards, which makes them about as useful as liberals.

        You either have solidarity or you’re part of the problem. It’s not a lack of action. You’re working from a garbage media filter.

        Maybe try Coolzone Media or Unicorn Riot or It’s Going Down to name a few decent ones.

          I don’t see any articles about Nazis being shot in the head.

          I DO see a bunch of articles about Nazis racking up a body count by shooting innocent people on US streets and murdering democratic lawmakers in their homes, though. Huh. Must be my garbage media filter.

              Your country is the one with the most urgent Nazi problem at the moment. I’m sure your inaction will make it our problem eventually, though, so I guess I’ll have to let you know.

                I’m confident there’s nazis in yours assuming you’re in the west. The US might be taking off the mask but the surge to the right has been a phenomenon ubiquitous in the western world.

                  Yes, we have an alt-right problem thanks to you allowing a house fire to start on our street after three decades of responding like assholes when we told you not to let your kids play with matches.

                  “Your child’s going to start a fire and it’s going to spread.”

                  “Shut up, you’re America’s hat.”

                  And now that everything we’ve been telling you was going to happen IS HAPPENING, your response is. “LOL, it’s hittng your house next.”

                    People have been working and dying to fight this on the left in the US since well before either of us were born. Attempting to blame the left instead of liberals or the fascists for the actions of the liberals and the right is antagonizing at best and maliciously doing the fascist’s job for them at worst.

                    I assume you’re coming from a place of wanting a better world, but expecting people to kill outright is disregarding their position and the safety in their communities. People have lives and friends and families. When they lose what’s left for them to protect then you’ll probably start getting what you want.
