MODERATORS
I don’t disagree, but liberals are blaming protest voters for Kamala’s loss to this day (despite the fact she lost by a far wider margin). The establishment can and will weaponize this form of pressure to further fragment the voting base.
I don't blame the protest voters for Harris's loss; they were a tiny factor maybe, but there was such a galaxy of problems way bigger than any impact they could make. I do feel like pointing out that their strategy is stupid and counterproductive, mostly in response to them running around on Lemmy and claiming real aggressively that it makes perfect sense and is definitely going to help.
