This is Left Praxis, LIBERALS would never understand the 4d chess involved in how Trump winning helps Palestine and American minorities.

We need to be able to criticize politicians. Not wanting criticism is the fascist thinking.
It's funny how that criticism always seems to be focused on the more left of the politicians running, and how it's always expressed in stark moral terms and often with a pledge to never vote for such-and-such, to encourage votes for candidates who have no hope of winning but can split the left vote, or loudly announcing that both sides are the same and that the left candidate is a fascist same as the actual right-wing fascist.
Sure, the right doesn't leave room for criticism the same way the left does. There is no problem with having morals, and using your morals to influence your vote. If you morally think that voting for the Democrats makes sense due to vote-splitting, keep advocating for that. Other people will advocate for what they feel morally strong for. You definitely added a bunch of other random, unrelated rants in here.
They're not unrelated, because they're all advocated for online by people who claim to be "leftist", and they all result in the right winning.
Feel free to disagree with them on their merits or not instead of just calling them unrelated. You sound like you're criticising @PugJesus for lumping a bunch of stuff together, but here you are dismissing them all purely because you claim they're all irrelevant.
'Criticise politicians' is not a fair representation of the DSA withdrawing their endorsement for AOC.
Who told you you can't criticize politicians and work within the existing system?
Sure, criticize politicians, and choose whether or not to vote for them. That's the system.
