It kinda already is. I have yet to see someone being a center-right here, let alone a Trumper. They either were bullied out or just lost interest. At most is just some calling out DNC at times.

And it is kinda of a problem in the internet that I barely see any place where both political views actually argue against each other, since all of those spaces now is just a political side circlejerking each other without actually debating.

It is mostly specifically left-wing thing because it is pretty beyond DNC. The red wave is actually a pretty global phenomena, since even the right-wing parties of Europe are gathering strength, and most of the western Europe is pretty damn leftist compared to USA and some countries of South America.

Part of that is that Reddit even started shunning rightwingers there too, and started believing on their own hype thinking that they're the majority. The site pretty much imploded on Trump victory, and by popular vote as well to rub salt on the wound.

Creating multiple posts about "Republicans bad" on a board that is already massively left-wing is just preaching to choir and useless circlejerk at best or hatebaiting at worst.

For reasons I already explained I hard disagree.

You say this board leans left. Where the board leans is not my point at all.

Spending 4 years yet again in a circle jerk as you say, mostly attacking Democrats, not Republican.... but Democrats.... is most definitely part of the problem.

It's not just CE. All outlets are doing this. All outlets from both sides have campaigned on attacking Democrats. Including those who are supposedly on our side in their misguided effort to be morally pure and or fair as possible.

Republicans actually don't do this on a wide scale. Right wing influencers didn't spend 4 years attacking Trump/MAGA. Same to mainstream media, political influencers, and etc. You didn't find MAGA spending 4 years picking at Trumps flaws.

Ofc there are many reasons why Democrats loss, so this isn't to say this is the only reason. But one those reasons we loss is our side spends a self sabotaging amount of time attacking our own party convincing just enough of independent, swing, and even a portion of our own side that there's no point to vote because Dems have a flaw(s).

So when you say there's no point to talk about "Republicans are far worse", and instead focus more on "Dems bad", I hard disagree. Given that rhetoric and messaging matches the rhetoric on a national stage that definitely contributed to getting Trump elected. Twice. Spending 4 years yet again mostly attacking Dems yet again as if Republicans and Democrats are equally bad is the optics uncommitted, 3rd party, and swing voters getting based on the logic they have repeatedly produced. This isn't a CE Only problem either.
