The post is criticizing liberals who derail conversations criticizing Biden by whatabouting about Trump. It is not telling you how to vote.

There’s no valid defense for chronic whatabouting about Trump, and doing so runs against this community’s guidelines (rule 5)

Anyone is welcome, not just leftists, but these are the guidelines:

No oppressing other users (bigotry is oppression). This includes not using the r-slur (or any variation thereof).

No defending oppressive systems such as capitalism or the US “democracy.”

No uncivil or rude comments to other users (politicians and capitalists are fair game).

No ax murderers, serial killers, neoliberals, torturers, cops, cryptobros, debatebros, or similar.

Discussion, not debate. It’s okay to ask someone to elaborate on an idea, but most communities shout down leftists and post-leftists, and that’s not supposed to happen here. This includes especially “whatabout Trump” on posts criticizing Biden.

No genocide denial or support for genocidal entities such as IDF, ICE, the US prison system, or likewise.

Transphobes eat my ass.

These guidelines are meant to allow open discussion and prevent the constant trolling of leftists and post-leftists that happens in places like reddit and Facebook. Follow the spirit of these guidelines.

If you are here to learn, then welcome! Remember this is not a debate hub. This is a place to share and learn.

Other than that, feel free to share memes, text posts, articles, or other things you find edifying and helpful.

The main reason I started this is because I know it’s hard to have a discussion in non-leftist spaces without constantly having to stop and explain fundamental ideas, so I hope this will give a space and a voice to anyone who’s felt frustrated like me.
