Look, maybe it’s the autism acting up again but I legitimately don’t see it. Can you help me see where it turned to lefties before your comment? The OP is about Elon, a right wing figure, with the narcissist’s prayer excusing his behavior. Very clearly a criticism of a specific right winger.
Then this comment:
“Trump won’t even be that bad, you LIBERALS are just fearmongering!” God. It’s going to be a long [insert period of time here]
I read that as a pseudoquote of a hypothetical right wing voter. Complete with the way they spew “LIBERAL.” “Trump won’t be that bad” isn’t a common lefty position I’ve seen, most of us voted against our own conscience specifically to keep Trump out.
Then the dino comic that, arguably, could be considered a depiction of your hypothetical lefties. But with the context of the comment it replied to I interpreted it more as a Leopards Ate My Face depiction of Republican voters voting against their own interests.
Then you entered with what appeared to me to be a hard turn towards blaming the far left for what’s happening on the right.
I think the difference in my interpretation is that many of the lefty people commenting about the utter failure of the Democratic party are particularly scornful of “liberals” to the point where they use the term “libs”. I’ve been told being a liberal makes me both transphobic and in support of Palestinian genocide. These same people said they were not voting because they would rather trump win than support Democrats. And they identify as leftist - some flavor of socialist, communist, anarchist, Other, or combination thereof, and they would rather trump win. Which he did, to their great and ignorant loss.
The things you were replying to were about Republican voters? You made it about Democratic voters.
It was about non-voters. More specifically “lefty” non-voters.
