allende is the no.1 example of "no, you really can't just be a social democrat and expect the fascists to let you reform the country without any pushback"
Allende was couped! Trump benefited FROM a coup! and liberals look at history and say "yes, there is no better world. We must simply bear it, those bastards have taken away all that we hold dear."
I would like to add that I think part of this is also that the modern liberal is finally having to deal with the reality of what America and capitalism are and having a sorta identity crisis over it
I think an issue they have is also their image of the left is entirely based on old Cold War propaganda, lowest common denominator left posters and the way leftists talk to eachother that doesn’t translate well to them all the time
oh is he still going behind the block? he responded a few times initially but never engaged with any kind of substantive rebuttal at first. he literally said "yes I think we can vote out fascism, next question"

trump gets 31% of the vote- "democracy. Americans chose this."

Bit of a stretch that I assume that's what these types want, but can you blame me? Blue MAGA is already plenty fascist as it is.
