Which goes to my point. You fought wrong. What i see is that the left is very likely manipulated by right wing interest groups way more than people want to admit. I think for decades now, they have targeted leftist online for issues we traditionally dominated and redirected people into areas that were very ineffective. Meanwhile they socially engineered the right side and MAGA to actually effective social engagement. After decades the left is just a dead in the water idea with people who no longer know how to use the internet correctly for social engineering and engagement. The only time the left rallies is when the effort is the most high effort, high energy, low reward movement people could possibly imagine.

The left in the past were intelligent intellectual building and innovating things. That is no longer the case. We're resting on the laurels of the best and looking around at lemmy should make it very obvious how true this is.

The sad reality i think people need to understand its the MAGA isn't winning just because of money. They're wining because they're putting effort in areas that the left don't even realize are important. They are playing chess and the left aren't even playing because competition makes the left feel anxious.

I have multiple people in my life on the right who spend all their time online posting and networking and planning. They will shit post all day. Between the 3 of them, they probably create tons of content. Let alone sharing and promoting others content.

People on the left I know will read an article. Can't be bothered to share or even upvote. Maybe they'll write a comment like "This sucks, Trump is stupid" and then they go look for star trek memes all day. Give this behavior 20 years for the kids today to grow up. The global cultural image of the left right now is a weak, gutless screaming loser who nobody wants to admit to being outside of small circles. Kids today hate the left. It's going to get so much worse.
