One comment mentions it and I agree with it. The internet is conservative because leftists are actually touching grass, organising, building communities, alternatives... This is just something you can't see on the mainstream internet, but all of the alternative internet is leftist.

Would like to know too, maybe they just read the title and disagree?

Most of the downvotes came from off-instance accounts, so perhaps drive-by downvotes?

But it's possible some of the downvotes are from people only reading the post body description "why i left the left the left the left", which makes it seem like could be a right-wing video without watching it.

Ah yes, the body text could be misleading

Because there are conservatives on Lemmy.

This is Sports as a Weapon and InRangeTV. This is exactly what Tactical Girlfriend does. Anarchists and those who are close have been doing this FOR YEARS. Just stop ignoring us and listen to us.

Edit: I'm so sick of liberals erasing all of our work and then "coming up with a great strategy" that's exactly the one we've been trying to get them to follow for almost a decade.

Edit: also, this is almost entirely the wrong take. Fash dump insane amounts of money in to brainwashing and the burning of the 3rd precinct was more popular than either political party. One fucking Luigi and their whole machine exploded in their face. The take away is that they are really fragile and really bad at this shit. We should celebrate and keep pushing.

You know what would help a lot? If liberals stopped fucking over leftists all the time. Just listen to anarchists instead of erasing us!

Edit: ffs.

Seeing lefifts (according to 'Murican definitions) slowly reaching the conclusion that they need to stop being cunts gives me a little bit of hope for maybe a change in fifty years back away from unironical Nazism.

Should've happened twenty years ago, but better realize now than never.

What are you talking about exactly?

Liberals you mean? What conclusions have they reached?
