Nope. I complain when it affects me and disadvantaged people. Regardless of the party in power.
Politicians are not your friends and should be held accountable.
The rich and privileged don’t need or deserve more stuff, so I don’t feel bad for them if they are negatively impacted (within reason)
Not in my experience. Liberals criticize their parties and communities constantly, at least in the circles I know. The criticism is most often about treatment if others in ways that don’t affect the person themself. Sometimes it even seems like status seeking and gets obnoxious. But I’ll take a movement where status can be had by advocating for others over over where it comes from selfishness.
Imagine believing that a party can have a policy that doesn’t affect you.
Like killing brown people in the Middle East?
Exactly. The whole world suffers from that. And I’ve seen a LOT of Democrats get absolutely destroyed by their bases for supporting it. Fetterman went from being a folk hero of work class Pennsylvanians to a genocide-mongerer. Cory Booker just pulled off a pretty amazing feat of giving a 25 hour filibuster and yet the news cycle very quickly shifted to how he voted with Republicans to continue bombing Palestine.
This meme doesn’t make sense to me because I’ve never seen Republicans send that accusation towards Democrats. If anything, Republican criticisms tend to go the other way: that Democrats should mind their own business and that there is a moral obligation to limit the scope of government (not that they actually care about that, but they say they do).
Democrats are enthousiastically blaming the genocide on people who did not vote for Kamala. https://lemmy.ca/post/41857939
Imagine believing that Democrats are homogenous
Very few Democrats were critical of their party before the election.
Maybe if you live under a rock?
