This sentiment is pretty much why the progressive movement is fucked.

The right leans hard into meme warfare, using whatever propaganda opportunities they can.

Meanwhile the left has endless debates about the purity of their efforts.

We’re so fucked.

No, it's right. You can't form an alliance with somebody without their consent. If you want to be someone's ally, they're allowed to disagree.

And you post things with titles such as 'duck billed platypus'.
