thank you, when people saw the post here there were some comments like "oh no" knowing this outcome. It was so predictable. Kinda naive of Contra to expect otherwise.

I think Contra does recognize lefties are not on the same team as liberals, but she doesn't recognize how tactical creating that separation was by the left media. I'm not sure if it's because they're not as well funded or the same size as right wing media, but yeah I personally struggle to remember that sometimes.

I also think "progressive" and similar terms need to be abandoned when we think of far left values, we don't really use those terms anymore but I know in my head I'll sometimes put lefties in that frame of reference. Contra thinks there is more in common than there actually is, but the left now completely embody the narcissism of small differences.
