Edit: I didn’t actually think I’d need to put this here but unfortunately I think those kinds of people are here

Bigots are not welcome on my post and they are certainly not welcome on my post to co-opt it to spread bigotry

I am progressive myself and support human rights and LGBTQ+ people

    Purity testing.

    If you don’t align with the party narrative 100%, down to the atom, then you’re basically maga.

    I don’t think people realize this is a major factor that drives people away from progressive politics.

    When a conservative meets someone more conservative, they bitch about liberals. When a leftist meets someone more left than them they compete with each other to see who’s most “pure.”

    This is a major problem.
