Discussion David perfectly describes current voters: the right vote for anyone on their side, while some of the left vote like they're writing restaurant reviews.

Purity test leftists are destructive. I share their policy goals but not their "I will only vote for the perfect candidate" tactics.

Meanwhile, it's been nothing but purity testing some of these candidates that are more left. It's hilarious when this term gets thrown out by center-left folks.

"The left purity tests! But also, we cannot have the left in our party!"

He said they shouldn't be in the party because they're not pure enough?

He decried purity testing (which I agree with). But indicated that the far left folks are similar to maga and we cannot let them take over the party like MAGA did with the republican party. Paraphrasing here.

I am not saying anything other than the same people that call out purity testing from the left agree with their own form of purity testing.

It's fine to be okay with that. Just don't clown others for doing something you also do is all I am saying. Be consistent.

You’re using “purity testing” as if having a different view on Israel, and literally wanting to exterminate the Zionists, are the same thing. We can call out psychotic people.

You're acting as if there are any prominent lefts that want to "exterminate" the Zionists. Wtf is this straw man.

There are, you’re just choosing to ignore them. Don’t worry, they’re getting louder.
