    … They’re not wrong, you are misunderstanding what they are saying.

    Conservative MAGAs hate liberals, they actively want them to die.

    Leftists also hate liberals, and either also actively want them to die, or don’t care if they die.

    Thus… if a bunch of liberals get drafted and die in a war… the conservatives will be thinking “good, force them to do our bidding”, and the leftists will be thinking “if these clowns aren’t going to revolt against their ‘sacred institutions’ at this point, they never will, fuck em.”

    They are agreeing with the comment they’re replying to, that the internal political management strat that Putin uses in Russia would also work in the US.

    Also, for anyone confused: A US liberal is a centrist.
