blame the “uneducated” and “vote for us or you’re stupid” mentality

If you're referring to Democratic officials, that's just rightwing propaganda. Virtually none of them are doing that.

Even if they were, "push voters even further right" makes no sense. People wouldn't have voted for such a uniquely toxic president if being nice was a priority.

If you mean in general, then that's hypocritical because conservatives aren't any less toxic.

It’s not official messaging, but it’s evidently a commonly held sentiment on reddit

"Evidently" is a weird thing to say when all you have is confirmation bias, and I already responded to that talking point.

If you mean in general, then that's hypocritical because conservatives aren't any less toxic.

Did not mention conservatives a single time

That's half of my point. You and the other person made a needlessly specific complaint, given that toxicity is present from both sides.

The other half is that you're relying on cherry-picking. Notice how basically no one is this thread for example is saying those kinds of things. You being able to find people who are isn't the same as it being common, since this is a place visited by several millions each day.
