President Joe Biden is pardoning thousands of people who were convicted of use and simple possession of marijuana on federal lands and in the District of Columbia.
For sure. Actual leftists often criticize the Dems, because the Dems aren’t leftist. They are mostly just centrists and they are in bed with Corporate America. That being said, I don’t understand why some people have to criticize every little thing. I have been pretty critical of the Democratic party, myself, as a self identifying Socialist (begrudgingly still vote for them, because the other 1 option is way worse). These pardons are a good thing, though, and I don’t see what the problem is for some people.
Some extreme leftists just turn into such contrarians that they end up sounding the same as right wing fear mongerers. It’s like the political spectrum is a circle, with both of the left and right ends meeting up in a bubble of authoritarianism and hate.

Same ideals here
I think the problem is that there’s a very real sense that the party will make the first step the only step if we let them.
100%. Look at all the cities that rolled back progress on changes made to their police departments from the BLM movement as soon as they could.
It will be if the left criticizes biden for not doing more while at the same time praising hamas as a resistance force
It will be if we stop applying pressure while at the same time mindlessly supporting genocide for its own sake.
