“You must be fun at parties.” Uh why would I want to party with Nazis?
“So edgy.” If I cared what liberals thought, I wouldn’t be a communist.
“You’re just a larper.” Larp it till you make it, am I right? Also, what have larpers ever done to you?
“Nazism and communism are the same.” Yes, Nazism is when you want to destroy Nazism forever rather than fund it the way you do.
These or rough equivalents…
“People don’t understand how politics works.” / “You don’t understand how politics works.”
“What do you want __________ to do?” The fill-in-the-blank is Biden or whoever.
“Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.”
“Do you want Trump to win?” / “This helps Trump.” / etc.
I hate this phrase so much. The funniest thing about it is that I’ve seen it attributed to different people over the years, depending on the libs affiliations/frame of reference. Some says its a Reagan quote, others say its Obama lol
Back in 2021 for a couple months I had some fun needling the libs who were lecturing me that I was “unrealistic” and I didn’t know how politics worked. I’d wait for the right time and then I’d say something like “Oh, I get it. You think we shouldn’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. That Joe Fucking Manchin phrase is going to get so much stuff done!”
Of course the joke ended up being that the actual enemies of the good - Manchin, Sinema, and other shit but silent dems - got everything they wanted.
For some reason it never applies to the libs themselves. It’s never:

I agree, but i don’t think most people believe it even when they say it. They just think its a smart sounding way to say a better world isn’t possible

Don’t let perfect be enemy of the good, but also if revolutionaries don’t create literal heaven on earth after overthrowing the bourgeois state that means communism is a failure.
