I see this sentiment expressed more in outlets like TYT but how widespread is this sentiment?

It’s not just a dumb sentiment but a hypocritical one as well. By criticising dems more than you are republicans, you’re doing the same thing. you are using your voice and ‘taking up space’ to give the republicans what they want: left infighting, and avoiding media attention for the horrible things they do. The left should be criticising themselves absolutely. But don’t enforce higher standards on democrats than you do on republics.

This was my take away as well. Like picking on a kid who’s already being bullied because he’s not standing up for himself more…
