If the Twitter/X thing teaches you one thing, let it be this: Twitter was a neoliberal place. Then Elon Musk made it into X, a fascist place. Once again, neoliberalism laid the foundations of fascism. But that’s not the (whole) lesson… Neoliberal folks are still using X, calling it Twitter to make themselves feel better, and pining for the good old days. And there’s the real lesson: When neoliberalism turns into fascism, neoliberals will adapt to life under fascism. Right, class dismissed.

    Yes. Real leftists have no loved ones.

    The only love we need is our love for Marx, may peace be upon him.

      Fuck that guy, we’re doing anarchy. There are dozens of us.

      After the infighting we can fight the fascists, this plan is flawless.

        That’s how it works in anime right? We do a tournament and the survivor will be the strongest leftist. They’ll be able to defeat all fascists by themselves. Truly a masterful plan.

          That’d actually make a pretty sick anime imo

          Like the antifa version of Hetalia: Axis Powers

          Sure, you could argue that it innately defeats the entire point, but just toss in a team up at the end and it’s all cool
