You are literally saying “let fascism come, I’m ready”.
Not everyone is. Your personal fight means nothing against the most powerful state in the world. You need a popular movement to just have a chance. Otherwise it’s just part suicidal doomerism part larp.
Fascists do care about winning, that is why they pump so much money into being elected, as elections are one of the most frictionless paths to power. That’s why they change the rules to make themselves more likely to be elected. That’s why they try to disenfranchise people who would vote against them. A coup is a risky thing, which is why they take all paths to power which are available.
You fight the cancer with everything you have or you die.
The problem is, you don’t have much. There isn’t a robust labor movement in the US which could provide a front against fascism. Any small scale or individual struggle might help you personally and save lives, but it’s not gonna stop the bus. At most it’s gonna pull some of the people from it before it drives of the cliff.
If you want to fight the guys who’re about to hijack the bus, you need time. As much time as possible to amass the response. Voting for shit burgers is just what gives you that sliver of it. This is the thing you keep doing to be able to keep going, not the saving grace.
I heard that V was a representation of an open palm with 5 fingers. And X is two palms
I think you’re unintentionally reading/framing this in the condescending key. The way you rephrased it it does sound condescending, but in the screenshot it’s mostly just silly and caring. You might be too on guard here
There was actually a 19th century guy who noticed this and made up a hypothesis that the reason we see so many signs of long-term natural development of Earth’s features (canyons, mountains, etc.) is because God intentionally put fake evidence there, like he did with Adam and Eve’s belly buttons. I think he named his book Omphalos, which means navel in Ancient Greek.
Hi pal, I’ve stumbled into this really cool trans girl here https://hexbear.net/u/Catradora_Stalinism
She seems to be really into Stalinism. You have no relation to her in any way, do ya?
Otherwise that would mean you were lying to all the people here about who you are and what your beliefs are
Have a nice day!
To all taking this person seriously, she seems to be an alt of https://hexbear.net/u/Catradora_Stalinism, a hexbear/lemmygrad user
Loving to see tankies come out of the woodwork to seethe and troll at this
The non ideological crown doesn’t exist.
I’m not the first day in this, which is why I’ve put it in scare quotes. And I think exposing unwitting apathetic liberals to tankies is bad. Not platforming fascists is good, defederating from far-right and tankie instances empowers the left.
The modern leftist discourse is full of anti-Western sentiment. Which is good and deserved, but this also means there’s a larger susceptibility towards fascist propaganda, when this propaganda is directed against the hegemon. In addition to that, the thalassocratic nature of the American empire makes most leftist much less heuristically equipped to tackle issues of differently structured empires. These factors bolster development of tankie sentiment, ranging from genuine leftists supporting fascism to genuine fascists who love left-sounding rhetoric.
So if you’re coddling fascists in your community, don’t cry suppression when anti-fascists stop associating with you as well. You can just drop the community which engages in this and move elsewhere. If you’re still okay with that, then other people’s concerns about you were justified.
The same way as with tolerating open fascists, just letting them be around as long as they’re “nice” will give them ample opportunity to spread their propaganda in a more covert way. Some things will look innocuous enough and won’t be cleaned up, other will create drama on being moderated, so the mods might have harder time deciding. This won’t break their echo chamber, as such things existed even in the ever-open reddit. Just cut them off, it will be better both for the communists around, and for the “non-ideological” crowd.
Doing nothing or getting stuff on their own/abroad
Jokes on you, I’m not from America. I’m one of those people who will suffer from its fall to fascism, living on the imperial periphery.
