The Democrats share responsibility with the Republicans and Imperialists that have supported Israel's settler-colonial genocide for nearly a hundred years
I have been pro-Palestine since far before October 7th, 2023
Even if I wanted to get Trump elected, I couldn't. The Democrats lost because they ran an awful campaign and shifted even further right despite polling telling them that at that point swing voters would rather vote for Republicans.
You did, you were right up here with the rest of the spoiler voters, just hope you can cope with the genocide to come while you still blame ONE party for this. Stupid Ass!
I think the correct thing to do to give yourself agency moving forward is to project blame onto 10 million people staying home.
I think that this will let you further develop yourself and do the things required to meet your goals.
What do you have agency over right now? Are you part of any democratically run political organization right now?
Politics isn't gonna fix what is being undermined and dissassembled in our Democracy right now. Y'all keep coming up with pompous causes to distract people from REAL action. Fascists are my target from here going onward. I see or hear one and I react, with action. Enough discourse, we fight.
Just so you know you can't defeat fascism without defeating capitalism. I recommend reading "the economy and class structure of german fascism" and "fascism and social revolution".
In general individual action doesn't really help address social problems.
I dont think electoral politics will work but you have to expand your definition of politics if you think electoral politics is all that politics is.
Bullshit. The acquisition and accumulation of wealth is not a fascist construct. Yes rich people are fascists quite often but this stupid anti-capitalist rhetoric must stop. Whatya gonna do, abolish money?
There is the problem, you don't even know how to define capitalism. I would suggest reading "wage labor and capital" and "value price and profit"
Fuuuuuck your book. Always got something to sell.
Both Wage Labor and Capital and Wages, Price, and Profit are free, as well as excellent for beginners with no experience in economics (though it's easier to understand if you've at least taken a high-school or college level economics course).
Unlike Capitalists, Communists advocate for moving beyond the profit motive 😉
Concept to sell, Jesus you pedantic psuedo intellectuals suck
What are we selling? The work is free and in the public domain.
Yes, actually, eventually abolition of money is an important goal of Communism. You may wish to read Prices in a Planned Economy to learn more about what that looks like and how it's done.
Well you can't. The population as a whole won't let you.
I advocate for worker organization and revolution, I blame the Dems for spoiling the left as far-right wingers and I blame the Reps as far-right wingers. Even if every single third party voter in every swing state voted for Harris and convinced 2 or 3 others to do the same, Harris still would have lost handily.
You have no idea what you're talking about.
Here you come with that communist revolution shit. Will you acknowledge the genocide of Stalin? Your just another Russian bot in my book.
What in the world are you on about now? Can you come back down to the realm of reality, so we can uave an actual conversation? How would I be both a Russian Bot and an all-powerful third party voter that somehow decided this election?
Please acknowledge, otherwise you are a Russian bot.
Acknowledge what? Saying I need to "acknowledge the genocide of the Russian people by Stalin" in a thread going over the very real ongoing genocide in Palestine is deflection, for 1. Secondly, what specifically are you referring to as a genocide? Political purges? Famine? Historians don't recognize a genocide committed by Stalin against Russians, they acknowledge excess deaths, so I need to know specifically what you're talking about or else you're going to throw a fit again.
Step away from the keyboard. I'm an American Leftist, I'm a Marxist. I have never been to Russia, nor have I been paid by Russians. This is an absurd conspiracy theory.
Russian bot
You can't answer what you're talking about, you can't explain which of the things I've said is misinformation nor why that is, all you do is call others "Russian Bots" or "Commies" like a 1960s American McCarthyite.
You can't acknowledge the failures of communism in the REAL world. We've been through this before. I'm not the one out of touch with reality. Go and push for a communist revolution. I'm gonna laugh at you McCarthy style while the REAL WORLD smacks your stupid ass back down.
I absolutely can acknowledge the real existing struggles faced by AES states, and can offer contextualization or explanation of how we can avoid making the same mistakes. What's more evident than anything is that you don't actually know what those struggles really were, so you throw it all under the banner of "COMMUNISM BAD," which I can't engage with.
If you ask me about a specific event, time period, action, etc. we can have an actual dialogue. Failing all else, I recommend you read Blackshirts and Reds by Dr. Michael Parenti, he takes a critical eye towards the successes and failures of the Soviet Union in a way that analyzes what actually happened there.
Eventually the real world will let you know that Marxists are right, yet again.
Yeah go on and tell everyone to read your book. They just all wanna through it out the window for you after that.
4.41 stars on Goodreads is one of the highest scores.
You do nothing but type on a keyboard and mislead people. Acknowledge the genocide of the Russian people by Stalin.
How am I misleading anyone? What have I said that's false? You might need to step away from the keyboard for a bit.
Still haven't acknowledged Stalin's genocide either. Your evasiveness speaks for itself.
What genocide did Stalin commit against Russians? Are you referring to political purges as genocide? Famine? What specifically are you talking about? I'm not being evasive, you're inventing history and refuse to clarify what you're talking about.
Dance commie, dance.

They can look at your comments and hudge for themselves. The mistruths you used while interacting with me personally are all I need. Ive confronted you with your own words before and poof, your gone. So you can just fuck off now.
What mistruths? You can't point to anything, you just namecall and slander. Point out something specific.
