Fuck off. I have 3 deployments under my belt and 0 war crimes. Some of us are just born poor as fuck and wanted to go to college. The military honestly isn’t some monolithic entity… 90% of the people on this thread literally have never talked to a service member and it shows lol
You seem to have concluded with no evidence that I’m a Democrat. That’s cute.
Nihilism, laziness, there are plenty of reasons.
“the nerve”… You don’t have to like it but trump is an accelerationist. It’s not even debatable how much quicker the damage is and will keep being done. I think it’s funny you have “the nerve” to even pretend otherwise.
Trump is not an agent of capital. Trump is an agent of his own ego. I’m old enough to remember when he was bankrupting the casinos in my home state. He is forcing the system to cannibalize itself in order to turn himself into some kind of king. It’s not really about the money to him. He is showing just how malleable the framework is even though it only benefits the mega rich who are currently guiding some of his less ego driven actions because they bought his presidency via social media and corporate news. Why would you have a problem with a person of the people in his position bending the framework back our way?
I just did a dab so I’m gonna log off here for now but I would enjoy continuing this discussion with you later.
Incorrect. I don’t know if you live in the US but its fairly clear to me that we can enact meaningful change from within. Look what trump is doing. Why couldn’t we have a leftist version? Be the change you want to see.
The dems lost because they refused to accept the reality (they ran a shit candidate with an uninspiring platform all the while not doing a primary). Stop trying to paint me as some fucking anticommunist. It all comes down to the fact that if you refuse to engage with this system you will never be able to enact meaningful change. If you want representation either put it there yourself or pick the candidate closest to your viewpoints while organizing. Both are possible.
I did not suggest that. I stated that if you refuse to accept the reality of the situation then no one will engage with you regardless of which title you choose to give yourself. That’s why the dems lost lol
I’m not here to debate which type of leftist I am with you. This is just a tangent that serves no purpose for our discussion.
Source: Trust me bro.
There are many like me. I also spent almost a decade in the military and you are not going to win a revolution without getting the backing of at least part of the government and last I checked there weren’t any Communists to back you up at the moment.
I am a leftist. As I’m sure you know there are many different creeds.
You can read through this post. I’ve commented many times. I don’t feel the need to have the same conversation with multiple people who all share the same lack of motivation to do anything besides sit on the sidelines and jerk each other off about how their preferred method of governance would fix everything while they can’t even be bothered to do the most base civic duty to push for the change they allegedly want. Its fucking exhausting.
And for the record I think capitalism is a fucking virus. I also think people who refuse to engage with the system to change it have no right to complain about it. The US is the most militarized police state in the world. You aren’t helping shit by telling people not to vote. Your actively damaging all the work others are doing.
I’m fully aware. That doesn’t change my statement. That’s not even relevant to the discussion.
Are you saying its ok for for them to simply gesture and posture rather than grapple with arguments? I really don’t see why you typed that.
No because that is only a half truth. You are willfully ignorant of the other half of the equation. One side is measurably more damaging to the US and the world overall. You don’t to “both sides” this.
I’m new here and just trying to fit in… I guess I was confused after seeing all the people with .ml after their names do the exact same shit.
It’ll be ruined much faster with the red party in control. I guess we are gonna speed run the decline thanks to people like you.
When the commies refuse to grasp reality that is what people will say.
Nice false equivalency
