EcoMaoism: Animal Liberationist, Environmental Mao Zedong Thought

First, I want to say, well written.

Second, to this thought:

I have no idea why the liberals are wasting saliva defending the actions of this man or trying to garner him any sympathy.

I think it goes back to what Kwame Ture points out in The Pitfalls of Liberalism: https://redsails.org/the-pitfalls-of-liberalism/

Most societies in the West are not opposed to violence. The oppressor is only opposed to violence when the oppressed talks about using violence against the oppressor. Then the question of violence is raised as the incorrect means to attain one’s ends. Witness, for example, that Britain, France, and the United States have time and time again armed black people to fight their enemies for them. France armed Senegalese in World War II, Britain of course armed Africa and the West Indies, and the United States always armed the Africans living in the United States. But that is only to fight against their enemy, and the question of violence is never raised. The only time the United States or England or France will become concerned about the question of violence is when the people whom they armed to kill their enemies will pick up those arms against them.

Yes because it's going to embolden the now mainstream alt-right in their crusade against humanity.

I have no idea why the liberals are wasting saliva defending the actions of this man or trying to garner him any sympathy.

This is the sole usefulness of this event: it can be used to highlight for libs the sharp contradiction between calling Trump a fascist, a danger to democracy, an inciter of stochastic terrorism, etc., and the mealy-mouthed "well violence is always bad!" response from lib leadership.

Either he's an existential threat that will harm countless people if elected, or he's not.

If this guy shot up a school most of the US wouldn't give a fuck, but heaven forbid he fire at a politician and/or rich person.

why the hell should we care if this class enemy gets shot

The question is who shot him and why, this can influence the development of history. He is an important figure in the USA. That he got shot could accelerate things which probably wouldn't in such pace. It is hard to know how it now develops and it is always important for Marxist to care for such things. This assassination is a variable that sudden appeared and I have to watch if it is an important one or not.

I have no idea why the liberals are wasting saliva defending the actions of this man or trying to garner him any sympathy.

It is a pathetic whining on high niveau. I can only imagine how US-Media is acting now. European media is pathetic on a similar level.:

"An attack on the most important democracy in the West"

"The Holy See expresses its concern about yesterday's violence, which has harmed people and democracy and caused suffering and death"

"Violence harms Democracy"

Or my favourite:

Dark hour for American democracy

I’m obviously imitating the western media

More comments here should be worded this way instead of pretending the institutions like those of the west has any actual legitimacy instead of only having a monopoly of power.

I have no idea why the liberals are wasting saliva defending the actions of this man or trying to garner him any sympathy.

To me I just consider it the fascists internal politics which, basically, the only use in understanding it is to be able to divide and sow discord amongs their rank.

Although if you want an idea of why people defend any imperialist/comprador/fascist politician is simply because they wanted to be like that. They want the power to oppres others for their own gains or amusement and if they can't be that person they will join any who are. That's what fascists are after all, a bunch of twigs that assemble to not break as easily. a bunch of twigs does burn easily though, so I wonder how that could be applied in dealing with the fascists/bunch of twigs comparison.

personally, i don't care, i only care about the aftermath of this event. that is: trump bettering his numbers in the electoral race
