Democrats are also right wing
I hate pretty much everyone. People are not inherently good no matter where they come from.
I hate the conservative black Democrats who all hate gay people and vote in droves for Joe Biden types in Dem primaries.
I hate the Hispanic "macho" swine and their "I immigrated the right way" BS.
I hate the Chinese ex-pats that go with Falun Gong nonsense because they were too greedy to stay in the greatest country on earth.
It sucks. I hate this place. I am a hermit by choice and if it wasn't for specific hobbies and orgs I just wouldn't be around people. Nature is so much better for my mental health.
If the average burgerlander can be "programmed" so thoroughly like this, what is stopping us from doing the same thing to create a mass of American commies? Resources?
IN THE ENNNND
And they're unvaxxed
The challenge we face is showing people the connection between their eroding material conditions and our politics. You're right that we aren't at the point where we can convince people en masse, but I have to believe we can get there.
I agree that there's a "type" that ends up here. We sure love a lot of metal and/or electronic music, computers, and other nerd-coded things. We are a pretty white group, all sorts of queer, and not really into "traditional" man interests like trucks or riding horses or sportsball. We'd rather see Amon Amarth than Taylor Swift.
And we think most people are dumber than us. Call it carry over from the lib mindset.
I think we have less traction than similar movements because a) the Capitalist propaganda is much better than in the past, b) the "treats" are basically mind Crack at this point (we all know people addicted to some online game or engrossed in their hobby of choice, and it's all designed like a slot machine these days aka Engineered to create addiction), c) We haven't gone out of our way to organize the public as well as we can, d) Socialism isn't a "new shiny thing".
I don't have the answers but where I am starting is collecting propaganda that is hopefully more effective than telling people to read dense 200-year-old books.
smh White-on-White violence
Is there a clip of that? I might need that to share around
Why do you believe people can't change? I believe life experience + propaganda + material conditions will move people left.
I used to be a lib that phone banked for Obama
None of these people believe anything.
