For anyone “ACAB, but”-ing in this thread: the cops heard all this shit and sent the guy on his way. They gave this filth more dignity than they gave Breonna Taylor, Philando Castile, or George Floyd.

take that I’m about to catch a lot of flak for:

Not every single take from a person has to be bulletproof for them to be an asset to the revolution. He’s not a lost cause just because he said one dumb thing, he’s still moving thousands of people to the left every single day.

He’s not bad, we’re just above his level. Go read some theory if this is too imperfect for you.

okay but like we don’t actually believe this, right? Critical support means critical support - this reporting is blatantly false, this pans out to a death rate of 0.0015%, for the same disease that Cuba reports an 0.76% death rate for, which is over 500 times the fatality rate - North Korea is obviously either deliberately misreporting or has no idea what’s going on inside their country.

Critical support means acknowledging that they’re doing well despite ruthless embargo, sanction, and unaided reconstruction after a genocidal war. Uncritically claiming they’re best in the world by orders of magnitude ignores their hardships and material conditions and is 100% fantasy, 0% support.

I know some of y’all believe this so this is for the lurkers mainly, if the post was /s then please ignore me

Which political system do you suggest is more authoritarian than the owner of the largest military in the world, the largest police force in the world, and the largest intelligence (espionage) agency in the world?

It truly blows my mind when blueMAGAs come in here and act like we’re all personally writing checks to Putin and swearing our fealty. None of us like Putin. At the very most, we just support any struggle against the Great Satan unconditionally, but most of us are happy to completely rip on Putin when the context is appropriate.

The bill would “immediately cancel the filings of a political party, to include its registration and approved status as a political party, if the party’s platform has previously advocated for, or been in support of, slavery or involuntary servitude.”

lathe time: this gets the republican and libertarian parties deleted too for their support of prison labor. Florida has no political parties.

I’m all for some good dunking, but this is the response that most clearly, patiently, and convincingly explains what the deal with Hexbear actually is. OP, we are also humans who have built our opinions on real information, both historical and modern - probably more than 99% of liberals - and you’d benefit as a human and a citizen of the world to make a good faith effort to understand us.

fwiw, the Russian people of 1916 didn’t have an intensive understanding of Marxism either, they were just pissed off at the status quo and knew the tsar needed to go. You don’t need your whole population to be learnt, just eager for change and open to new leadership.

Not that we have the makings of a Vanguard party either, but it’s a lot less bleak of a prospect than getting 51% of Americans to read Capital.
