I see a couple (Hopefully now former?!) libs saying they've been radicalized over this whole thing. Honestly now is a good time to try spread the good word of Karl Marx to the unenlightened.

lenin what is to be done seems more apt given the timetable. not a lot of time for linen and coats

We should also take the opportunity to point out to the scared and radicalizing liberals that they are now fully in the same boat as us: "You heard the fascist, whatever your feelings are about anarchists and communists, the nazis don't know the difference. It's all The Demonic Left to them so congrats, you've been drafted to the good guys."

Liberal, to me, is anyone who supports any part of pro-capitalist ideology and goals, whether it be

  1. settler-colonialism/right-libertarianism (America's process to becoming such country)

Also known originally, as propetarianism/classical-liberalism, a le John Locke and Adam Smith...

  1. neoliberalism/IMF structural adjustment of exploitative debt and cuts of social spending, privatization (post-cold war economic policy of capitalism, a l'Amerique, to expand capitalism,)

  2. pro-west regime-change NGOs, gulf-state-esque collaborators, and comprador nation-states (post-cold war foreign policy, to defend capitalist interests)

Liberals change and flow, by their material conditions and situation... in fact, libs only occurred as a result of bourgeois (bourgeois now is a historical term to me) classes trying to justify themselves as a whole, as the new dominating system

Eg. One liberal in rev. France may support beheading monarchies, while a whig lib or Kerenskyist lib in the U.K or Russia may support the Royalty itself

That's how it is for me... that being said, you're probably gonna criticize me, are ye?

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 42 points 4 months ago (4 children)

No, I was honestly curious. People throw "lib" around so much I'm surprised it actually has a meaning. Thanks.

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 50 points 4 months ago (1 children)

In leftist spaces, Lib has the above meaning. In conservative spaces, it's a slur for anyone to the left of Mussolini, including Communists, Socialists, and Anarchists.

[–] MemesAreTheory@hexbear.net 31 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Communists like Biden, socialists like Bernie, and Anarchists like Gavin Newsome of course

[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

Don't forget Antifa Thugs like Howard Schultz

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 40 points 4 months ago

Oh thank God, you don't speak in bad faith...

[–] aaro@hexbear.net 23 points 4 months ago

forgive us for being a bit bristly at times, we're used to this interaction going one and only one way typically. welcome! enjoy your time here meow-hug

[–] TC_209@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Thank you for asking questions in good faith; it's woefully uncommon and very appreciated.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 15 points 4 months ago

Not everything needs to be an argument online. Probably better if people realize 98% of discussion online is not zero sum.
Enjoy the rest of your week!

[–] TawnyFroggy@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

Well they literally called themselves libs so I guess I just trusted them.

[–] ComRed2@hexbear.net 65 points 4 months ago (3 children)

if the left allows it to be

No. No I don't think I will.

[–] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 49 points 4 months ago

I accept adventurism is bad, but isn't armed resistance good?

[–] BobDole@hexbear.net 26 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Organized, armed resistance is good

At this point this shit’s totally cooked anyways. What difference would it make? Literally everyone reading this is boned.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago

I have yet to be boned.

If any boning is to be planned, please include dinner first.

[–] sewer_rat_420@hexbear.net 27 points 4 months ago

The 'left' will go out and protest when Trump wins, or whatever else happens between now and November, and the state will be forced to massacre them. Damn leftists

Liberals simultaneously believe the American political system is pure and without fault, but also in the white house there's a big button labeled "turn into a fascist theocracy" and it works but no one is allowed to push it. And if you talk about dismantling the button then you're a tankie

[–] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 46 points 4 months ago

And if you talk about dismantling the button then you're a tankie

The parliamentarian said you can't dismantle the fascism button

You know this person is 100% ghoul because they don't consider all the women who will die of forced birth complications when doing their blood calculations.

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago

I bet he counts every woman on their period because they are not pregnant as as 2 bloods each tho

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

To conservatives, women and children are property, not people.

These people always cry about how Central American immigrants will turn the US into a Central American country like Guatemala. But they would love the country to be like Guatemala. Anti-lgbt society, strong Protestant presence, women’s rights being heavily eroded, and the far-right being so powerful that they get away with everything.

"The essence of liberalism is negotiation, a cautious half measure, in the hope that the definitive dispute, the decisive bloody battle, can be transformed into a parliamentary debate and permit the decision to be suspended forever in an everlasting discussion." - Carl Schmitt, Nazi jurist

I want things to turn quite bloody, actually. Mostly theirs

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 17 points 4 months ago

Ah right, a right to violence for me, but not for thee. Classic.
