  • This method hasn’t failed. Not even close. The bottom-up community method worked so well, the US government has assassinated, mass arrested, and even firebombed socialist orgs for being so successful.

    If we cannot build a movement that is focused on bottom-up organization, we will only build another corrupt system serving demagogues.

  • We can rally behind him as a comrade, but not as a leader. We need independent, cooperative cells. Not leaders who can be taken down.

    The right elevates demagogues because they’re fascists, and obsessed with the myth of individualism. I will not be a party to fascism or demagoguery, even if it’s a leftist flavor.

    You need to expand your ways of thinking beyond what you’ve been propagandized to believe is necessary or possible.

  • His racism was not simply driven by donations. Biden has been a loud & avowed racist throughout his entire life. He was against school desegregation, proclaiming he didn’t want his kids growing up in a ”racial jungle.” He was close friends with Strom Thurmond, the super racist fuck who Biden delivered a eulogy for. He was a close associate of white supremacists throughout the country and in politics. He openly did not value Arab lives, and called for their deaths with ease, and targeted them in writing the Patriot Act. He openly targeted black Americans with his crime bill, and led the push for a different set of mandatory minimums against black people.

    People forget, but the entire reason Biden was brought in as Obama’s vp was to appease the racists in the party. There was significant resistance to a black candidate, and a lot of Hillary supporters declaring they would never vote for a black man to be president. The whole birther movement was intentionally started by the Clinton camp. But Biden was the most famously racist in the party, so they hoped he would bring these people back into the fold.

    To see Biden launch his post-Obama presidential campaign, touting himself as anti-racist because he was Obama’s vp, made me feel so fucking sick inside. I never believed he was doing a damn thing to prevent the genocide. Biden called for this genocide throughout his political life, and this exactly what he’s always wanted.

  • They know they can’t take it with them. That’s not the point. They derive joy from denying others.

    Some people can’t enjoy what they have, unless they know someone else has less. And unfortunately, this world elevates those sociopaths to the top.

  • There’s a fuck ton of people falling for it. Luckily, 50501 is outing themselves super early. Already reports flooding in about the leadership attacking leftists in their own ranks, including overtly targeting trans activists.

  • I have a strong suspicion that they’re capturing screenshots & data, whether you have recall enabled or not, and that’s why the performance on Windows 11 is so drastically worse. Turning on Recall probably just turns on users visibility, or some additional digestion of the data.

  • Bingo! This article is disinformation. It’s a group coming out of the Dems, trying to redirect activists into supporting NATO/Israel.

    50501 heads have been calling the police on activists, doxing people for questioning their party connections, and harassing trans people at the events. They’ve been around, what? A couple months? Already a flood of controversies coming. Which is expected, considering the source. But this is why they had Pelosi as a speaker at an event, along with other fascists. For some reason, the Colorado branch is purported to be particularly toxic.

    How can you oppose tariffs, while supporting a hardline against China on Taiwan?

    To be clear, the current tariff execution is reckless and poorly planned. But I hear a lot of total tariff opposition from the same people who demand we continue to escalate with China over control of Taiwan, up to a potential hot war.

    So what’s the plan? Western economies were brought to their knees during just a momentary interruption in shipping during the pandemic. How do you wage a war with a country that does all of your manufacturing? China could defeat most western countries without firing a single shot, just by cutting off their access to Chinese exports.

    If you don’t support tariffs to bring back manufacturing jobs domestically, how do you think we could make it through a war with our manufacturing partners? I can’t reconcile the two ideas, and I don’t understand how some of y’all are.
