tankies are such a small niche group, i dont think theres enough of them to have a significant on policy, unlike right wingers have real numbers on thier hands.
Isn't there a difference between the right and the far right though
The right is sill around. They just have a 'D' next to their name.
I don't think any of this happened last time the democrats were in charge? Or any other time before that. Seen from Europe, democrats are definitely right of center, just less so than republicans.
All I'm saying is everything is further to the right in the US. These things you listed aren't even partisan issues here, they're just normal things. But I see you're just downvoting and arguing so I'll be on way cheers.
That's what the democratic socialists and social democrats want, sure.
The rest of the Democrats call them radicals and Hakeem Jeffries just told them to leave the party.
We'll leave aside that those policies don't line up as well with your initial statement as we're pretending because that still leaves us at Jeffries telling everyone not a neoliberal to fuck off.
Him and the other 94 Democratic reps that voted to honor a Nazi propagandist don't seem to have received the memo that's there's plenty of general policy to align on.
the one's who do the bad shit and the one's who support it. sure if thats enough difference for you ig
In many cases, I think so. People everywhere get their morality from culture. Since many people are raised conservative, and risk damaging their social connection in their community by straying from conservative values, people can be very protective of certain social conventions and perspectives, out of fear of social isolation or even alienating themselves from their actual nature in order to adhere to social convention.
Its an understatement to say that the far right/fascism weaponizes this fact. But many many conservatives are workers which means that they share lived exploitation with the rest of us. Capitalism is the force that divides the working class, and when we participate in divisive/sectarian tendencies then whatever ideology we claim, leftist or whatever, then we are carrying water for the billionaire class.
Its not always that simple though. Many people experience real trauma by having conservative values thrust upon them. Objective morality is a plague, but so is dualism. We need to think completely differently and work with others to navigate these dynamics
You’re not wrong. Many of them are exposed to propaganda on TikTok and it is a growing issue. Espionage is being done to divide the left and consolidate the right. Just because it’s not as noticeable as the propaganda from the right doesn’t mean that it’s not having subtle effects. If it gets people to disengage or not look out for their best interests then it is effective. All this to say, there is a way to bring about positive change and that has to do with being involved locally.
Lol
The tankies engaged in hypercapitalism
Thanks for the grasroots money, this small group is actually very loud. The loudest of them all. They maintain the illusion that communism is when you like Russia, and that's their entire purpose
The fuck are you babbling
You know exactly what I'm talking about, don't be all shy about it now
I just joined the devs’ instance for technical support reasons, not ideological ones. I'm certainly not a tankie, gross.
So no, I still don't know what you mean with that “money”.
For examle, Russia spends enormous amount of money on foreign propaganda, both internaly and externally. That money.
