The DSA is the leftmost wing of US fascist politics, it's a perfect example of what people call leftism for the most part. All that interests them is the conditions of workers in imperial core countries. They just recently went to Cuba to denounce their revolution and refused to meet with their president. The arrogance is jawdropping.
True. Maybe it's to separate themselves from "[Music Artist] is OBJECTIVELY TRASH" posting
I can see why it would be perceived as an attack, but it's just a nudge like "psst buddy your alt behavior is just as transparent here as on twitter". Am I trashing the guy? No I'm saying he should actually read what he criticizes. I laid out the format for the attacks that make up most of these threads, like dismissing this author based on his introduction during a vlog he did. (Make a nonsensical parallel between something you dislike and another thing you can dig up criticism for and quote it at length without making your own criticism. People use this strategy to avoid discussion of current events, too. They claim something is an inter-imperialist war and then quote Lenin at length as if you can simply transplant analyses themselves from one time to the future instead of performing an analysis building off the methods of people who came before you & developed the science.) That's the kind of stuff you can do while playing HOI4 or Syrian Warfare or whatever. If people want to game and then dip into undialectical flame wars in their spare time that's fine with me, but I don't like dressing it up as this pseudointellectual pageantry for Twitter.
For that I always put [most sincere voice] but for some reason people take it the wrong way
I'm currently haunting the building waiting for the counter revolution from the other lords to come and torture everyone who led the jacquerie to death in my gaols so I no longer have the authority to grant you jesterhood
Yeah I think it's good when I read Varoufakis's stuff about techno feudalism I put down my visor and prepare to fulfill my duties for Peter Thiel
[dies of gout and hemophilia] [my successor is feeble from sucking on rocks that unknowingly contain lead we believe are medicinal] [you are freed from the gaol by a Jacquerie by the weekend]
Also 'TBQH' fills most of that whole niche TBQH
Thinly veiled insult. I do 30 min strength exercise (if you need more than that you're not lifting enough imo) 3x a week and go hiking once a week. Never seen anyone in the fitness comm here discuss routines or anything. Just "motivation" to work out.
