Why is it a dichotomy lol

[-] Bread_In_Baltimore@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

If I had to guess it's because they see the term leftist as another meaningless term like progressive, which I kinda agree with. I think refusing to be labeled a leftist is dumb but I definitely hate when people say "leftism"

That whole excerpt reminded me of a meme my old boss showed me of one of Obama's books but the title was changed to "Where the White Women At: White Women and where they is at".

Definitely fit the bill of one of those things that would've been racist if a white guy showed me lmao

I mean I only care about people's feelings insofar as they affect material results. I don't think there will be a revolution any time soon but the obsession with moral atonement like """"""leftism"""""" is a religion is entirely counterproductive. The demand for self-flagellation among former troops is part of a broader trend on the western left, which in it's impotence has latched onto moralizing as it's primary focus. I don't think that spending years investing time in disparaging and admonishing troops is going to end well when the time comes. We don't live in a place and time where angry masses with semi auto rifles can take on the largest and most technologically advanced military in the world. It wouldn't be like Vietnam or Afghanistan, it would be a conflict of life and death for the Imperialist forces and they would treat it as such. Revolution in the imperial core would necessitate major defections from Imperialist security forces, most likely from those that are colonized people themselves.

I mean I can't respond to you unless you tell me what the goal of a left wing movement is, and how you think it can be achieved. Otherwise I can only assume you don't care about the end result and only the moral purity of the movement itself

Lol literally all of my comments have been sarcastic, why do you think I'm raging? I'm not a troop, never have been one and never will be one and I've even cucked troops on more than one occasion lol. I just think it's funny as fuck that people on twitter dot com love stirring the pot and think making moral judgements is praxis.

Answer my question, what is the goal of a left wing movement in your mind?

[-] Bread_In_Baltimore@hexbear.net 2 points 4 years ago

Communism is when you declare individual moral culpability for their role as cogs in an oppressive machine and the more you declare it the more communister it is. In fact, Marxism is 100% about the moral veracity of individual actions. That's why Engels was an evil counterrevolutionary for continuing to manage a factory his father owned despite claiming to be a """Communist""" and Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai were reactionaries since they are products of the exploitative Chinese landowning class.

Don't be too specific, obviously.

The dumbest thing about stupidpol is they think they're materialist marxists that aren't tainted by liberal identity politics but in reality they're just fucking socdems who get uncomfy talking about anything that doesn't benefit them personally. They all worship Adolph Reed who does have some good critiques of the Western left but is generally a bad Marxist and not a Leninist in any way. These people don't believe in the concept of the labor aristocracy presumably because it sounds "radlib". They think you will be able to get a bunch of chud plumbers who make $80k/year and own their own property and a big fancy truck to be socialists through AFL-CIO union membership lmao.

Look at those soy boobies 👀

Idk if you guys realize this but basically everyone who makes their money as a public figure, especially if they've been one for decades, is against cancel culture. It's because they're scared that they said something 20 years ago on a recording that will get them cancelled and they will have to work normal jobs.
