  • They always think they’re so clever as well with their “witty” comebacks. I notice they’re always ignoring responses that they can’t actually challenge. Nothing says “my position is the correct one” quite like just pretending the people who point out the flaws in it just don’t exist and only focusing on the people insulting them.

    electoralism can’t work, voting won’t fix this

    voting for the democrats is bad

    It’s much more a case of electoralism does nothing to help the working class people, only the rich and by voting for the parties and participating in their system, you’re accepting their false idea that voting for one of two genocidal parties is the only option.

    So it’s an idea that electoralism will do nothing to stop the genocide, but will provide support for the very system that has lead to this “choice” between two actively genocidal parties. The US tries to frame itself as a democracy, but if the people actively opposed the system, recognising it as undemocratic, the ruling class would need to actively give concessions to the working class, or face revolt.

    It’s like a worker’s strike. If your boss treats you like shit and doesn’t listen to anything you or the vast majority of their employees say, then you make your voices heard one way or another, if the “official channels” for making your voice heard don’t work, then you need to use a different method, the alternative of passive acceptance of the system does nothing but show the people in charge that they can continue on their current path and people will do nothing to stop them.

    So since the democrats refuse to budge on this issue of genocide, we can surmise that “electoralism can’t work, voting won’t fix this.” as the powers that be will not change their minds on this issue. Voting for the democrats shows that despite them actively supporting a genocide, the voting public won’t “strike” and will meekly accept anything they do, regardless of how horrific it is. So this is why “voting for the democrats is bad.”





  • I do wonder how this period in history will be looked at in the future. Will this been seen as a strange and incomphrensible state of affairs? That people will wonder how the US and the west could ever have justified their behaviour? Will this just been seen as the end period of the “white man’s burden” era? Will there be people who fall for the propaganda centuries or even millennia from now, the same way we still have people falling for propaganda pushed out by the ancient Romans?










  • It’s funny watching them pull this shit in the one place it wouldn’t fly. I reckon a lot of these guys forget that only American libs are gullible enough to fall for their egg monopoly sob stories, the rest of us think of them as the spoilt failsons that they are, mad they didn’t get to coast through life on daddy’s factory money.
