The tacit understanding here being that the funding and feelings of the police is more valuable than the lives of senior citizens.

    It was literally Q: What should the DSA be doing instead of electoralism? A: incorrect unserious ideas but in the right general direction, no mention of “10 years” and being “completely necessary”

    Communicating with you people is like chewing sandpaper. The whole point was that it was incorrect and unserious. So you agree with my post. What a tremendous waste of time. Also they did say that about 10 years.

    Quote:

    These are all things that need to be DONE, I didnt say they are easy or like seriously feasible in a short amount of time- but guess what these are major projects that should have been in the works for the american left since at least 2016.

    2016 is 2 months away from being 10 years ago. They’re saying these things need to be done and should have been done for the past 10 years. It’s there plain as day. I guess part of our problem is you’re not even reading posts, just skimming the first three words of every sentence and replying. You’re not even reading the posts you’re defending.

    I’m not spending all day itemizing posts and arguing with you about the definition of what words mean. You clearly went to the second or third page of the site, dug into 2 layers of replies just to find something to argue about. You just said you agree with my post so there’s nothing really left to argue about (with me). Go find someone else.

      Communicating with you people is like chewing sandpaper.

      Thinking is known to be a painful experience for amerisharts.

      The whole point was that it was incorrect and unserious. So you agree with my post. What a tremendous waste of time.

      You’re trying to cope and run away from the substance again. I agree that on a surface level, the post is incorrect. However, fact of the matter is that on a more substantive level, it is correct to pursue other types of action as opposed to electoralism and/or entryism into the genocidal imperialist democratic party.

      Furthermore, the unserious nature of the post we are both referring to, when combined with the correct general direction it sets, means that it can either be completely ignored or critiqued with respect to better ways of building a strong progressive mass movement in america that can challenge the bourgeois.

      After all the more serious general problem is not that there are too many leftists who are pursuing a genuinely more revolutionary line yet doing stupid things. Its that too many “leftists” are succdem copers who have faith in a bourgeois electoral system which props up genocidal parties.

      Again, the problem is your disproportionate response to some post that was unserious bullshit but done in good faith in the right general direction.

      This seems like some cope where you criticize and argue over the form of something because you disagree with the substance and yet can’t really find any valid arguments to criticize it because you know the substance is correct.

      I mean you’re basically posting like a condescending succdem streamer fan (“muh adults in the room”, “muh realism”) in response to someone giving some uninformed but good faith suggestions for pro-worker actions as alternatives to electoralism, which in the context of the “american left” means siding with the genocidal, white supremacist democratic party.

      Also they did say that about 10 years.

      so-true “YOU WERE WRONG ABOUT 1 MINOR SURFACE LEVEL DETAIL SO THIS INVALIDATES YOUR ARGUMENT BECAUSE YOU DIDNT READ EVERY SENTENCE OF SOME UNSERIOUS POST”

      Ok reddit. Honestly, so what? If anything they are right that the type of revolutionary working class movement-building as an alternative to electoralism had to be started 10 years ago at the very least. Again, its an uninformed post but they’re 100% correct terms of the general direction.

      You made a similar mistake in your 1st post and yet nobody cared because that would be annoying and counterproductive.

      I’m not spending all day itemizing posts and arguing with you about the definition of what words mean.

      That is literally what you have been doing with the other person but go on.

      You clearly went to the second or third page of the site, dug into 2 layers of replies just to find something to argue about.

      It was on the first page you absolute projecting coper. You’re the one who started this fucking nonsense argument.

      You just said you agree with my post so there’s nothing really left to argue about (with me).

      Denounce the democratic party as a genocidal, white supremacist organ of the bourgeois, admit that electoralism and entryism are bullshit, and admit that the person who you started arguing with was incorrect on the surface level but was correct in their adamant insistence on an alternative, more revolutionary, direction.

        The person goes on to inappropriately use the “disengage” rule to first bring up some irrelevant moderation history out of context, despite me not being bigoted and replying to them in a calm manner, and then prevent me from replying to fully dismiss me as some kind of unhinged chronically online reactionary.

        Kind of ghoulish and bad faith if you ask me.

        Also they are averaging about 13 comments a day using a conservative estimate, while I’m at about 2 a day, rounding up. Another case of projection.
