    Margaret Antwood shut the fuck up challenge. What successful civil rights movements ever worked by asking nicely of their oppressors? like really, it makes zero sense. It also reminds me of when bigots say shit like, "oh i don't mind the gays but i just don't want them rubbing it in my face." Meanwhile hetero shit is fucking EVERYWHERE, you cannot escape it, especially in media.

      Proles, beg politely for crumbs so those in power can say "no" and then laugh at you. It's so ingrained in the centrist (and the lib) sense of "normal" they don't even understand how moronic they can be. Take this stupendous Nate Cohn tweet for example...

      I think it's totally reasonable to argue that campaigns shouldn't embrace ideas before they are popular. It is not realistic to argue that activists shouldn't advocate for ideas before they're popular.

        The modern liberal is a creature entirely devoid of any historical knowledge or culture. I kinda find it funny how Lenin talks about communism as "living life by storybook aphorisms" and now we have an incredibly powerful and moronic political tendency that thinks exclusively in storybook aphorisms.
