I just came off a 24 hour shift this morning...
FDR's social-democratic chicken tendies
good hexbear splash screen text
And now the socdem tendies are widely considered to be too radical and unfeasible.
It's really weird to me because "becoming a functioning member of society with stable income" was a major radicalising factor for me.
A rare instance of a liberal recognising the impact of material conditions.
This sounds like a guy who probably thought "Yeah, of course communism/socialism/anarchism is a great idea, in theory." even when he was a 'radical'. His radicalism was not actually based in the refinement, usage and predictive properties of radical theories and practice, but simply how he felt and what politics he thought justified his feelings.
In essence, he is most Americans and a case study in the reasoning why, on the whole, material interests are greater than ideology.
Just reads like he's desperately trying to convince himself of contentment and a feeling of fitting into the status quo because he's tired of feeling isolated by the feelings within him.
Or I'm projecting
No that sounds about right lol. Like there comment was more for their own benefit than anyone else
my beliefs got abandoned
coward needs to use passive voice to hide their choices to become a class traitor
LMAO the 24 hour shift
Also, the "I got mine" mentality is funny when it sounds like being a functioning member of society for this person really means teetering on the edge of functional lol
When you go "this is hell" and then go "oh fuck, I have it better than so many others, we need to tear it down"
That whole thread was basically full of former radlibs who were never particularly radical and "deradicalized" because of "disappointment with the Sanders campaign", the like one honest answer was the dude who said "a mortgage and a 401k". Oh and for a lot of these "former radical leftists" "disillusionment" was usually getting yelled at online. Real coherent politics these people have.
Also lots of former Nazis who got their politics from fucking YouTube videos and "mellowed" after getting disillusioned
I know a self-described neolib who lives with his brother and keeps trying to make him charge him rent.
Cringing scabs posting Ls, just another day in the wacky land of unironic elite worship
I just came off a 24 hour shift this morning…
Keep staning neoliberalism you're gonna get alot more of those "24 hour shifts", fuckin class cuck
"I'm being hyper exploited as the planet boils, but now I'm being bought off with table scraps so I no longer believe radical change is necessary"
Regarding rich people, i'd hope they were not murdered, perhaps executed if the crime and laws permit, preferably re-educated.
all i know is that china has executed multiple billionaires and the US has executed 0.
