EDIT - Also I'd like to thank y'all for the amazing thread we've got going here. Real mix of comedy and quality discourse on the material situation
I wouldn't resign myself on libs just yet. Many people who are committed Marxists today were mindlessly parroting HK Protest talking points yesterday (I would know personally). But yes, it is a headache to go through now, even if we will get our "payout" later.
^ This absolutely. The circles might by smaller but a good portion of those who opted to fall in line with the safe "left" (libs) than risking social pariah status for
asking for proof of WMDsquestioning the narrative on Ukraine will quite soon be further and faster radicalized left when the ROI on this wars propaganda becomes too unpalatable for the ruling class and they move on to a fresh war to inflate their weapons stock prices because of aonce,twice,three timesfour in a lifetime economic recession. That's when the veil fades and anyone who was on the fence notices all their lib friends back at brunch and starts aggressively posting about how we can't trust the US narrative on new forever war. That's how they end up in this comment thread as principled non chauvinists, etc.Each time the cycle repeats we grow, we get popular, they get worried, we lose 70% of our new growth back to libs, then 25% return permanently. Rinse, repeat. Capitalisms self destruction is inevitable because they cannot survive against themselves and dial back the greed even one iota or be consumed be those who don't. Natural selection of the poorest outcome. Obv I'm making up numbers to illustrate a point and we cannot "sit and wait for it to happen" or whatever, but my point is their bandaids never quite stop the hemmoraging self inflicted gun shot wound.
Edit: To put it another way that I've seen stated before (paraphrasing) "The first world war led to the Soviet Union, the second world war led to the entire planet divided into two spheres of influence, communist and capitalist. Capitalism cannot survive their next."
