After seeing a few "MORE 👏 WOKE 👏 GENOCIDES" takes today, I think liberals are just unable to think of politics in a useful and informative way. They constantly post observations like "wow Trump is so awful, I'm starting to miss Bush!" These thoughts don't do anything except let liberals appear politically aware when they are really just spinning their wheels.

So much of what liberals do and say is, to a lot people, incredibly paralyzing and alienating. Comparing Bush to Trump in that way doesn't offer any useful critique of either person, and it just allows Bush to rehabilitate himself.

That's why it's important to be aware of how you think about this stuff. You have to ask yourself "Is this thought going to do anything other than make me paralyzed? or is it helping me understand what's going on around me so I can be better informed about my actions?"

The key to being a good leftist is thinking carefully about the world around you so your actions can better reflect your material conditions.
