The 13th ammendment explicitly permits slavery, as long as the geverment says you committed a crime. (like being homeless)
Plantation hand-assed comment. John Brown would've ventilated your ass.
"John Brown would have killed you." The response to all liberals.

I'm going to phrase this as politely as I can to you, with respect to knowing you and your history on this site:Fuck that, you don't deserve my respect: if all you've got is paternalistic optics games and tone policing, then please shut the fuck up. I do not play optics games. I do not respect tone police. Optics games will not save anybody, will not push policy, will not do ANYTHING MORE than legitimize the propriety-poisoned society we're forced to toil under.The FACT OF THE MATTER IS every body, Black, brown, or otherwise, that gets funneled through the Department of Corrections pipeline is turned into a slave. By Amerikans. The FACT OF THE MATTER IS that every Amerikan that fails to fight this, that plays these cute little semantics games to make the crackers feel like they're not complicit, that bears plantation water, is JUST AS COMPLICIT in the slavery that never ended in this country.
As far as I'm concerned, this is a davel-tier comment.

I find myself saying "I had so much higher hopes for them" irritatingly frequently lately.
I gotta say I am sorry bout that dipshit and they got banned before I got back home, but your replies had me fucking dying while I was on my breaks reading the thread.

You pander to liberal ignorance in ways that will never lead them to the facts. "Letting them have their say" is actively enslaving and profiteering off of carceral chattel, you absolute fucking spin doctor. I feel like I've argued with you before on matters you had no fucking room to opine on, while book-worshipping the whole way-- which my undying and perennial response to is that if you apply rote book knowledge from one specific set of material conditions to another situation whose material conditions do not 1:1 match, you are committing book worship. THIS IS A FORM OF LIBERALISM.
EDIT: Oh my god, I have had this go-round with you before. Don't bother responding further; you're still the same old cracker with shit takes on the colonized and enslaved. I'm not doin this with you. Why they even let you still breathe here is beyond me; but they also allowed TheAnonymouseJoker and davel for good long runs, so maybe they just lenient.
The more I keep thinking about this, the funnier it gets, y'know-- it amazes me how any other time your shit takes on the colonized get addressed, you never have the time for it; but oooooh let someone talk mess about crackers, liberals, or the intersection of liberal crackers. Then you got all the time in the world to come play paternal.

Book worship regarding text that doesn't apply 1:1 to the Amerikan condition. You still don't listen. Fuck all the way off with this paternalist nonsense, peckerwood. This country's crimes will never be scrubbed away but with the blood of colonizers.
We've done the polite explaining for decades and it's gotten us nowhere. What worked in China doesn't work in burgerland
Did not expect the wholesale rejection of Mao on Hexbear today.
It's worth noting that Mao's point (which is apparently tailism!) has been echoed all over the place (see
"we can never stop explaining"), and that nothing the U.S. left has tried worked either. I put more weight on things that have worked somewhere than on things that have worked nowhere.
Sure and I want to agree with you! As I've said in other comments last week, I believe our culture puts us in a position where it is much harder to get Americans to even listen vs. Places like China.
I believe Chinese culture is more geared toward community, helping your neighbors, looking out for each other, etc. Same for many places. Not in America. We are hyper-individualist to an absurd degree. Just drive down any stretch of highway to see how selfish the average driver is. See how many crashes we have because people have no respect for others on the road. Then walk down our streets and see all of the litter, all of the dog shit that isn't being picked up, etc. We want to be left alone and we don't care about others at all. We are greedy, resentful, selfish, etc.
You may say that is a product of Capitalism, but I believe there's more to it here. Even among other capitalist countries I don't see the amount of carelessness present in everyday life. Ex: In Japan there are norms around eating in public, taking your trash with you, giving space in public, and so on.
okay, so patiently explain to them how prison-slave labour and the 13th amendment work.
What's a that old saying "you can't a convince a man against something his salary depends on"? Or something.
Liberals believe what they do because they have to to maintain their positions. You'll never convince a homeowner that's interested in their property values that crimes against humanity are occurring to raise said value. Time and time again they've been patiently explained too and their views still allow for horror. Absent explication these laws have obvious conclusions of which even incurious people should easily be able to divine, the fact so many cannot or claim to not shouldn't be surprising to a materialist. The serene explanations can be set aside for something else.
Maybe you want to but I'm not about to put the emotional labor in writing a response to a liberal that still wants to kill the homeless.
Absolutely nothing about that person's comment suggested they want to kill homeless people. They said they didn't believe Democrats want to enslave homeless people.
Arguing with them doesn't accomplish anything either. Wishing them a very
takes less time, is more satisfying, and is about as likely to change their minds.
Believing that we can't change people's minds is defeatist. All I'm saying is that meeting "I don't think Democrats want to enslave the homeless" with essentially "kill urself" isn't going to change minds.

Comrade they are literally going to do this. They issue a ticket which a person cannot pay, and after so many tickets, incarcerate that person, and then they become slave labor, what's the exaggeration here

I agree, but I also don't feel the need to sugar coat topics to appease liberals in our explicitly leftist space.
As usual we are all correct here
If this is just a space for lefties, we shouldn't get so high on our own supply that we forget how to talk to libs, or the necessity of persuading people to join us.
If this is a lefty space that is frequently visited by non-leftists, and can be used as a way to persuade them, then we shouldn't be staking out the hottest possible take and telling people they should be shot if they disagree.
Hate it to break the news, but to be quite frank, literaly nobody believes this, nobody sees HB like this, certainly if you stick around for long enough you'd have seen the cycles of people coming and going and how discourse changes.
Believe it or not this site used to be quite a bit more in favor of "harm reduction" in 2020. The current trend you see of complete rejection of Biden is not something that came overnight, even if for some that was Oct 7th, for most others 2o20 was already the compromise. Just go back and look at the trauma people here got from Biden's handling of COVID.
That is now part of this site history, "harm reduction" is now a complete and utter shitty joke and a meme as a result.
So as you can see, nobody now visiting this site believes there will be any discourse with people to the right of us like liberal dems. We did that and the Americans here already got burned from it.
We welcome liberals and people further to the right if they're honest about learning and changing, but nobody is under the illusion there is any debate or convincing anyone anymore. We tell Libs can go and eat shit and die, after all its what they told us throughout COVID for example.
I am amenable to this vibe but also its important to demonstrate to reddit brained
that we have actually done more work in developing a politics that has materially worked far greater for far more people than anything they have conceived of. They're here as guests and can ask questions in good faith but assertions are just a stupid thing to do going into any space that is dominated by any ideology
I don't think "well, gee, I know you love the Democrats, and who knows, maybe they had good intentions when they tried to criminalise homelessness" will lead to a mass movement
I'm not saying anything close to that. "Democrats will piss and moan and then go right along with the worst shit Republicans do" is basically the opposite.
Sticking to the actual facts -- Democrats are immediately going along with this horrible thing Republicans did -- does not mean pulling punches, or watering down how shitty Democrats are.
Sticking to the actual facts, both Republicans and Democrats are doing fucked up shit. It's not "Republicans do bad thing" followed by "Democrats follow along"
You don't go "whoops, guess I'll criminalize homelessness now that it's an option"
You don't dilute the bastards' crimes even by 1%, or the liberals will go "see, we may not be perfect, but it was the Republicans who started this! It's not our fault"
You're right, and you're right that we should point that out, too.
What I'm saying is that we should stick to the bad things Democrats actually do, not exaggerate. There is no need to exaggerate because Dems do plenty of horrible shit already, and exaggeration doesn't persuade people who don't already agree with you.
Calling things out for what they are isn't "exaggeration."
Letting liberals dictate the tone in which things are discussed, a tone which has normalized material and political support for genocide in Palestine, is a losing strategy.
Do you not equate imprisonment in the US with enslavement? Like the thing they are being accused of doing is in fact what they are going to be doing. There's no exaggeration here. This is what I'm struggling with.
