Amazing stuff, just :chefs-kiss:
One thing I don't understand about chuds and libs is this insistence that the "far left" lives in Ivory towers? A lot of people who use this site, for example, are poor, and the other part of the site are mildly comfortable with tech jobs or whatever. Neither of these constitutes '"ivory towers"
This is just projection, they run most if the liberal "democracies" in the world. They own all of the businesses, the media and education.
Pure projection. It's like how Fox News hosts use the term "special interest Ivy League elites" when Bill O'Reilly and Ben Shapiro literally graduated from Harvard.
Ok but that's still implying all people on the far left are academics, which is wrong as hell
And also, academics aren't paid that much, so it's not like they're billionaires or anything.
Those god damn commies and their thinking! Don't they know that thinking ruins america!?
I know plenty of professors who sleep in their cars. I literally walked past one the night after the election.
Have fun losing the next election then, Dems!
Lmao they never learn.
They do. They're just lying because its in their interest.
Why do you assume they want to win?
Honestly, I think its more symbiosis of two horrible parasites feeding on the same host than anything conspiratorial.
Disapproving of Ritchie Torres from the ivory tower of...
«checks notes»
... Gaza?
Then why did millions vote for Sanders twice in the primary, who is considered far-left by this guy’s standards?
This man is a menace.
Apparently he represents the poorest district in the country, ran unopposed, and rarely if ever is actually in his district.
Wait he was up for reelection and no one ran against him?
In The Bronx too, right in the center of the most electoralist DSA chapter.
It entertains me to no end that electoralists are so bad at what they do. It's like they enjoy the disrespect.
Almost like losing is the point and electoraliam is just a machine for generating excuses, for people who want to talk about a better world but are afraid of losing their table scraps.
I dunno I have known many true believers in electoralism among DSA-adjascent types. Obviously the capitalist parties are rife with cynics, climbers, and "I got mine"s, and this bleeds into ostensibly left spaces, but I think most are people who are seriously committed to wrong ideas.
I know one person that has literally never won a single campaign they've been a part of. They've been the campaign manager for several. They call anyone that isn't into electoralism an "ultra" (lmao). And despite all of this, they never actually plan ahead for campaigns and they always start very late. Like... they give their opponents a 6 month head start. For seemingly no reason other than they don't even think about recruiting a candidate until around the filing deadline. And it's not for the money, they're usually unpaid for the work and they have a well-payinh job outside of this. And they have terrible political instincts.
Based on this and other experiences I think it is more that most lefties learn self-criticism and get over their incompetent electoralist phase so the only people that do electoralism are naive baby leftists and the incompetent and arrogant.
How are you gonna raise money vs AIPAC's strongest
soldier. Would have to be a grassroots DSA style candidate and even in this cycle we saw Bush lose her election to a flood of money.
He is also openly gay and Afro-Latino so its especially whack that he's so predisposed against a term other gay Latino people coined for inclusiveness
They (fuck) just can't stop forcing their (shit) fucking prouns into everything (see!?).
I think this tweet is genuinely the most politically illiterate shit I've ever seen.
Like how is this even real
The urge to reply to this with a fedpost is too strong.
These people wouldn’t know the “working class” if it slapped them in the face. In fact it has been slapping them, repeatedly, for a decade
