Winning a revolution will most likely look like war. If that weren't true, we would not be where we are right now. We will need a violent force capable of defeating the combined forces of the military, the police and the right wing militias. We do not have that. That is one of several reasons why I think the anti-gun liberals have doomed us. This is obviously going to require work and planning that AFAIK is not being done, and I'm not a cop, no cops, don't tell me anything about anything that's going on
There is a secondary war we need to fight immediately. We need to be thinking, every day, about how we are going to win the propaganda war, or if you will, the info war, which is the war for your mind and the people's minds. It will start the day the election is decided. Biden will most likely win the election. The traditional sides of this war will be defenders of Biden's administration, and the right wing who will produce a vast quantity of material criticizing Biden and democrats based on things like the high unemployment rate, the stagnant economy, stagnant wages, etc. Things that most likely will be completely true, but their answers to them are wrong.
Our position, that neither democrats nor Biden are remotely good enough and they do not actually present solutions to the myriad problems facing our generation, will not be hypothetical. It will be tested and proven. We need to be the ones attacking Biden and the democrats, and the most politically clueless person in America should never be able to confuse us with the right while we do it.
We have good terrain. We are correct and our opponents are wrong and weak. Unlike with Obama, no one thinks Biden will be a transformational president. He has said repeatedly that he will not be a transformational president, which is IMHO an extremely bizarre position for a president to take in 2020. He is not popular. No one particularly trusts him. Fucking liberals were convinced that he was electable so they picked him. We lost the propaganda war while the conversation was theoretical. That era will be over.
As for the right, they are more wrong (with a few exceptions), they have no answers, but they have a powerful propaganda system and it will produce a never ending torrent of nonsense, but it will speak to people's actual situation. The uninformed masses will hear that part and assume that the right must be the team that will fight for them.
They are not. We are. We need to make that as clear as we can to as many people as possible. Nothing good can happen unless we can do so.
Hence the need to view Biden's election and subsequent failure as a recruitment opportunity. A lot of people will be picking sides over the next few years.
Can't recruit anyone if they're all at brunch, and the ones who aren't are most likely gonna fall into the right, hate to say it but with biden's victory the popular mainstream radlib "left" is discredited and by the unfair transient properties of guilt by association so are we
We're about to lose all our radicalization funnels, we're the seed bank, the last bastion, the final keep of helms deep, now we sleep until 2024 and hope the right and the bidenites have discredited themselves in turn by then
Our goose is cooked for four years comrade 😔
The reason I don't believe that is I started the Obama years as a moderately conservative dumbass (I was a libertarian) begrudgingly voting Democrat because Bush was so bad. I became a baby socialist when democrats failed to improve life in this country for anyone but big banks and insurance companies. We are headed into basically the same thing again. People are going to be mad about the results.
Yes that's true, but all of that won't reach a critical mass until 2024 at the earliest, took 8 years of Obama for the new left to reemerge, I predict it'll take at least four with Biden since he's more conservative than even Obama, but at the end of the day that's still four years, hell of a wait
We have a new left now. The modern left is much larger and much more anti-capitalist than the progressives were 2008. As such, maybe we can speed this process along. Quantity will do it.
There should be massive BLM protests the day after Biden’s inauguration to say “hey you fucking libs we are not going away”
