Chairman Daou is planning a revolution. Biden is ahead enough to get 270 if the remain vote isn't for Trump he'll increase his margin by small amounts. But where did that bring you? :back-to-me:
It should be over soon.

The 🇱🇷 2020 🇱🇷 American 🇱🇷 Presidential 🇱🇷 Elections 🇱🇷 are the single most important political event since The Last Fascist was VOTED 🔫 OUT 🔫. We on the admin team see it as our duty to enforce the views of our audience by any parasocial means necessary.
As a nacho-socialist cabal, we see no path to revolution other than by focusing the majority of our leisure time on consuming bougie media. Media that is obsessed with the details of an election we decided our preferences on months ago, if not years ago. Here's the bottom line: Voting makes you a good person and not voting makes you a bad one. Don't believe us? Just ask Lenin:
A democratic republic is the best possible political shell for capitalism, and, therefore, once capital has gained possession of this very best shell (through the Palchinskys, Chernovs, Tseretelis and Co.), it establishes its power so securely, so firmly, that no change of persons, institutions or parties in the bourgeois-democratic republic can shake it.
We must also note that Engels is most explicit in calling universal suffrage as well an instrument of bourgeois rule. Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you. Universal suffrage, he says, obviously taking account of the long experience of German Social-Democracy, is "the gauge of the maturity of the working class. It cannot and never will be anything more in the present-day state."
See? We can't let capital take control of this "very best shell"! Turtles belong to the people! And the way we do that is by voting for posts.

Every single time a lib posts an image of Trump/Trumpist America juxtoposed with Nazi Germany in regards to like his visual appearance, the presence of (armed) police, etc. makes it obvious it is literally just aesthetics to them. Which is why they conflate USSR with Nazi Germany because it also had to militarize and enforce strictness on the population to combat Germany in WW2.
And also that Ur-Fascism is treated as a start-and-end text on fascism by baby's-first-theory libs, which is mostly a social/cultural analysis of fascism by an anarchist, is but another example. It’s a good analysis on that aspect but it completely ignores the economical and power-political aspect of fascism and liberals don’t care because they just want to shallowly quote-mine professionals and academics to support what they already believe.
I do actually think Trump would become a fascist if the material conditions demanded it (they won't as long as there's no mass politics and left-wing opposition), but the liberal understanding of fascism is pathetically simplistic and aesthetic. We need to oppose similar aesthetic politics.
Libs don't understand that "ur-fascist" means "ur-fascist", not fascists. It's the general social beliefs of and individual or movement that come before fascism
"Drumpf is fascist so that must mean I'm an anti-fascist" I say as communists brawled fascists 100 years ago on the streets
nazis only existed for a few decades of the USSR's 69 (nice) year long history
How many of them know a leader other than Stalin and Gorbachev within that time frame?
