Anything I can do to combat these brigaders or is it best to give them the silent treatment?
Understandable. I chose my username with the intent of posting high quality ML and Maoist propaganda
I wouldn't say that. I'm speaking more in reference to the demography of DNC voters, who largely occupy highly populated states that proportionately grant a lower margin of electoral college votes than lower populated states in the interior. There's also voter supression due to the Robert Courts decisions made during the Obama years, and Trump's actions to accelerate the decline of the USPS as a means of stopping mail in ballots. Lastly, Dems only win high-turnout elections sicne the Republican base has always had a 90% approval rating of a Republican president, and votes for Republicans at the same rates. On the contrary, Democrats appeal to a broader, less reliable base that only turns out when the candidate is not running as a centrist. Obama's 2008 versus his 2012 voting share speaks a lot on this, and Biden isn't getting people to vote for him, notsomuch that they're voting "against Trump."
Never underestimate the DNC's capability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
Right, but the issue isn't the viability within the discourse, it's the larger macroeconomic forces at play. The US has failed to breach more than 3% growth while the 30% of GDP is public spending, most of which is funneled into health insurance and big pharma to keep these firms profitable. That being said, the financial sector of the US constitutes 40% of its GDP, and those speculative markets are based on the assumed long-term stability of these debt-based markets and heavy administrative/bureaucratic load associated with billing. If you were to nationalize healthcare and wipe student/medical debt, this would trigger a cascading effect since healthcare alone accts for 20% of the US's total GDP. Since Big Tech is also based on the idea that endless profits can be realized from datamining consumer spending habits (many startups worth billions have never turned a profit), a strong hit in professional managerial class aggregate demand, which constitutes the majority of US consumerism, from de-bureacratization of these sectors of the capitalist economy would then kill the viability of Big Tech. Similar effects would occur with the war economy, which is why the Lincoln Project has been shilling for a war with Russia/Iran/VZ, to stimulate GDP growth one last time before capitalism's collapse.
What I'm saying is that although these ideas are popular now, restructuring the US economy to fit them would require such drastic change that we might as well estabish a fully socialist state, as it would take around the same amount of effort. Nontheless, Bernie primed the population for this. BLM's goals are essentially his policies, but proletarian instead of socialdemocratic.
Maybe +1-3 pts. by the election. This doesn't matter though if you remember how the electoral college works though, as a lot of those boomers getting polled live in high pop states like CA, TX, or NY where votes don't count anyways. Trump will win like last time by running "to the left" of biden rhetorically like he did Clinton and the DNC would love another 4 years in opposition.
BLM; The American Left doesn't exist in national politics. It exists in the streets, and to think a Bernie-style run could save us is to delude yourself on the declining rate of profit under neoliberalism. It's either capitalist healthcare and everything else, or revolution. It's not the 30s, profits aren't high enough that we can have a president (FDR) who acts like a mediator between the ruling and working classes. No war but class war
As we speak, masses of human shields are blocking courthouses and stalling evictions. Let me correct that, enfranchised Americans would be mowing down peasants and propping up fascists, but haven't they been doing that for all of US history? Let's be realistic here, BLM (in its actual on the ground contingencies) is pro-gun police abolition movement with direct demands to redistribute wealth to the proletarian classes. Their vanguard is largely comprised of MLs, MLMZT adherents, and AnComs who have managed to put the idea of full police defunding into the mainstream liberal discourse. When has this happened since the War On Drugs began? Never, not once. There were ideas before it in the 60s, but Americans were much more reactionary then and fell in line with Nixon's Southern Strategy.
What I'm saying is that we live in a time when GDP is dropping at double the rate of the Great Depression and electoralism at the national level is considered fully moot by the vast majority of Americans. Now compare this situation with other Anglo countries like NZ, Aus or UK. Sure they have better social safety nets now, but look at the people. Americans under 30 are mostly PoC and are radically anti-capitalist, don't give up the fight before it begins. If you do, BLM turns into liberal parades and progress gets set back a generation in reaction to liberal hypocrisy.
The choice is yours, which side are you on?
If you have subtitles, Spanish/Portuguese/Dutch are actually pretty easy to understand if you're a monolingual English speaker that reads a good bit. A lot of archaic words in English have cognates (equivalents) with modern Spanish especially, and if you're aware of the Latin/West Frisian roots present in the language we speak, they're not hard to decipher. Not saying it'll make you learn, but it's cool to be able to pick up an article in Portuguese and know about half of what they're saying
Are You There Yakub? It's Me, Louis Farrakhan.
It's how you frame the history and present the facts. Under Mao, millions of landlords died but Mao was literally just letting the peasants do what they had wanted to do for dynasties. The Chinese landowning class was FAR worse than the kulaks
Ghoul takes acid: Hmm yes we are all interconnected via capital flows, which move toward me because I am a godking destined to rule this wretched earth. Morals are an abstract constriction meant to stop people from fulfilling their true destiny. John Galt did nothing wrong
An admin on a site that looks like reddit (works sooo much better ngl), but they endorse landlord purges? BASED
nah he a spitter, SPITTIN STR8 FAX
With eviction rates at the 50% level combined with human shields blocking courthouses, I think we're witnessing the slow collapse of the US in real time. The Covid market dip is 2x worse than the Great Depression and we're only a little more than a quarter in. If the US doesn't manage to start a hot war with a regional power like Iran or Russia, its economy is in permanent decline as long as it remains capitalist. Declining rate of profit and all that jazz😎
It's of ideology. It's ok, they have friends. Fascists and pro-NATO "leftists" still support the riots
