Another day, another dem L

It’s also putting too much of a great man of history spin on what happened. FDR only was FDR because he was reacting to organized labour of his day. If labour was disorganized there would be no new deal

Who needs pre-workout when you got the Communist Manifesto

but I still need to go to work to keep the make believe that is our society going

The absurdity of it all is this. I hear people at work talking about the future and things like nothing is happening in the broader world. If I bring it up I look like a crazy person though.

We’ve been individualized and unorganized by capitalism for so long and there is no outlet for unorganized people to do anything in response to the collapse. I feel like people are either in denial or just too afraid too admit it.

Have to protect our domestic McDonald’s

Yea he kinda got rid of all the scapegoats he could use. Immigrants are getting deported, every country is tariffed, DEI is “gone”. What else is there to blame?

When pushed on it they can only respond with, “it’s how the world works.”

I definitely feel like I hit a wall whenever they say this. Like damn okay do nothing about it and enjoy your suffering.

We are actually very lucky that Musk is the most uncharismatic person in the world. If he had just a little bit of charisma, or even Trump level charisma we would be so cooked.

Like how do you end up so hated when people in this country lick billionaires feet at every opportunity

That sounds so crazy that it just might happen

Isn’t this the same guy that said that there’s no difference in whoever gets elected?

What do you mean they dont care about norms??

wins again. Now we have to make Elon a trillionaire so he can defeat him

Its for their investors who just want to see some metric go up. It meaningless in the grand scheme of things other than they can get more vc funding maybe

There is someone in my company whose last name is Bourgeois

God, if India became a socialist super power it would be so joever

Have to give the radlibs credit for once

I found that in people who seem to be misanthropic, there is another paradox where they long to be with people or rather a single person with who they can have a deep relationship with. Im not sure if there is truly any human being out there that wants to be completely absent of relationships.

If there are, then what do they value in life? Do they believe in any meaning? What makes them get out of bed?

Now that I’ve read Losurdo’s Western Marxism, he definitely fits in with the intellectuals that Losurdo criticizes. Shame, because I found his analysis insightful at times

Honestly what is the alternative? We should let them get away with breaking the law? Yanis Varoufakis also had a similar take. While I agree making these people accountable does nothing to stop fascism, I don’t understand how this is a bad thing.

Maybe it’s just the wrong framing? Like you’re not going to stop fascism by just prosecuting the fascists, but I do think it’s a start. However I am confident that this will be the limit of how far they go and they will continue pushing neoliberal policies until their population is fed up. If there were an organized left this would be a prime opportunity.

If they let her get away with doing illegal shit, then i’d think that what she’s doing actually isnt illegal. I think banning her would scare more normies from supporting her, as they would think she actually did something bad. I could be wrong, cause I don’t live in France and don’t have a good pulse on the people there.

I think to the average person it looked like Trump was unfairly persecuted because he never actually faced any consequences. And I consider the “average person” as someone that doesn’t follow politics
