Besides the Gaza genocide, the other big reason a substantial amount of us willfully sat out fake democracy 2024 and cost Democrats their government majority was simply because we knew they'd be doing willfully horrid right-wing shit.
They had four years to stop doing it under Biden and didn't.
When did being coherent in opposing authoritarianism become a "purity test" to liberals exactly?
I'm old enough to remember just being coherent in that regard just made neoliberals go reactive mask off fascists when you had the decency to do that rather than appeal to that bullshit.
You can't be neutral on a moving train but you sure can laugh at neoliberals who think their shitty false dichotomies of choice are solid gotchas.
And these are the folk neoliberals think are smart enough to do tactical distractions from files related to a pedophile power broker?
Lolz!
Mainstream news ain't showing much how that Iron Dome doing shit to help Israel from getting bombed in places like Tel Aviv now.
All that money looted by the state from the oppressed that got put into it went into it has been a toilet flush.
Us working folk got robbed for absolutely nothing.
Ha!
The only therapy I'm banking on those kids getting is therapy for what abusive slave owning reality denying pricks their parents are.
Electorialism isn't just a placebo but a mind killer.
It has been passed off as actual democracy for so long it has cooked the brains of so many folk over here on the American continent.
I'm glad I did become an anti-electorialist. It's such a sanity saver that helps with basic empathy too.
If there's one you thing you can count on center-leftists to do once they get office through electorialism, they typically just got to work aiding the authoritarianism they're supposed to be against.
Happened with the German SPD party and it's happening with Mamdani.
Time is a flat goofy circle.
"Protect the kids" is just soft authoritarian language for "I want the youth in bondage and even more than they are already!"
We need to normalize youth liberation as that is DIRECTLY linked at the hip with the liberation of us adults.
Worse still is the fact copyright, being the bougie reification it is, has been completely turned into a cudgel to prevent anything really significant to genuinely fix Duke Nukem Forever in ways like a proper remastering and sequels either.
Capitalism has straight up fucked up video gaming.
This idea that "sTaTe nO CaN dO tHaT" really triple underlines how mainstream civics is only 10% educational and 90% manufactured consent.
The state and its operators have a lot of not so explictly noted abilities to dominate the oppressed than what the typical civics textbook leads us to believe.
"A leftist government doesn't exist because being on the left has nothing to do with governments."
—Gilles Deleuze
That's a weird ass sequitur.
How does that relate to Mamdani fish hooking to the right to throw transfolk he said he'd help under the bus?
I knew just from his elbow rubbing with a police commissioner and being willfully chummy with Trump that the electorialist rot was going to get Mamdani. He was going to politically fishhook to the right.
I'm honestly surprised he's fish hooking real quick and ESPECIALLY where transfolk go though.
When any leftist attains government office through electorialism, get a timer going.
Because they are ALWAYS going to be politically fish hooking to the right.
Politically milquetoast center-leftists of the past and the present like Mamdani just prove that but good.
Well, I'm definitely over that manufactured consent brainwashing.
I'm not gonna be removing my cap for yeeted thugs in standing armies that service state power anymore.
Be an actually better person and not violent bootlick and I'll take it off.
Unlike Trump, I have actual standards.
The only book related to civics y'all ought to actually focus on actually studying whenever a neoliberal brows beats you to go read one is this.
A right-winger saying they tried to warn people about the fascism they aided and support is the textbook definition of a redundancy.
No.
Back better candidates who aren't right-wing grifters or enjoy seeing anti-electorialism be the winning candidate again in fake democracy 2028.
Learn the difference between petty man-child temper tantrums and non-cooperation, bootlicker.
Get a good adblocker if you haven't.
It both starves capitalists of money and also makes it harder for inept knuckle drsgging slave patroller thugs to track you.
They made the willful decision to fight an oppressive nation-state and I'm supposed to be upset they got killed for that.
Screw that.
No tears for slave patrollers.

Happy International Women's Day. 🏴
Statism and capitalism are linked at the hip.
If the state has a monopoly on media then capitalists like billionaires do too.
Gotta love the dank irony of a neoliberal talking about "liberal naivety" there.
Yeah. Imma say it.
Letting nation-states having any sort of monopoly on film and TV has been a really bad idea put into practice.
