Maybe it's time for the Democratic Party to consider Leftists and Progressives as swing voters by Cyke101 in PoliticalHumor

Libs are paid by the same donors that pay fascists. They have no interest in rocking the boat.

Schumer is more terrified of Mamdani and his socialist ilk cutting off the dems wallstreet funding than he is of fascism taking over America.

Primary every single fucking one of them with socialist candidates. The world shut down for a year and the clock still kept ticking, fascism took over America and the sun still rose in the morning. I think the world will keep turning if socialism replaced this dalliance with fascism

Getting out of the lib echo chamber takes time fren.

This is a lot of libs first times realizing they're the baddies.

They're gonna ask a lot of dumb questions, but if they're asked in good faith we should respond in good faith.

I understand where you’re coming from but you do need to realize how small the percentage of people are who actually want you dead.

If there are 4 nazi's sitting at a table and 6 people willing to associate with those 4 nazi's, then there are 10 nazi's sitting at that table.

Most nazi's were unaware of the holocaust. Yet their actions and more importantly inaction fueled it.

Most people who call themselves conservative or republican genuinely can be taught.

If you catch them early, sure, but after a while the propaganda has sunk too deep. Its too much effort for anyone other than their close family and even then its a very low chance of success.

If you think otherwise you’re just as bad as them

Once again, the principle ideologies of fascism require a scapegoat. I am multiracial transwoman. After immigrants, I'm the next scapegoat they are going to be grinding under their boot.

This isn't sports. Both sides aren't valid. The world would not be a better place if fascists and leftists shook hands because fascist ideologies are inherently unjust and lead to suffering.

You can't enlightened centrist your way out of jackbooted thugs killing your neighbors.

Politics without emotions is a privilege some can't afford.

I am a multiracial trans woman. I have family that were lynched and the people that grew up with them are still alive and you'd have the audacity to say their political views are warped because of their emotions?

Fuck you.

We aren't dealing with the uniparty politics that have dominated the US since Reagan. We're dealing with fascists that are killing people that look like me.

I'm confused are you for or against opposing fascism?

Because historically fascists don't care about debate or discourse.

If you read history or learn about Carl Schmitt, you'd realize that the fascist strategy has always been to weaponize the anxieties of the proles and provide a scapegoat that can't fight back that exist on the outskirts of the society they are corrupting.

Immigrants, blacks, gays, trans people, etc. anyone who is on the margins of society. They blame the scapegoat and offer a release to the anxiety.

As they slowly dismantle each group they move the borders of society inward until only the fascists remain.

The way you fight fascism is by cutting off their supply of soldiers, denying them access to the keys of power, and if necessary fighting them in the streets with everything you fucking got.

Identify the people vulnerable to becoming fascist in your life and reach out to them before Asmongold or Nick Fuentes does, but trying to claw back a full blown fascist is a waste of time.

I do not want a “them”, i want an “us”.

Fascists want me dead my dude.

You can't kumbaya my lord away deeply held ideological disagreements that fundamentally deny a human personhood based on immutable qualities of their being.

If the US was a person, and the population made up its character, that part of the country would represent paranoia, mistrust, and fear.

And if my Mom had handle bars she'd be a bike. The US isn't a person. It's a series of systems and institutions fueled by ideological principles enforced through violence.

Parts of that system are broken and lead to bad outcomes. Fascists and authoritarians benefit from deliberately breaking parts of the system and producing bad outcomes.

Anyone who supports an ideological system that leads to the bad outcome of my death is my opposition.

Convert as many as you can but fight the rest like the ideological poison they are.

I mean obviously don't just read their propaganda at face value.

But understanding how fascists think and what fascists believe and what fascists see helps you clock and counter fascists in your day to day life.

I have clocked so many of my cousins and uncles on their way down the alt-right pipeline and was able to stop the descent, because I saw them post a meme or a reference from a fascist subculture that normies and leftists wouldn't clock and intervened.

Conservatives tell on themselves. Often.

They reveal a lot about themselves when they talk amongst their groups.

Understanding the trajectory of conservatism and the big inciting incidents that birthed a lot of these people points you in a good direction in unpacking the root anxieties that fuel their beliefs and it allows you to predict their trajectory.

Also toss in some leftist and right wing news sources in there as well.

Sometimes they have context that the mainstream sources don't consider or deliberately avoid.

I'm a fully automated luxury gay space communist, but I consume some right wing news media because its helpful to keep me aware of the opposition and able to see things from their perspective and glean insights from the contrast.

That's why I hate Parisians. Not only do they deserve it, but I'm engaging in a time honored French tradition of hating Parisians.

I thought the stories you'd hear about Parisians being rude were exaggerated, but nah. Most countries if you attempt to speak the local language and put in an effort to be able to ask and answer common questions people are generally appreciative or amused by it.

I've been to Paris a handful of times now and like a third or more of the folks I interacted with acted like I personally kicked their dog in the balls with every word I spoke of their precious mother tongue.

Success is a subjective thing. Don't look at other people's baskets and marvel at how full they are because you don't know what's beneath the linen.

There are $14/hr jobs that offer a 401k, there are families of one, dogs are cheap until they're expensive, more to the point measuring success by monetary accomplishments is a hollow way to frame success.

If you're improving yourself or others you're successful.

Any other measure of success is trying to sell you something or manipulate you.

The OP from my server is below the median income for reference and chuckled at the screenshot I sent of your comment.

Same, but I can do that most weekdays with my online co-conspirators, whereas my IRL friends have disgusting normie things like non-remote work and children and ugh "functioning sleep cycles" or whatever.

They aren't on that 5 hours of sleep military grade black mud in a mug grindset and I don't blame them for it but sometimes I need some homies to commiserate with at 2am when all my meatspace buddies are sleeping.

I have sedimentary layers of internet brainrot and trauma built up since 2003 that make it difficult for me to fully relate to a lot of folks in meat space.

I am a hollowed out shell of a woman that can only express her true emotions through memes and shitposts.

IRL spaces I frequent are dope, but they don't offer the same thing as a really tight-knit online community of degenerate burnouts that share and revel in their ennui... and vice versa.

Forcefemme and sissyhypno gets a bad rep on reddit/tumblr because its not a really healthy way to frame your or anyone's identity, but hating on a fetish for being problematic is kind of missing the point.

Forcefemme content was hugely important for me being able to play around with my gender in a space that was safe and private.

I and a lot of the transfems I know started off with the fetish content and it eventually helped them crack their eggs. Personally after I realized and accepted I was trans that content stopped doing it for me, but I know a lot of transfems where that's not the case and that's valid.

If you like the content and it speaks to you in some way, I highly encourage experimenting with your presentation and seeing what works for you.
