You know absolutely nothing about me, I on the other hand know that you're a genocidal scumbag and a supporter of the USA.

[–] gkd@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

lol, somehow he believes that if you had voted for Trump none of this would have happened and Trump who is suggesting we remove all Palestinians from the US would have handled this better.

And seemingly also believes that had you done nothing it would have been a more powerful statement. Right, because allowing Trump to win would have been a good “fuck you” to Biden without any real world consequences.

Unless these people are out there plotting the coup of the history of mankind and not just idly complaining on the internet, then they need to just stop.

Oh, then proceeds to come up with some “trans lives don’t matter when compared to _____” or “you care more about ____ than _____?” Again, quit it.

Fucking right?! If the dude isn't being purpously disingenuous to derail democracy in America, its honestly sad.

Yikes, dude. Maybe don't use nazi terminology???

What praxis do you do outside of electoralism?

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ive attended multi protests/marches and have made a plethora of memes that spread class conciousness. However the onus isn't on me to give my praxis bonafides when I'm not the one encouraging civicdisengagement. What praxis havd you practiced?

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm literally advocating more political engagement, "you've got to vote to prevent fascism" is a lie, you've got to do a hell of a lot more than protesting and voting and making memes.

How are you building power?

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Underneath a meme I made while shitting, youre welcome. If you dont understand how building class conciousness isn't synonymous with building power, all i can tell you is that you need to read more theory.

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This meme doesn't build class consciousness though

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Never said it did, its encouraging political engagement, which you are actively discouraging by disparaging the Electoral system, which is a tool to stave off fascism long enough for class conciousness to build.

Electoral system, which is a tool to stave off fascism long enough for class conciousness to build.

It literally isn't, and it has never worked as one. What historical examples are you basing this on? How many books have you actually read on the subject?

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

What books would you recommend?

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I would start with the "economy and class structure of german fascism", "The capital order" goes into how neoliberalism is connected to fascisms modern resurgence.

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

I'll see if my library has em, but i am very well aware of how Neoliberalism is connected to fascism from what I have read on marxists.org I just dont agree with abstaining/denegrating the electoral process to remain ideologically pure. Criticism is great, but discouraging voter turn out in leftist spaces does nothing but accelerate mask off fascism from returning to power ie. The 2016 election.

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Also relative to the Dems the Republicans are right, you absolute ham sandwich. I'll vote for a Neoliberal all damn day to fight mask off fascism that the Republican party is championing.

[–] LarkinDePark@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Also relative to the Dems the Republicans are right

Lol, okay?

I’ll vote for a Neoliberal all damn day

You know it's okay to refuse to take part in a crooked system instead off getting blood on your hands, right?

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No it isnt, allowing tge Republicans to win would quite literally stain my hands with the blood of my trans Comrades. Your whataboutisms are pathetic, glad you are privileged enough to not have to worry about mask off fascism taking control in America. Voting for the lesser of 2 evils still reduces the amount of evil in the world.

[–] LarkinDePark@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

my trans Comrades

Why are you appropriating left wing terms to try justify your genocide? How many of the tiny percentage of humanity is American? And what percentage of those are trans? And of those, what percentage are "comrades", do they support genocide too?

You're just making up excuses for your white supremacism.

Voting for the lesser of 2 evils still reduces the amount of evil in the world.

It literally doesn't you ignorant Nazi removed. It just papers over the cracks.

The only moral choice you have is to stop supporting the USA.
