Capitalism will run your defenseless little commune over and salt the earth where it stood just to spite you. Ask me how I know: what did this dogmade country do to my people's leaders? Again, and again, and again, until the closest thing we have to earnest "civil rights leaders" anymore are sitting in prison under false government slander of being foreign-backed agents?
You want to talk about "deeply unserious" and don't even have a meterstick to measure how deep in the water you are, or floaties to keep from sinking-- you clearly can't swim.
If your revolution requires abandoning your principles and installing a fascistic leadership then what's the fucking point of your revolution in the first place?
What "abandonment of principles"? Unless it's one of your principles to not actually fight your oppressor in any meaningful way, in which case, I consider you little more than a fetishist of martyrdom. Do-nothing.
I love how you totally ignore that this country has been locking up my people's leaders, too. What, should it be one of my 'principles' to forget that this nation is fundamentally racist towards me and mine, and will not liberate us until we as a disciplined formation and state, demand liberation at gunpoint and knife's edge?
Y'know what: since you're such an enlightened settler, you tell me how you'd secure liberation for your people in such hostile conditions to your people's comfort, safety, and self-determination.
