Let’s give the land back to the Native Americans then! Surely they can’t do worse than our inherently corrupt, atrocious system, right?
Certainly if we are “first past the post” and our biggest hope for change and “most progressive” president is a bigoted genocidaire, we’re better with them in charge, agreed?
i don’t think a group of people that the state has spent centuries stamping out are in a position to successfully hold together a country as wide-spread and diverse as the united states, so i feel like just handing it over with no other intervention is as good as a free for all, and i think that just leads to a right wing takeover
Yikes, so you oppose returning the land to Native groups for the sake of holding together a nation that is objectively more racist and genocidal than Nazi Germany. Yikes.
That’s not what they’re saying. They say that if you gave land back right now, you’d have massive violence against natives and likely other marginalized people by the fascists that have been building militias for years now. A revolution needs popular support, and I just don’t see that at the moment.
Voting will also not change that. But neither will not voting, at least not for the better. Treat it like a chore, like you’re taking out the trash. That won’t clean your house, but if you don’t, you’re gonna live in filth before long.
Liberals think that voting is the end of politics, but that’s where the actual work begins. Organize your workplace, your local community and with marginalized people. Build the support needed to tear this fucked up, cruel and callous system down. So when the collapse comes, fascism will not win. The people will.
Are racist? Yeah probably. But I refuse to accept that they always will be. And there can’t be a leftist revolution without popular support. The only reasonable way I see going forward is to build leftist support structures now, and organize, organize, organize. I think at least the young generation is coming around on capitalism, and we must make sure they get directed to the left, and not fascist demagogues
Good, and step one is to dissolve the state, right? So what if is your problem with my post? It’s objectively impossible to espouse anarchism/leftism without working toward the collapse of fascist nations like the US.
In all seriousness, what do you think would happen if the state collapsed tomorrow?
We as the left are so disorganized, there would be nothing stopping fascists filling the power vacuum. I’m an anarchist myself, but for the revolution not to fall against the counterrevolution, we need to be ready to make sure that that power vacuum stays empty. That requires strong unions, self defense forces, mutual aid networks and much more. None of which we currently have. We absolutely work towards the collapse of the state. But on our terms, and with something better ready to replace it with. The revolution won’t happen on it’s own, it’s a long and arduous process.
i believe i said i oppose returning the land to native groups with a completely hands-off approach because it would most likely lead to a right-wing uprising within the country, which would ultimately strip said native groups of their newly held rights anyway
We’re set to collapse regardless, because our sitting president refuses to stop committing genocide and border fascism, so it doesn’t really matter whether we like it or not, now does it? America is dying.
Personally, I think that’s best. Death to America.
Why would you be cosplaying Columbo? Because of my pfp? That’s absurd. Surely Columbo would use logic instead of anti-indigenous capitalist propaganda.
but if the right wing took power of america’s arsenal i think more Palestinians and immigrants would die

certainly sir right you are
but, just one more thing

The majority of people here are racist and will always be racist, so you’re right that pandering to popular support is a dumbass idea

sorry sir i don’t believe i said that
i believe i said i oppose returning the land to native groups with a completely hands-off approach because it would most likely lead to a right-wing uprising within the country, which would ultimately strip said native groups of their newly held rights anyway
You think Native groups are incapable of forestalling a right-wing takeover? Fucking yikes!
“OnLy WhItE pEoPlE uNdErStAnD tHiNgS”
Racist
after centuries of being oppressed by the ruling class? yes, sir. i do, sir.
i think anybody would be incapable of holding together a nation like the usa after that kind of treatment, sir
So that brings us back to my post. A nation that is objectively worse than Nazi Germany should collapse for the sake of the greater good.
but that would lead to a nation closer to nazi germany than where it sits currently, which i feel like everybody would agree is a bad thing
What do you think is the most likely outcome of the fall of the US?
We’re set to collapse regardless, because our sitting president refuses to stop committing genocide and border fascism, so it doesn’t really matter whether we like it or not, now does it? America is dying.
Personally, I think that’s best. Death to America.
i feel like you’re looping the conversation back to where it started, sir
naturally, i wouldn’t ever accuse you of doing such a thing, because it would be a slight on your character
A slight on my character to express support for what I originally supported in my post? Are you a bot? lol
Also, I don’t like being referred to as “sir”
sorry my columbo roleplay isn’t very good i’ve only watched the youtube clips
you’re going in circles without adding anything new to the discussion
Why would you be cosplaying Columbo? Because of my pfp? That’s absurd. Surely Columbo would use logic instead of anti-indigenous capitalist propaganda.
If we are so fascist, then we are not set to collapse.
