I got nothing out of this election. I’m an anarchist, kiddo. I would like to see the national republican, Democrat and especially any aspirational Vanguard parties dissolved.

I never really advocated for a candidate either. I simply pointed out repeatedly that we would be getting either a Republican or a Democrat and we would prefer the democrat. I wasn’t wrong. Not that I care about being right. I would have loved to have been wrong. Living under a Harris Administration right now. I would gladly own up to the fact that my concerns about you all amplifying fascist and foreign propaganda. To pull Democrats down and giving the Republicans a path to Victory, was hyperbolic and uninformed. I bet you would have loved that too.

And yet, the wildly one-sided rhetoric you amplified. Not just amplified, but childishly harassed everyone who would point out what was going to happen, and did happen. Literally convinced many Palestinians to vote for the man who told Netanyahu to “finish it”. And for every single one of them that voted for Trump there were multiple that didn’t vote at all. That’s on you and people like yourself. All the more hilarious because you voted for Harris in the end as well. After you spend all that time attacking her and demotivating people from voting for her. You were played for a complete chump. And that sucks.

All acrimony aside. Honestly, I bet you and I agree more than we disagree. We all make mistakes. I dearly wish that Palestine had been one of the issues we had been voting on. It wasn’t, and that’s a tragedy. But the fact that you simply can’t own up to the fact that your sincere wishes for better things for Palestine. Were manipulated and used, along with the Democrats unforced errors. To cut the margins enough for trump to win. That’s the impasse here. You don’t have to acknowledge that anyone was right. Like I said, I’d gladly give up being right to be dissatisfied living under the Harris administration right now. Just acknowledge that you were used, that you’re aware you made a mistake. That going forward you won’t repeat it. If enough people like yourself did that. We might became a force to reckon with instead of a joke.

Didn’t say it was, though your refusal to address it is pointing in that direction.

I literally addressed it in the next paragraph practically what are you even on about.

Because “put in decades of work at the state level while we keep moving right on the national level” is not a realistic solution in the face of rapidly entrenching fascism.

Tell that to the unions that felt Carter hadn’t done enough for them. Withholding their support and funding. They showed carter. He lost and the unions became irrelevant. And we had our first outright fascist in office with reagan. Tell that to all the people so uninfused with Al gore. He didn’t excite them enough he didn’t hold their hands enough despite having fantastic qualifications as a progressive and environmentalist. He just didn’t motivate the people and so we got our second fascist with Bush Jr. I could go on I mean literally what happened with Hillary Clinton yes she wasn’t inspirational no she wasn’t great but by that time so much damage had been done she was the best we could get unfortunately. And people chose Trump. And on and on and on.

We’ve had 50 years of people like yourself ignorantly trying to change things from the top down and failing. Hurting all of us. You spend decades organizing it a state level. You aren’t going to get this sort of s*** at the national level. That’s the point. Yes you have to hold your nose in the meantime. While you’re replacing all the jackasses that are the problem. But that is how you change it. Trying to force top-down change you’re just going to keep empowering fascists. I hope you’re enjoying the administration you helped.

As always, it’s hilarious that you think everyone else is the one ignoring anything. That’s a nice straw man built there and it’s nothing I’ve ever espoused or championed. The simple fact is when it comes to National presidential elections it is unfortunately a binary choice and you do have to choose between fascist and fascist light. That or just accept that you’re going to have fascist. That’s the simple point you always ignore. Why we spend so much time lecturing you. When you just get all pissy about it I don’t know. I guess it’s fun sometimes.

While we must hold our noses and do this for national presidential elections. We’ve never had to and I’ve never advocated for doing that at the local and state level. In fact far from it. I constantly advocate for taking over State parties and building them up. Or building completely new state parties to run people at the state and local level. But that’s what you always ignore.

You don’t have to in state or local elections. I’ve always told people to vote for whoever stands the best chance of winning no matter what party they’re from as long as they keep the fascist out. But when it comes to National presidential elections mathematically you have to. It’s just a fact.

I keep seeing so many people who claim to be on the left saying Democrats could win if they just supported us. Which sounds great. But then one has to wonder. Have we shown them that? We need to be the ones to bring the fight to the democrats. We’ve passively and complacently let National parties consolidate power for Generations now. And yet we pretend to be confused of when they don’t represent us for some reason.

As someone reasonably autistic that has to mask a significant amount to get through the day. I’m not candidate material. But I would I.T. the fuck out of shit for a local campaign willing to show local and National Democrats how to fight.

The question is. If you got to choose between the two. Which would you choose. Democrats are awful, but imagine how nice it would have been for nothing to happen. Ukraine and Palestine not become worse. Our allies not alienated. Roving squads of redcaps not on the street kidnapping innocent people, AND THEN FORCING THE PUBLIC TO PAY FOR THEIR BONDAGE IN A FORIEGN NATION. DENIED JUSTICE. Nothing, man; what a dream.

I thought it was the ark of the covenant.

Thankfully this instance is defederated from hex and grad. So there’s no way I can at this point LOL. Not that anyone really has to try. One only has to act rational around them and point out when they’re behaving irrationally.

The Soviet Union was a state. Therefore not stateless, therefore not communist. The Soviet Union had a separate political class. One that scapegoated, imprisoned, and even slaughtered any proletariat that dared criticize the vanguard party and it’s leaders. Therefore not classes, not communist.

The Soviet Union nominally implemented Communism. But communism and Communism aren’t the same thing. I could name my dog Communism. And my dog would be Communism. But not communism. The soviets cosplayed communism. But never were or will be communist.

The funny thing about that is that Russia was never communist. Though many don’t understand the difference between communism and Communism. The irony being that Communism was basically cosplay of communism. But never actually communism.

Those are all badges of honor. Of which I’ve only achieved one.
