We have the same problem in Canada, the overton window slithered towards authoritarianism with the takeover of the ‘Progressive’ Conservatives by the Reform party, and the various provincial centre left NDP parties sometimes get power but each time by slipping into the centre.

cf. Children of Men

Clintons are center-right neoliberals. They in no way represent anything Left, which has no representation in the USA’s federal government. Hell, even Mamdani as a Social Democrat is just Centre-Left.

Again not reading what I wrote FFS! I did not call you uneducated but said you were kneejerking by intentionally missing the point, which looks suspicious, then said you are being anxious, because you were not reading the comment, and making it about you instead of the previous commenter. It’s not an insult.

I didn’t even imply that, so I will now call you anxious.

I was defending people who write well and craft long detailed answers. Read it again.

Really, kneejerk somewhere else, some of us paid attention in school and actually format things properly while using decent grammar. Bonus if you’re an organized thinker. Definitely a touch grass moment, the internet is wearing on you.

To be fair, sure, fuck the yank dominance of topics.

To be clear, though, this is a shitpost about how you can’t escape authoritarianism no matter your creed or country. Buckle up kids.

Yep it’s just memes all the way down…

To material conditions

Authorities gonna roll wherever they be

Different shoes toe the same lines

Poetry used to provide an ‘external’ answer to Gödel, in that regard. Now I am not sure what, we’re stuck with memes I guess.

This is anecdotal. Your viewpoint illustrates that you are not on the frontlines building civil organizations or participating in direct action (which does not necessarily involve sabotage, folks).

Unified monoperspectives are dangerous anyway. Build coalitions and hegemony among various segments of local regions. Read/discuss Gramsci’s prison writings.

Gorrilladrums here looking for a quick fix. Tiktok politics rearing its sleepy head.

Study history. Protests necessary but not a solitary solution.

They will be, but not in an instant gratification manner.

Sociopolitical change requires the long haul.

Anyone expecting some kind of revolution needs to see about 35 million in the streets at once, plus a well developed infrastructure of philosophy, ideals, and civil organizations.

In the meantime, mass dissent is necessary and fertilizes the roots of liberty – cf. history.

Blueberry bushes love it as a mulch.

I rather took the comment as clearly saying ‘if they do it to my privileged demographic, how much worse will it be for the people they visually target?’
