You dunk on Lindsey whateverhernameis for tweeting bad things about leftists fomenting violent insurrection, but hopeful Balkanization and US collapse posts are downbeared. Are you just larping? Either the bourgeois state can be ended without violence or it cannot. I’m not here for enlightened centrism, folks.

You’re right. I wish I were a true socialist like you. Go out and set the example by being shot in the stomach to defend a Walmart from Mormons because your county drafted you into a militia, but of course the people you’re being shot for don’t think you deserve treatment for that bullet without a six figure debt you’ll be working off with a colostomy bag. Maybe you’ll be one of the drone videos in /r/combatfootage as those drones fall into the hands of the federalists, the military factions, or the paramilitary militias they will hand their weapons to. They certainly won’t be handing them out to socialists and whatever your armament- I’ve got more or less the standard civilian kit minus body armour so those countless weapons and vehicles the paramilitary forces will have would be an upgrade- you’ll be facing the most powerful military in history and a population that’s North Korea for white people. All for the supremacy of a party that hates you, exactly as the ML party of Syria fell in with the regime to ensure their political minority survival. They’re not going to be adding a hammer and sickle to the flag when the dust settles and if collective desperation turned people into MLs then the entire population of Syria would have been forming a greater Rojava. They aren’t though. They’re split between those who flee, those who try to survive, those who were conscripted by any of the reactionary or local militias, and whose who bomb all of them. Maybe I’m not a principled socialist like you but my lib ass doesn’t consider any of those things a path to socialism.

Shattering the American empire is a good thing, you’re just a coward.

You have the same lame worldview as Chomsky at this point.

edit: To be more clear, the nukes are terrifying but all you’re arguing for is keeping them locked up behind 1 absurdly powerful office that’s being occupied by increasing awful right wing assholes. An office that keeps getting more power centered on it because congress is packed with people who hate the idea of actually doing the job.

Not the good part of North Korea, the part that worships a strongman and would fanatically die to protect their nationalist ideology. Then again they only put a portrait of Kim in their house so maybe they’d find something like a Trump Train to be an insane degree of zealotry.

literally every country has an unhealthy worship of their political leaders.

go ask a brit about churchill.

the korean love of the kim family is def a hell of a lot better, given the reason for it, than the trump fans loving a president who has caused the unecessary deaths of some quarter million citizens. its like comparing a love of gandhi (problematic) to a love of churchill (wtf)
