of course even white westerners here still simp for him after he’s said multiple times how proud he was to help destroy our countries. Fuck the troops all day.
I mean you could have called him out on it by asking him how he squares ACAB with having been part of the pointy end of the imperialist machine but that’d require you to not uselessly moralize on the subject, right? I mean it’s not like you could have also been virtue signaling yourself, because you’re clearly The One True Leftist™
Well it’s not even calling Carter out in his past, it’s literally just moralizing. To me, calling someone out means you expect some type of response from the person you’re calling out, and OP clearly didn’t.
Not to defend soldiers, but you’re just “virtue signaling” too lmao
No one in the global south cares if you’ve pretended to read Settlers.
If you’re calling Lee Carter a chud, you’re so far disconnected from mainstream politics that you’re nowhere close to getting anything done.
If Carter defends the US military in any way, he’s a chud. That’s a certified social democracy is the left wing of fascism moment
“Hey, you know that leftist that spent the past 4 years getting meaningful shit done in Virginia? The one who got a cap on insulin prices? Yeah, that dude was in the marines like 15 years ago and hasn’t screamed ‘Death to yt’ in the past 6 months, so we’re going to cancel him because absolute ideological purity is more important than real life praxis.”
Hexbear is absolutely drowning in people who need to log off Twitter for a few hours and go do something else.
This is some seriously online shit
Holy shit shut the fuck up.
“You shouldnt shit on troops and shouldnt moralize individuals bro, its the MACHINE , something something structual analysis bro , we gotta win em over bro trust me its propaganda’s fault” . . . “Yeah what about cops?, FUCK ALL OF THEM PIECE OF SHIT PIGS BEINGS DESERVE NO SYMPATHY THEY FORFIETED THE RIGHT TO BE TREATED AS HUMANS WHEN THEY BECAME COPS”
I am a very coherent american leftist and these are totally different things cause i say so and cause otherwise i would feel like a hypocrite . Also i can still be friends with that troop friend from highschool without any personal conflict
…the troop friend:
There are massive massive amounts of pro cop propaganda and bias at every cultural and social level of american society. Cop good, cop hero, cop catch bad guys, cop keep safe neighbourhood from goons.Movies, tv, news, politicians, family. Even if its shaken a bit in the last year or so, the cops we ACAB at surely have joined way before. If its excusable to become a troop cause of the propaganda and social and cultural bias and constructed image its similarly excusable to chose to become a cop as well. Never see any leftists keeping this energy for cops tho, why
