Since this is at the top of active, take notes on how the alt-right radicalizes casuals. We could stand to learn a thing or two on how they reached casual right-wingers to help us with radicalizing liberals. :P
Mutual Aid is good, folks.
Is sure is! !mutual_aid is looking pretty barren, so instead of doomer posting we could start helping others there! :)
“WAHHHHH I KNOW THAT CLIMATE CHANGE IS GOING TO EXPONENTIALLY INCREASE HUMAN SUFFERING AND THAT FASCISM IS REALLY TAKING CONTROL OF OUR SOCIETY BUT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT REQUIRES SO MUCH EFFORT SO FUCK YOU AND FUCK THEM.”
Imagine accepting defeat this hard instead fighting for the society we all discuss here. We’re leftists because we want to help and provide for people, not sit by idly watching them fucking suffer. Like, if you’re just going to sit there in a puddle of your own tears negatively critiquing the efforts of others, you’re probably a liberal, y’know?
I don’t think communism is necessarily evitable, but I also think that it’s equally not inevitable that capitalism will just continue on or maybe morph into neo-feudalism. Nothing has predetermined. Anything is possible.
Anyone’s whose solution involves buying a gun is already a doomer.
Being prepared for the worst case scenario can’t hurt. Never said it was a solution to our current issues, but it’s something we should all do to prepare for the inevitable societal collapse in case we see it in our lifetime. :)
Being a doomer is accepting it and not trying to improve the material conditions of others in the meantime. It’s the “we’re all fucked and there is no point in trying if society will just collapse in on itself anyway” attitude that makes someone a doomer, not being prepared for that inevitable societal collapse. We all have a moral imperative to reduce suffering where possible and recognizing that it will collapse and fuck a LOT of people in the process isn’t inherently doomer. Our actions are what separate the doomers from the bloomers. Roll over or fight back.
Show me on the doll where it hurts you that I have motivation and the attitude to push for change and help others instead of rolling over and accepting defeat. :P
It may not solve the looming extinction event but it will reduce suffering in the short-term and that’s better than nothing.
