True. Pretty fucking pathetic

The CIA supporting a fascist coup against a socialist president? Never heard that one before.

The only hope I really have is that it wakes a lot of people up to just how insidious the Dems are too. But knowing our media, it’ll be spun that Obama did it because he was just so afraid of a Trump Presidency and he will just continue to be a Reagan-like figure for the party

You could also actually do something to stop the murder of Palestinians

Agreed. That’s why I highly doubt an actual resolution comes any time soon. But you are correct, the Zionist project is continued colonialist expansion

I hope so. But I’m sure there’s no resolution the U.S. or Israel agree to that doesn’t involve some kind of two-state solution. So it really won’t end I don’t think. Unless the U.S. cuts funding but that won’t happen

That’s why you are dismissed as evil or childish if you even suggest communism. It’s “common sense” that Communism killed 100 million people and no further analysis is needed. That alone presents a huge challenge in opening people’s eyes

Is this the beginning of a clear attitude shift towards China in the imperial core? Obviously westerners are trained to hate China but historically that’s been used to demonize communism and stoke chauvinism.

But there hasn’t been an attempt at manufacture consent for mounted antagonism against China yet. Maybe the imperialists are starting to think Chinese socialism is a threat after all

And I don’t obfuscate that I’m a communist. I’ll tell people that. Maybe not right away, but definitely at some point in the conversation. The reason I do that is because I want to show people that my values aren’t just “big government, no food”

I feel like it all the time honestly. One thing that has helped me at least have productive conversations is to ask people “why do you feel that way about Palestinians” or “why wouldn’t you travel to China?”

Then that opens the door a little bit more. Unfortunately, people get very offended when you approach it from “you’re wrong and here’s why” instead of “why do you feel that way?”

Liberals are so trained to spew out all this “both sides” garbage that they legitimize a genocidal ideology while offering the most half-hearted “moment of silence” type support for the victims of said genocide.

Fascists are always enabled by liberals. Always.

I know it’s a meme, but I really don’t miss it. I was trapped in a mindset of racism, chauvinism, selfishness and just general stupidity.

Does it suck realizing just how fucked up the entire system is? Most definitely. But it sure beats ignorance. And the fact that we have literal actionable steps to bring about change is a cure to the doomerism that so many are succumbing to.
