I understand that, but usually that is the mass movement, there are always vanguard cadres pushing everyone further left as much as possible. Mass movements are really fragile and what matters is the parties that can take advantage of them. Usually those parties already exist.
I saw BLM change only very few minds, and many libs who walked the walk have like reversed their lukewarm positions.
Tbh the only way they have destroyed any power so far is the death of USAID, but they'll probably make an alternate organization to fill its purpose.
I think the impact of some liberals being radicalized to the left is much smaller than the ones being radicalized to the right. Liberals inherently co-opt movements whenever they enter them, so I actually despise their participation when they still are libs.
some will, and we need all the comrades we can get. I'm just saying that the right wing is still winning, the vast majority of america is moving further right. It takes powerful socialist orgs to push people further left, which we dont have. Not saying to give up, quite the opposite, im just trying to have a balanced assessment of the current situation.
that just sounds like their version of democrat cope tbh, "we lost because of the radical left not conforming to our positions" like lmao people are gonna critique socdems
I have little hope, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try our best.
He already has been. He’s already cut off Ukraine aid in many ways, is withdrawing troops from Syria and just blurted out to the world his intention for genocide, alienating key US Allies in the region. What do you mean he was never going to be anti-war due to incompetence? He already has been.
This is ignoring the fact that he is fucking around in ukraine in order to get total capitulation to the USA, so they can grab as much as they can because they know they can't win. Both the Biden and Trump administration knew they could not win, but they both want to be encouraging the war effort as much as possible and as long as possible. Both to decrease the capability of Russia and increase the dependance of Europe on the US. China's rise is inevitable so they're taking what they can before taking new steps to increase their hold on the vassals.
Alienation of allies matters little when theres absolutely nothing they can do to fight back, they'll turn around and bitch about russia before they do anything more than performative resistance. The US is just flexing the muscles it already had.
In his first term he made diplomatic breakthroughs with DPRK and ended the Obama era soft power programs polluting the minds of Cubans.
And he escalated the war in Syria, sponsored the Saudi genocide of Yemen, put Cuba back on the "sponsors of terrorism" list, did quite a huge amount of damage to venezuela, lobbied for the increased size of NATO, killed millions of working class people all over the world due to his handling of covid (with barely any repercussions), supported the Hong Kong protests, started the Uyghur genocide myth, withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal and started sanctioning Iran harshly in order to help kill off Israel's enemy, literally was the guy who moved the embassy to Jerusalem, double down on support of oil and gas, and thats just off the top of my head.
I'm not saying he is specifically evil, im saying he is just basically a logical continuation. Trump can be seen as an 'idiot' but its hard to be an idiot when you can attempt at whatever you want if you have the pure fucking insane capital power the US has. China is strong, but the US is still on top at this moment. The US is a buffoon and will definitely not be able to compete in a couple of years, but right now they are still on top. Do not make the mistake of underestimating capitalism, it will kill us and delude everyone into thinking it is fine.
this is classic liberal cowardice, like how the 'migrant detention facilities' are now seen temporarily as the concentration camps they are. As soon as a blue is elected, or they want to go to war, itll go right back to ignoring it like they want to. fucking brunchers.
lmao liberals just becoming more fucking fascist over time
its inevitable
