Either there will be a socialist president in 2028 or democracy will be dissolved by 2036.

name a more iconic duo than libertarians and clinging to a dead ideology

I think you misunderstood my comment, we’re talking about a draft, not voluntary enlistment. Fuck anyone who does voluntarily enlist though, supporting US imperialism and doing the bidding of the elite epstein-loving pedophilic ruling class is never justified, no matter how deprived or desperate your background, someone has it worse than you and isn’t making immoral choices.

Ah yes, “mistake”, mmhm. I believe it.

Is it? Honestly I think it’s just astroturfed. The entire imperial core suddenly got obsessed with regulating the internet after young people started waking up to the realities of the genocide in gaza.

Thin end of the wedge. Authoritarianism and fascism comes little by little.

Basically, it’ll become a crime to sell a computer with a pre-installed operating system unless it supports an age assurance system.

Sounds like a draft is being planned for the occupation of Iran, aka Vietnam v.4

I doubt it, or at least, I hope you’re wrong. This would go down like a lead balloon if they did it. The war is super unpopular in the US, probably super, suuuper unpopular among military age young men… who are, broadly speaking, either far left, or anti-semitic… like, a draft is a potential mass unrest inducing event. surely they won’t do it

I don’t want you to get killed or harmed in any way, we disagree on this issue but we have a lot more in common, I would gladly fight fascists side by side with you.

I’m genuinely interested in your perspective on my question

I’m confused. I didn’t vote for genocide, and you did, and to you, that means I support genocide? Does that mean you also support genocide?

I have a genuine, good faith question for you - if the Democratic candidate ran on a platform of torturing and killing you, specifically TrickDacy, and the Republican candidate ran on a platform of torturing and killing you, and also burning more fossil fuels, would you still vote for the Democratic candidate on the basis of harm reduction?

Yes, you’re right. True leftists always support genocide.

We don’t literally believe that Kamala Harris shares 99% of her policies with Hitler, that isn’t the argument. You see, it’s an analogy, to try and explain a complex idea in more of a readily understood way.

I did not vote for a genocide, and presumably, you did. If any of us did this, you bear much more weight than I do. You got at least some of what you voted for. I did not.

Jan 6 came dangerously close to succeeding and was the most disorganized mess of incompetent morons imaginable. Get half a dozen transgender hackers in charge of communications and a few hundred antifa supersoldiers to the capitol, they will do the needful.

I’m still not American, and you’re still wrong. Voting for 99% Hitler is still an evil act, even in a two party system where the other candidate is 100% Hitler. At that point your only principled position is to take action outside of the two-party system, by voting third party - and/or, even better - beyond electoralism altogether.

Human history is filled with changes which would have seemed impossible to people living in the world prior to those changes.

We had regulated capitalism in the past, and now we’re here. There’s no reason to think regulation would work next time around. We need to be bold, outspoken, and uncompromising. The future is ours for the taking. We just need to organize.

Yeah why blame a handful of politicians for being genocidal, when you can blame thousands of voters for not voting for genocide? It just makes sense.

Democrats are still so fucking unbelievably cucked that criticising a genocidal war criminal still gets you downvotes because he’s OUR genocidal war criminal.

This but unironically

You need to abolish capitalism if you want to get money out of politics. There is no way that you can have a system where people can hoard wealth and also have fair elections. Lobbying is legal now, but making it illegal would just drive it underground. The reward for cheating is basically infinite (control of the state) so it basically can’t be regulated away.
