its not whataboutism, Im saying a lake is a pond a pond is a lake. I watched john oliver in high school, but really tho would you have supported the entente in ww1 cuz the axis were "authoritarian"??? I know history, I know this shit is bullshit. I'll talk to you all day about the shortcomings of the USSR, or the PRC, or the DPRK, whatever the fuck, they all have valid criticism, but fuck if america aint some kinda authoritarian state, then idk what

America. This is America. It's the same picture. America does the same thing but in a different fashion. Please at least admit America is authoritiarian. Why not? I'm a principled maoist, but this makes me want to burn down Walmarts

Anarchy in the streets, MLM in the sheets

thats because they want addicts (of any variety, not just drugs) cuz their labor is cheap. its a form of exploitation

same way we expect students in 9th grade to be capable of more complicated tasks once they're in 12th grade. The nature of labor in capitalist countries is to sort out wheat from chaffe. "Good" workers become managers (although this is theoretical, ive had plenty of shitty managers), leaving the "bad" workers down at the bottom. This how the economy works right now, but it doesnt always have to. For example, unions sometimes have a probation period where you work as a temp, then join the union after a month or two. This gives you time to learn the job, before you have a say in how things are organized.

I have more thoughts, but im working rn 😝

if you dont raise your children to be adults, they won't act like adults when they grow up. A revolution would mean people learning entirely new skills, like making decisions in the workplace. Most workers have no agency, theyre treated like machines, so I dont expect people raised in that society to know how to run a completely different one from scratch. Revolution is a process, it has to be built. Keep shitting on your coworkers tho, im sure its a productive activity

All governments are authoritiarian. They have the authority to tax you and can do that cuz they have a monopoly on violence. But if you have "HUMAN RIGHTS" written on a piece of paper in your capital building that basically makes you a democracy, right?

im drunk again

yall 196 reactionaries never been

as fuckin high as me

I will only play dnd anymore if I can play goblin.

Butler was also blew the whistle on the plot, he was a Red. I guess they were hoping for a Mussolini type situation, but for America. But Butler was a friend of the working class

you: a pleblian

me: a proletarian

I'd recommend "Socialism: Utopian and Scientific". There's a wealth of history behind people trying to set up the ideal society only to have it collapse after it runs its course. There isn't a universal blueprint for society free of exploitation, instead I think every group of exploited people has there own path to liberation.

weed is actually the most serious drug

I also do drugs, but I have an entirely different set of conspiracy theories about christian church (fwiw i was raised :catholic:)

bitch, im drunk af again,
