I can. I gave proof, higher rates of hate crimes is bad, and Bush obviously got the US involved in Iraq. US foreign policy is extremely Imperialist, yes, but the dems feign social progressivism while the reps include hatred of minorities as a part of their platform.

you only gave statistics on what the fascist government classes as illegal violence.

You're genuinely a fed, you've read no theory and are incapable of materialist analysis. You aren't a leftist, you're stirring the pot. You're a reactionary at best.

You aren’t a leftist

if being a leftist means voting for the author of the crime bill, the author of the patriot act, someone who voted for every war he could, and the person who is building trump's wall and still caging kids, then, no i'm not a leftist. but being a leftist doesn't mean those things at all.

Being a leftist is about supporting the movement towards worker ownership of the Means of production, not accelerating fascism by allowing a fascist into office. You're a fed, read theory.

Yep, you'll be voting for Trump and putting a fascist in office on purpose, because virtue signaling is more important to you than helping the Proletariat.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

no, i'll be voting for a leftist.

Trump isn't a leftist, though. He's a fascist.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

right. i'm considering cornel west and jill stein.

no, neither of those are trump or anything like him.

They don't exist, though. Spoiling your vote by writing a candidate that doesn't exist in is a vote for reactionary forces, just so you can virtue signal.

Read theory and do some materialist analysis. You'll have to touch grass to make meaningful change, regardless of your LARP.

They don’t exist, though.

they do. this is election misinformation.
