leftist infighting (lemmynsfw.com)

(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

Strawman meme.

In reality you can agree with someone on a topic but disagree on the execution, and you’ll get called a fascist along with a bunch of personal attacks on your intelligence. Trump has infected everyone, even the left who now have become toxic as well. No ally is good enough, no leftist is leftist enough, and anyone even slightly to the right or even left of you is a “fascist”. This is very much an American problem, and I guess it makes sense how it happened, and they can’t see it from the inside, like us outside of the u.s can

this is why so many people had an issue with the Democrat party platform of "let's sacrifice Palestine"

it feels hypocritical to post about infighting while inciting arguments and heated discussion, and not offer any solutions.

The solution is to stop letting perfect be the enemy of good.

You have a strange definition of perfection.

And and even stranger definition of "the good" tbh.

The entire concept of “accelerationism” is complete nonsense. First of all, none of the people advocating for it are willing to say, “Yes, I am perfectly happy to become homeless and starve to death in order to foment the revolution.”

And what are people gonna do? Take up arms? We’re just gonna wait until everyone is starving but armed with an AR-15 and then hope the state doesn’t crush us with nukes? It’s highly privileged absurdist faux revolutionary nonsense.
