I guess this means you don't know what a "progressive" is, huh?

[-] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 2 months ago

So that's your idea of a "progressive," huh? Two plutocratic racketeers in over-priced suits?

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

I grew up in a country that insisted these two guys were somewhere to the left of Fidel Castro.

Show me what a True Progressive American Politician looks like, please.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 2 months ago

Sooooo... you don't know who Bernie Sanders is? That's a "progressive" - or, more accurately, an edgy liberal.

I'm going to go ahead and assume that even here, on a (supposedly) anarchist community, I will still have to waste my energy explaining to liberals how their own ideology actually works?

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

Sooooo… you don’t know who Bernie Sanders is?

He's the guy who spent twelve years stumping for Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris, right?

waste my energy explaining to liberals how their own ideology actually works?

Does liberal ideology work? Seems like its in full collapse at the moment.

Yeah... you know that thing "progressives" were doing right up to the election?

Does liberal ideology work?

You'll know when it stops working - you'll see liberals roll out the red carpet for fascists while pretending they cannot do anything to stop them. Do you see anything like that happening now, perhaps?

Buddy, lol you can put your guard down. The person you are replying to is not arguing in favor of liberalism, they are being facetious and that picture was posted in jest.

Instead of a politician, what about a civil revolutionary?

Martin Luther King Jr. was a leftist.

[-] andybytes@programming.dev 8 points 2 months ago

He was a socialist, not an American leftist. He was a goddamn dirty commie that the FBI tried to get him to commit suicide. And libturds like to whitewash's ass. Martin Luther King was killed by the FBI. Then he was paraded around as a mascot for neoliberalism and the libturds. The Empire made him a mascot and gave him a holiday. In Empire, you have many holidays, gladiator games, and idols to worship.

Socialism falls under leftism.

Ah, the United States (ca. 2016)

Your post makes me think you somehow believed them...

[-] andybytes@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

Oh snap.hahahah

[-] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 months ago

Let me be clear, we're occupying Afghanistan, but we're going to be doing it the right way this time.

Progressives are Neoliberal 2.0. In the corporate sector, this is called getting ahead of the problem. co-op the left before the left can even learn to walk again. There are billionaires on both sides supporting this pseudo world aka left and Right paradigm. We are all just watching Shadows dance on the walls. We are not going to vote our way out of these bigger problems. And if you keep it real and you see how the sausage is made, you can pretty much predict how this is all eventually gonna go. The Ratchet effect. We move further and further to the right. And clearly this has something to do with fiscal realities and the suffering of the working class. Like guns aren't the problem. The problem is fiscal. And those fiscal problems lead to interpersonal issues. The guns don't help though. We don't like to deal with the root causes because it questions the very nature of our existence. Ultimately, I am victorious because we will destroy ourselves. We are literally in the process of destroying all life on Earth. It's kind of awesome being right about everything. Unfortunately, I am mortal and I suffer just like all the other slobs.

Really? Do tell... which billionaire parasites are (supposedly) funding the left?

That just tells me you've never been right about anything.

I think they're confusing "progressive" with "Performative Discord Leftists Who want to have intellectual arguments but are afraid of real conservatives so they just infight and purity test all day" or "Lemmy users"

[-] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

real conservatives

The last one im aware of died in 2013. He was almost 90, and would probably be an anarchist in modern context. He seemed like he was moving that way.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

but are afraid of real conservatives

Why should they be afraid of something that hasn't existed since the end of WW2?

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.
