You know the take is factually correct but you still dismiss it because you want treats for yourself and you are willing to compromise on US imperialism for it.

Nah, I agree with the take. I disagree that fighting in the comment section against people who are more aware than the average us citizen is going to produce the results you want.

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 month ago

You are literally fighting against people who are calling out US imperialism.

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

lol I’m not fighting, I’m having a discussion.

You’ve taken the position that anything except shouting about revolution is simping for the US. There’s no middle ground for talking with you apparently.

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 month ago

Wait, so being in favor of imperialism is taking a position, but being against imperialism is fighting people?

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

I didn’t say I’m in favor of imperialism.

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

You're just against people who oppose imperialism.

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

A handful of Lemmings is all people who oppose imperialism now?

Ok.

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago

Looks like it. And the second they speak against it you throw a hissy fit.

How is that, in any way, edgy?

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

It's easy internet points on Lemmy to do this song and dance of punching down on US citizens for seemingly not doing anything to fight the current administration.

There's a lot of ways to do so that get ignored in threads like these.

punching down on US citizens

Are you fucking trolling?

[-] SocialistVibes01@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

not doing anything to fight the current administration.

This administration is just a symptom of a more insidious evil in the system... Called Capitalism. Reds and Blues are the same thing.

It's not just the current administration; it's every administration.

If you seriously support having a Revolution in the US then reading Theory is not optional, there are errors upon errors upon errors that people inevitably fall into if they do not have a correct understanding of the world, it's history, and how society, economy, the state, Capitalism and so on actually work, which kills a Revolution and result in horrible failure. Cowbee (I think, or maybe it was yogthot or how ever the name is spelt) has a good beginners reading list you can work through, at the least you should read works by Marx, Engels, and Lenin at a minimum.

Revolution, or invasion, is the only solution for the US. People outside don't believe in people inside's willingness to make the former happen. The latter is the retribution waiting to blow in their faces.
