I have become attrached to the idea of using a totally marxist set up for my writing.

I'm going to interpret poorly educated as badly educated as opposed to just not.

Imo the best sign of someone who has been brought up wrong is a total inability to tell the difference between what is legal and what is moral. Don't smoke weed because its illegal. Those homeless people shouldn't have slept outside if they didn't want to be arrested. Nazis should be allowed to march in the ghetto. I've heard all of those from people that have been raised wrong. They don't have any capacity for care, and they're basically just robots fullfilling whatever function they've been told is expected of them. Their hobby is watching tv. They have a wife that they never talk to.

I for one support this

Rofl. I'm so glad that these rich people get to suffocate. They each paid 200000 to board that coffin!

I followed his advice and found somewhere else...

Maybe those are problems with the ideology, but its not with the people who believe it. I've met a lot of people who have very incoherent beliefs. Nobody bullied them and so they absorbed the sane beliefs of the group.

I really just don't think exclusion or hostility are useful unless people are dangerous. A Nazi makes Jewish and gay members of a group scared. A tankie really doesn't because 90% of the time they're gay or trans.

Then I haven't even gotten to how a lot of people join extremist ideologies because they are lonely and need friends. So when you combine that with how small scale local activism is, kicking safe useful people out of a group is just abusing the socially inept.

I've created no authoritarian regimes by giving food to homeless people. It was basically just unpaid charity work covered in red paint.

People's ideas are fluid anyway. I made a lot of leftists into tankies by just being nice and tolerant. I've seen tankies become anarchists because they're surrounded by them. I never succeeded at anything, and neither did they sadly. I wish they had. It was really nice helping eachother. I've never had so many friends. We should all become activists because it gives us so many friends.

It was really nice and I wish more people were like that online. In real life that's how it is.

Because they want to bully someone, and tankies are acceptable. It's not any different from the tankies that kick people out of their book clubs for not worshipping a dictator from a country they've never even been in.

People only argue on the internet because they want to scream at someone - anyone.

I refuse to argue politics with people. It's better to ask a tankie "will you help me with my project?" They'll either say yes or reveal that they're a bully too.

I remember once building a nice charity program that would make meals for homeless people. I had deluded myself into thinking I was building some kind of revolution or whatever.

I had a book club where we all read theory, and it basically was just a tacked on addition to the food charity.

It was really stupid, but it also broke my heart when a guy deliberately sabotaged it because I was a tankie. It was set up in a very level way where we all basically took turns being the coordinator. He intentionally did nothing and told everyone that each role for that week (driver, cook, etc) was filled. Then when the day for distribution came he laughed about how it wasn't going to happen.

I had to buy like 10 pizzas that day, and I remember not having internet because those pizzas were my bill money. The group kept functioning for a while until it fizzled out, but not because of him.

Most people of all political leanings were willing to help me with my stupid idea, but not that guy. I think about that a lot.

He doesn't belive it. He was mad that she might win. He pretended to believe it and then used the magic words that justify is Karen behavior. This is how all conservatives are, in all social situations. Yes, even your grandpa 👴

I've been bothered by Communists before. At least in real life they help homeless people and trans kids. It's at least better than being mass shooters like Nazis.

There have been a lot of situations where I've had communists helping me with my social work giving out narcan to addicts. I never turn down their help and they're less preachy than the Christians, which I also let help me.

At least there haven't been any Lenin brigades where they paste the full content of the Communist Manifesto in every thread. Then I'd have a problem with them lol.

It is refreshing to have a place like this existing.
