OMG they made real life from the 2019 hit show The boys
Bernie and AOC were not making Communism relevant in 2018 lmao
Lots of Bernie supporters would argue that socialism was when government does stuff. But don’t worry. It’s not like Communism where the government controls everything.
Eh, they got me to not automatically hate socialism. And now I’m on here arguing with internet randoms that Cuba, Vietnam, and the USSR are awesome. It’s a process.
I think this is probably the true legacy of the Bernie movement. I’d wager that anyone radicalized around 2016 and even many around the 2019/2020 period was influenced in some way by Bernie. Even me, who was already becoming radicalized around then for separate reasons, I know I benefited from Bernie making socialism more acceptable. The whole thing also probably pushed me away from lifestyle anarchism and towards a more principled stance that eventually led to Marxism.
I was less influenced by Bernie than I was by the DNC totally shutting him down. That was what taught me that the entire system is unsalvageable and pushed me into learning the real reasons why things are like this.
I haven’t even considered the word ‘radicalized’ in a while. I didn’t feel like heathcare pls, genocide is… le bad!, the dissolution of the US and its middle eastern outpost, war crime trials, trans people are… le good!, unions, trains, cooperating on the fruits of labor, and shit like that was even radical. It’s not like people like the current system or the people in charge in the current year - it seems like the layman likes 8 to 10 out of 12 things that a communist would want and change their mind on 1 or 2 by way of simple exposure.
I had a nice little chuckle at how poorly the original aged, assuming it was years old. But nope, of course this shitlib was gonna swallow the boot and go full nazi when the party did
you have been banned from lw/politics comm
They’re going harder too. Banned one of the only ones still posting articles about it from politics because Biden is not helping the genocide and saying so is misinformation
I just blocked linkerbaan and return2whateverthefuck since they’re both cunts. My feed has been much better ever since. I’m pretty sure they’re both paid trolls. r2wetf admitted to only operating in bad faith at least.
This is the lèast horny I’ve seen AOC drawñ
