    Do I get to be a socialist?

    • 20| Would you rather live in the America imagined by the 1912 Socialist Party than the America of 1912?

    we agree on some things, but i would totally prefer to live in 1912 america under socialists than what it actually was.

    the 1912 socialist party platform was:

    • eight hour workday

    • abolition of child labor

    • direct election of senators

    • women’s suffrage

    • unemployment insurance

    • old age pensions

    these are like the bare minimum and wouldn’t even partially arrive for decades later in reality.

    the actual America of 1912 was more like jim crow, 16 hour workdays, children in mines, no labor protections whatsoever.

    why are you taking it so personally when I say “fuck those bots”?

    a significant portion of the .ml user base are either russian trolls, or russian-sympathizing trolls. I wasn’t “wishing anyone who disagrees with me would get drone-striked.” I was saying “I hope these drone-strikes targeting troll-farming datacenters take a noticable portion of troll accounts offline.”

    Your usage appears interchangeable.

    I find the speed with which you jump to dehumanization interesting











  • western fascism has plenty of indigneous roots, the amount that russia spends is a drop in the bucket. it is a convenient way for you to avoid examining how capitalism produces fascism domestically. everything can just get blamed on your state adversary and anyone pushing back must clearly just be under foreign influence

    the only people left in this thread seem to be you and your brigade of .mls anyway, so I see little point in continuing to try reasoning with you.

    god forbid we use the website we’re on, clearly anything opposed to you must be coordinated foreigners

    then you’re not engaging in good faith.

    you weren’t engaging in good faith from the start, you literally were calling all of us russian bots and hoping our ‘datacenter’ gets drone striked.

    So no, I see right through that BS dissembling as it’s patently transparent.

    you are just defending your preferred type of authoritarian regime and cannot comprehend when people supporting the lesser evil in a fucked up situation end up opposing you.

    the original point that guy made wasn’t pro-russia, it was anti-unipolar dominance. it’s not even an uncommon anti-imperialist position and has nothing to do with defending whatever ‘the kremlin’ does.

    you then jumped to calling him a russian for saying that ‘western democracy’ is a bourgeois dictatorship evolving into open fascism.

    so in defense of your preferred hegemon you jump to dehumanizing him. you already have been by calling everyone on my server bots and making veiled wishes for users to get drone struck. you really seem incapable of self-reflection. certainly not beating the allegations about where ‘western democracy’ is headed with defenders like you.

    i was just noting how quickly you jump to dehumanizing your political opponents

    it was direct evidence for my original point

    And since you’re trying so hard to defend that, I can only assume you’re the same.

    you seem to be looking for any excuse to dehumanize me, just an observation.

    how convenient, feel free to edit your previous comment.

    Expecting me to do it for you is exactly the kind of petty wannabe authoritarian bullshit I would expect from your instance

    you seemed so offended by me, i am just trying to spare you the aggravation

    And as you continue to frame my criticism of russia as simply “blaming foreigners

    such nuanced criticism:
