I organize a self defense group. I organize community run political education. I organize mutual aid. You’re defending liberals and complaining about how we (Communists and Anarchists) don’t touch enough grass. One of the most online anti-grass touching groups of people are liberals. 99% of who don’t do any form of political organizing whatsoever. The most that they do is, once every four years, go to their local school gym to drop off a piece of paper and get a sticker. And then they have the gall to call that political engagement. And then, the 1% of liberal outliers who do anything at all only go out to try to get more people to get their sticker. Newsflash, voting for your favorite capitalist appointed trans hating genicidaire isn’t a form of meaningful political engagement. If you’re a liberal from the US reading this then just know you’re pro pedophilia. Your ideological framework and your politics mean that you’re materially anti-trans, anti-black, anti-brown, anti-woman, pro settler-colonialism both domestically and abroad, pro imperialist, and against the people of the global periphery gaining economic and political sovereignty. You’re no different than the MAGA fascists you proclaim to hate. You’re all this just so you can lick the crumbs from beneath the polished boots of your capitalist overlords, playing your part as a member of the global labor aristocracy. You’re materially a fascist hiding behind the most transparently thin veneer of false innocence while the vast majority of the population of the world looks at you and sees you for exactly what you are. A bug. Like some rendition of Kafka, you are someone who through their own beliefs and actions of dehumanizing the majority of the people of the world, have dehumanized yourself to the point of being a cockroach. But unlike the metamorphosis, you’ve chosen to live your life in denial of who you are, what you believe, and what you do. You’re a coward.

I really don’t wanna stir the pot, but as a non-us left-leaner, what if I just don’t want the fascists under trump to keep extending their power? I understand that no matter who leads the empire, the empire will do empire things to the rest of the world, but my and everyone’s life has drastically worsened since Trump, whereas Dems usually maintain the shiftiness but don’t usually throw the table out the window. I don’t agree with a ton of shit the Democrats say, but I’d much rather the empire pick them over Trump. I’m also under the impression that the rise and empowerment of the trump regime has further empowered and emboldened the far right across the globe, with very similar people propping up in other countries where such behaviors and political positions would’ve been ridiculed not too long ago. Perhaps it is naive of me to argue for a lesser evil, but that’s all their system allows and they refuse to do anything about it? Are we just stuck with the current US empire until it collapses on its own weight? I’m genuinely asking, btw. I’ll also acknowledge the impact of US propaganda in literally every aspect of my life since childhood, so please bear that in mind when replying, we didn’t choose to be targeted by it but we were still, and a ton of people I know have only recently started vocalizing the same concerns the ML community has been voicing for years to decades. I know it took Trump 2.0 for me to finally see the facade of the whole thing, whereas before I’d probably describe myself as more dem-adjacent. “System needs fixing” vs “system working as designed” kind of development, but we’re still living within these systems and it’s really hard to see the way out. I’d also love a comment from you on this, Dessalines, if you happen to read this. A lot of us are here to discuss, but also to learn.
