They lied that whole entire time. They committed genocide and lied about it, and then they said you were crazy and irresponsible if you didn’t support them.
I’m from rural upstate new york I’m surrounded by the most coddled republicans maybe anywhere on earth.
They get a robust social safety nest funded by the city. They have all their medical expenses covered get decent unemployment for the half the year they don’t work and constantly say we should split into 2 states, the city and everybody else.
When I point out we’d immediately be a landlocked failing state with zero income they call you slurs.
I’ve been called an n word lover for looking unimpressed at the punchline of a joke that was just a slur.
If you point out that 6 months ago you told them this would be the exact outcomes of their proposed solutions which were implemented exactly like they wanted them to be, they call you a slur.
Idk where this revolutionary potential I keep hearing about is, but if you ever bring it up around me the chuds will gleefully murder you in order to preserve the status quo while flying a “don’t tread on me” and a “fuck yourself feelings” flag
Well there’s 2 options to accept here if we accept that society will change at some point revolutionarily: 1. (Less likely) We need to change our strategy to reach those people because they are revolutionary. That’s not someone’s fault or something that anyone deserves to have to deal with, but if we want to progress, we have to find some way to connect.
Or 2. (More likely) Those people aren’t the revolutionary class, and my word “societies” needs to be interpreted more broadly to encompass whoever has the potential to revolutionarily change your society. These people may be physically far away, but we should be using our correct analysis to undergird the strategies we build with them.
I’m not dismissing the racism, sexism, abelism, or any of that, to be clear. I doubt the people expressing that in the 1st world are really part of any revolutionary potential. Or at least won’t be until some more major changes happen.
I really feel like any effort to convince somebody who thinks Trump is doing a great job is better spent building larger networks.
As things continue to get worse I expect they’ll go directly from saying things are good up to a point they’re snapped out of it, at which point they’ll just start murdering their neighbors for frozen meals and toilet paper.

Yea your last point is well made.
