It is always important to remember that the American left is AOC, not randos online. That said, the randos online have so far predictably proven themselves predictably useless in opposing an actual hyperacceleration of imperialist activity by their government

So far the libs have just declared their friendship with the left is over and that's it.
You guys have lost America and that clown show is gonna be hurting ppl globally.
This shit is cope.
But.. so have you? I don't get it. Nothing you do works. The same problems have been bubbling for over a century.
What are we all fuckin doing here?
Wait. You just tried to dunk instead. Please don't do that, it doesn't actually help or make you feel better in the long-term.
I think the work that @altnps.bsky.social and AOC are doing is the closest to leadership I'm seeing at the moment.
It really is me asking folks to share resources and build a real opposition. I hope I wasn't too sarcastic.
"Let's march about it!"
The American Right:
"Cute. Anyway, Fascism amiright?"
The Left:
"Well, we tried."

Corruption doesn't care about marching. Actions speak louder. Actual French Revolution type actions. Only then will they see.
But yeah I don't fucking understand how "unilateral opposition to invading Canada and understanding why Canadians might be a bit upset actually" isn't. Just obvious

The state needs to be replaced by horizontal organization. Not Elon ripping out wires and Trump pitching conquests like its shark tank. This will only hurt ppl
Everyone seems to forget she signed off on multiple arms sales to Israel, including ones with white phosphorus.
She is just as bad as the rest. Doing nothing but paving the road to fascism.
Idk why big lefty accounts don't simply do this.
I have more sympathetic responses, depending on who I'm talking about, but some of these folks have over a million followers, are monetized and are backseat driving. Or are out of the car complaining
