There's a difference between saying "I support the protesters no matter what" and "I want violence."
The idea that if violence enters the protests, then the protesters are the cause and deserve whatever happens to them—that's the frame of the fascists who intend violence regardless. Reject it.

And doing it ourselves, in your eyes, is calling our Congress person?

Watergate ain't shit compared to the current and open illegality of the trump administration. But also the NYT has been a conservative rag forever, so it's not a surprise that they run stories in a chickenshit way.

Yeah, I'm wrong for that one.
But also most people happy to have voted for Biden or Harris are also racist.
Taking glee in the trump administration fucking around and having the people, and not the ruling class, have to find out, has always struck me as definitionally counterproductive.

This response ignores the underlying point. I understand that there are other countries, and I don't know you at all. The topic at hand is about the US and voting for trump.

Not every person who voted for trump is a racist.
If you believe people can't change, what is your plan for those people when you gain power.
Things are not black and white, when you claim they are you are using harmful rhetoric as well.
Kinda like the original thing I was responding to.

If you want to other everyone who didn't vote like you, you are going to have a hard time creating any community. If voting is your only level of political engagement, you aren't much different from those truckers for trump you so gleefully hope are having a bad time.

Yeah, let's focus on those people, voting against their own concerns getting what they "deserve". As though they aren't also workera and there is a huge media apparatus that the ruling class uses to obfuscate their problems and teach them to also not form solidarity with their fellow workers.

I also voted for them. But I understand that it is the politicians responsibility to present something worth voting for. They didn't and lost.

I don't know why I waste time talking to liberals about our shared material reality. Blue maga.

Even though she couldn't win a single state in the 2016 primary and even though Biden and his genocidal admin were unpopular.
The voters had no say in the process. libs are still focusing on the voters to blame for trump. Dem leadership is responsible and not saying so is classist at minimum.

The Dems knew he was unfit. They chose not to run a primary because it allows them to select the candidate instead of the people. There is a populus surge because year over year the oligarchs are allowed to steal more and more from the working class. Those in power forces Kamala down our throats. /2

And the Dems couldn't find someone to beat Trump. They didn't run a primary so that the people could decide. The elites chose for us and they lost because they chose poorly.

Imagine expecting politicians to do the bare minimum, earn people's votes by representing their citizens.

She didn't win, against Hitler.2 so not very electable.
Stop the cope

Don't blame the powerless for the fact that those in power didn't give us an electable candidate. They didn't even run a primary while it was obvious that Biden wouldnt have been able to run for a second term. The Dems in power are why there was a fever for a different candidate.

It's great that our system gave us 2 options and neither of those options came without genocide. That super qualified candidate and the previous administration she was apart of did plenty of vilifing immigrants and the pro Palestine movement and paved the way for trump to escalate things.

Well you look at the material conditions of the working class and measure which areas are better and which areas only seem better due to imperialism and mass violence holding the system together.

Not right. Because moving towards feudalism does not help progress society beyond the current situation.
We want to move towards a better way of organizing society. And capitalism is definitely not the best way to do so, due to a number of hangups with individualism>community.

Why blame the people when the politicians had the power to speak to them and chose to shun them?
