I didn’t ask you to watch it, I presented it for people who are actually curious about the world.

Lmao I’m really glad our enemies are so stupid.
I don’t know, but you’re in charge of propaganda posters now.
I have a hypothesis that people react differently to the cold calculus of Politically Necessary Genocide when it’s their loved ones who are being offered up for sacrifice. But I suppose we’ll see.
I don’t have an answer right now, but I promise that if I ever approach a position of power, I will have a fully-detailed policy paper on the American Question.
I didn’t have my Hitler Particle Detector handy.
The last time I suggested that getting rid of Americans would be a net good, people got really mad for some reason.
[Levar Burton voice] But don’t take my word for it!
Not key agents, the only agents. There is no revolutionary potential in the Global North until the system of global parasitism ends.
I agree. There is no option to reduce harm. Just don’t lie to yourself and everyone else about how your expression of self-interest is actually about helping everyone else.
“We need Harris in office so that it’s easier to organize to help Palestinians!”
The degree of narcissism that it takes to say this self-serving bullshit while a genocide is unfolding exclusively because your precious nation exists…
It’s so funny how Leftists pull out “That contradicts my experience and therefore you are wrong and lying” when men start talking about dating. Instant bootstraps deployal.
The US is the Fourth Reich and the two flavors of politics are Nazi and Nazi in Flower Headband.
People need to understand class interest beyond “worker good, Capitalist bad, workers come together and sing kumbaya really hard until Communism happens.”
If it were that simple, we would be living in Communism right. It’s not that simple. A couple of examples: steel worker union wants the price of steel to be as high as possible so union members are compensated well. Union of… idk, pipe builders want steel to be as cheap as possible for obvious reasons. Despite both groups consisting exclusively of proles, they have contradictory interests.
Another example that’s been highlighted by recent DSA actions: class reproduction. Academic “Marxists” generally lose all radicalism because they’ve secured a position where they can write for a living instead of doing one of the million jobs that no one wants to do. This applies perhaps even more strongly to paid positions within “Socialist” organizations. Why did Maria of the DSA behave with such profound chauvinism on the Cuba trip? Because she sees a path out of working for a living. Everything she did established credibility in the eyes of the people who hire Democratic Party staffers.
And the single most important example in the world today: Americans. A nation ostensibly composed of the working class like any other, yet all but the most vulnerable of its population are so profoundly bribed with the superprofits of the actual global working class that their interests have been thoroughly aligned with the status quo. They constitute a parasitic class on the world stage. Why do the most useless counter-revolutionary tendencies (LeftCommunism, Council Communism, Trotskyism, Neokautskyism) come exclusively from the West? Because the population does not, for the most part, experience revolutionary conditions. They don’t need to do a revolution because they will be fine no matter what.
And this isn’t some wild, new, 21st century theory. No less than Marx, Engels, and Lenin all described the parasitic nature of British “workers” and their attempt to secure well-being on the backs of the global proletariat: “…The English proletariat is actually becoming more and more bourgeois, so that this most bourgeois of all nations is apparently aiming ultimately at the possession of a bourgeois aristocracy and a bourgeois proletariat alongside the bourgeoisie. For a nation which exploits the whole world this is of course to a certain extent justifiable.”
