Fuck Joe Biden and team for watching the devolution to fascism happening in real time and deciding to spend their time doing genocide instead of stopping fascism.

For those that are confused, the above comment is an excellent example of propaganda

Is it inaccurate to say Biden/Garland slow rolled arresting Trump?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Propaganda doesn't have to be inaccurate to be propaganda.

All it needs to do is fulfill an ulterior intent

The old Uncle Sam 'I want you' posters weren't even factual claims but they certainly were propaganda that led to many people signing up that would have otherwise lived.

So facts are propaganda now. Got it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Actually yes. Something can be both true and shown in a biased or misleading way.

ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause

Propaganda doesn’t have to be inaccurate to be propaganda.

It just has to disagree with your worldview.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Incorrect, there's plenty of propaganda that agrees with my worldview, and that's the most insidious and most important to be vigilant against.

Why are you putting words into my mouth? Scared of a conversation?

Why are you putting words into my mouth?

I'm not. I'm outright saying that you dismiss anything that disagrees with you as propaganda.

And fuck all the accelerationists who, instead of telling people to vote for Harris anyway, shouted her sins from the rooftops down at the voters.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

What is this cacophonous radical ideology that makes the MLs give their sensible arguments? I MUST HAVE THIS POWER

We are not accelerationist. We are realist. And you have your head stuck up your bum. America is an imperialist empire and fascists are the useful idiots of the empire. The chemist watches chemicals change, so do people who have political literacy. What is happening is not a surprise. Liberals are controlled opposition and they work on behalf of the military industrial complex. Love me, love me, I'm a liberal. Leaning in to smell your own brand I bet. Kahlama lama ding dong there's nothing but a pig. And as I change my framework and I'm honest with myself, I listen to her talk and she sounds almost like she doesn't even want to be there. The Democrats are losing. Not only because there is no way you're going to stop this train, but because they're too fat and happy. Oh Nancy! Where's Nancy? Probably too busy getting rich. You can't just watch YouTube and TV and act like you're an expert on politics. I listen to the right wing because they are the byproduct of a failing capitalist system and they have needs as well. And they might project their insecurities on you, but at the same time, they are the confused proletariat.

You're right, Kamala didn't want to be there. She wanted to lose. And you were fool enough to give her exactly what she wanted. Why did you work with Kamala? Why help her?? Are you working for the liberal oligarchy too?

Shouting Bidens sins was the only way to get them to run a candidatewho coukd have had a shot. Its the DNCs fault she positioned herself to commit the same sins.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

So you're saying you took a risky gambit hoping the Democrats would improve, and they didn't, and you got a fascist elected?

Who could have predicted thaaaaaaaaat.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I did not make genocide unpopular, the only way the dems could have won was if they did everything in their power to fight Republicans and improve people's material conditions and promised even more after the election. The only thing I could do was try to stop them from deluding themselves that they could win with dogshit policy and 4 years of telling their constituents to eat shit while working with Republicans.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I can't tell if I have a higher opinion of you because I think you could have done better, or if I have a lower opinion of you because you won't accept you failed. Either way no, you didn't choose the best strategy you could have.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

The only strategy that could have worked was to get the dems to run an electable platform. Telling critics to shut up and vote helps them maintain the delusion the can win with the right messaging or moving further to the right. Nothing I could possibly say to a random potential voter will be as effective as "the dems ar e the reason you have free healthcare", "the Republicans will restart the genocide in Palestine", or "remember that time Biden's AG threw Trump and a dozen republican congressmen in prison for treason?"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago

And you thought the democrats were smart enough to run an electable platform? Well then I'm sure you won't take it as an insult when I say your intelligence is akin to theirs.

Your plan failed, and you should have known it would fail.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I still can't believe they sat on their fucking hands after Trump's multiple indictments, and did nothing to prevent the dude from running again after breaking the law 90+ times. What a useless party. All they did was try to look good.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago

What a useless party. All they did was try to look good.

Be fair. They also sold weapons to netanyahu for genocide.
