Weird how “only us, only together” in theory becomes “anyone who disagrees with me can and wants to 'die with this system'” in practice.
Real serious collective politics there. Stunning way to build a movement.
No, but if you're completely incapable of believing anything but liberalism then there isn't any way to help you. The system has been a zombie for a long time, there's no saving it. I'm doing what I can, but that doesn't include saving people who are actively fighting against being saved.
Good luck with your fight. I'm gonna spend my energy doing something useful.
Edit: actually, I see that your whole thing is just wasting everyone's time. I hope you get a life.
Well, the edit did save me some work.
You chose to keep replying (including to announce you'll be off "doing something useful"), then come back just to tack on a personal insult and blame me for wasting your time. That is a pretty revealing model of the politics: grand plans for a new system, zero patience for the people you would need to build it with, and somehow even your own choices are someone else’s fault.
If everyone outside your circle is a zombie, a liberal, or too far gone to bother with, you won’t build a movement. You’ll build a clubhouse.
And a clubhouse is fine. It just is not going to replace a system you keep evading a real contest with.
But if this is how you practice politics, you clearly do not need my help wasting your own time.
