[dude with glasses in a communist t-shirt, arguing] I'm the only leftist here, your opinions are TRASH

[dude holding a theory book on smug, arguing] Read theory you losers, you're all WRONG

[dude in an anarchist hoodie, arguing] Nuh-uh, I'm the only leftist here, you're SHITLIBS

[the three dudes are now caught in a cartoon fight, glasses gone flying, punches everywhere, while a firing squad of nazis are targeting them with rifles]

This is an odd take just considering World War 2 is like the example of unity against a common genocidal threat: the Nazis.

There were no anarchists left in the USSR.

And the Soviets allied with Nazi Germany and carved up Poland with their new buddies.

Yeah that's why they're stupid. I think it's more of an astroturf op

This is a selffulfilling prophecy. People don't try coordinating because everybody knows that they can only win by raw force.

Add in some conservatives from le other side to the first panel and replace the soldiers in the second panel with the 1% and id say it’s accurate.

The nice thing about the two party system is that there is no one else to vote for. Its how we got here. But at least we will have a chance of putting someone who has an idea how to run a country in charge

A professor in college once said something that stayed with me. He said that "bad ideologies will always find ways to self implode".

This stuck with me because it's true. Good ideologies tend to be pragmatic and flexible, and so they're able to adapt and evolve. However, bad ideologies tend to be more rigid and focus mostly on theories and ideals, and therefore they're unable to adapt or evolve. Far left ideologies firmly fall in the latter category which is why they are where they are.

interesting u should say that. theres actually this political system that someone used complex systems analysis to create in an adaptable, yet stable way. very much like the evolutionary process.

if ur interested, its this series, particularly part 2:
