    Have you ever spoke with them in good faith and asked what they mean and if they seriously believe revolution is possible under the current material conditions of the US empire? I am sure you can find someone who might say yes to this but it is in no way close to the consensus. I’ve personally never encountered it

        It certainly depicts it as a norm which is where I found disagreement and honestly anyone advocating for that should be talked to and educated instead of shamed through vague posting.

          Not really? It just says “the leftists I met online”, that’s a sample not consensus

          And I’ve tried talking and educating, you can’t reason someone out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into. And this post isn’t for them, it’s for the Calvins out there.

            They’re saying that they’ve literally never met anyone calling for immediate action whilst proclaiming to interact regularly with Hexbears. They’re not in good faith.

                    “Punching left”

                    Sorry, I don’t think that bootlickers for fascist regimes are ‘left’ just because their favorite fascist regime has a coat of red paint.
