Political Memes is socialist?

I literally blocked it because it's just liberals pretending to be socialist.

I was banned from there for "misinformation" when I explained MLK's position on moderates and linked his letter from Birmingham jail.

A guy on there told me that I should thank liberals for the Civil Rights Act, and when I pointed to the letter from A Birmingham Jail, his response was, "and yet they passed the Civil Rights Act a year later. Curious, no?" Like...yeah dumbass, because actual progressives kept pressuring them publicly, like King did in the Birmingham letter.

That and threatening violence.

I’m a leftist and I am against violence. Does that make me a “shitlib”? Because I think that kind of rhetoric does great harm to our cause.

Okay.

How many years of habitability does Earth have left?

How's that working for the wealth gap in every nation?

How much longer before they don't even need class traitors to fill their armies?

Hey, when you’ve got the numbers for a revolution, I’ll join you. Until then, I am going to sit here and keep not killing anyone.

You can just say you've given up and don't actually care. You don't have to pretend to believe in "gradual reform"

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

You can too. You don’t have to pretend to believe in violent revolution.
