Idk why, but I have this feeling that, if theoretically we wipe out the corps of military opposition, NSA, and reactionaries, left-libs CANT'T DO SHIT against us (politicians included) (hexbear.net)

Like, IDK, despite their political policy ultimately heading that of the foreign and economic policy of the west, they don't seem to be the type to resist if military conflict were to occur against them, and say, Hexbears win against them...

Perhaps we can use them as a sort of hollow government opposition to laugh at, and claim that "we're still a liberal democracy"

Whereas I can see right-libs (cons) at least having some sort of shoddy milita, if not military training, who would gladly fight for left-libs, like the Freikorps defending the Weimar Republic, and the Black Hundreds defending Kerensky's gov't

Alleged left libs will be providing institutional, economic, and propaganda support for the militant reactionaries. You can't just "wipe out" the former independent of the latter, they are intertwined. The harder an organized left pushes, the more insecure the left libs get, and the more they press the freikorps button. "I don't support their politics but at least they respect the rule of law and protect us from the terrorists. USA! USA! USA!" American "left" liberals are not free if fascistic thinking and will justify it.

In reality, the necessary actions would just be a violent revolution that begins with us defending ourselves. It would require us to adapt and fight on many different fronts and not just against reactionary military elements. The pencil pushers ensuring the function of drones that bomb our rallies could never be considered off limits, and really, once it is war, all logistics and economic support would become a valid target. By the time that would be in full swing, nobody involved in fighting would care about overt reactionary vs. left lib, only what is it strategic value.

I stand corrected... heh, guess I couldn't see that "left libs" were merely just a polite mask and support for scratched liberalism, not a seperate bourgeois group of its own...

When the base is threatened, the left-lib superstructure dissolves
