Ugh these people suck so bad. On average, western leftists are worse than useless. Some bullet points are kinda interesting, even if annoying.

Some of these are absolutely ridiculous. “WATCH OUT FOR CHARISMATIC LEADERS!” Yes, if you want to make sure your organization is safe, make sure the leaders are unlikable morons who smell bad.

that does unironically seem like part of how liberals operate. "you know our country is free because everyone hates the government smuglord "

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 23 points 2 weeks ago

It's how state media in liberal countries work too. "You know our reporting is unbiased and objective because we get equal amounts of complaints from the left and the right" smuglord
Nevermind what people are complaining about, as long as everyone is unhappy the system must be functioning.

vanguard party filled with stinkos

I've got a buddy in a trot party and they're insufferable to talk to. They actually wait for the revolution and their plan is that "then the people will let them lead it". Are they doing anything? No, because the revolution hasn't begun yet.

I also knew an anarchist who wouldn't volunteer at a soup kitchen because it was organised by trots. No ideology is safe from dipshits, but there's a few that have some very obvious and loud dipshits

trots missing is very common, for an example one can open the contents of one of their newspapers

'both sidesing palestine'

and there it is again

[-] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 2 points 2 weeks ago

Trots always seem to manage to look like the weakest smelliest losers at any rally.

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago

You can critique them without being weird about how people look.

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 30 points 2 weeks ago

It's like when some dumbass dem said "politics is not a popularity contest!"
It literally is. That's what the system you've set up is about. Who can get the support of the populace - i.e. who is more popular?
"Watch out for charismatic leaders!" Yeah, wouldn't want to be appealing to the masses ew

kicking lenin, stalin, and other prominent bolsheviks out of the party and watching the thing collapse but its okay since now no one good at their job is in charge so that means we're not tankies

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 15 points 2 weeks ago

We can't kick them out though since a formalised hierarchy or centralized organisation would be bad. We can't make a commitee about it either though, since that would be bureaucracy. We can't exclude them socially either, since that would mean they lose their friends upon leaving the org. Luckily none of us are doing anything, so it doesn't really matter.

im glad that we're a competent, truly communist org, ready to lead (not really because that would be authoritarian) the revolution when it happens... eventually

one day

Wait… are you saying you want unlikable leaders who smell bad?

[-] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago

Okay they can be likable

[-] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

i hope you dont actually mean this
