Why are there so many hillary lovers on lemmy?
What did Russell Brand do to get famous? I remember him back in the 2010s being known for questioning existing power structures. Like, he got on stage at some event sponsored by Hugo Boss and brought up the fact that they made uniforms for the nazis.
No such thing as antisemitism on the left. It’s antithetical to leftism. If you’re antisemitic then you’re not in the leftist camp. Anti Zionism is not antisemitism.

If anyone wants to be mod DM me.
Still wouldn’t have happened without direct action, which is ultimately what I’m trying to get at in these comments. People like MLK had to put their asses on the line to make change happen. Had to rally support. Simply voting doesn’t really accomplish much. It took Black Americans getting beat in the streets, causing issues for politicians to get the civil rights act past the finish line. You’re right that it does take time for progress to happen but without direct action like what MLK did I don’t think anything would have ever gotten accomplished.
I’m not expecting to accomplish much of anything by voting for someone else. I prefer direct action.
What other part?
There is zero proof of that. You would call MLK a main character?
Define reasonable discourse
Goddammit I never said not to vote. What do you hope to accomplish by only voting?
It’s not selfish. People are SUFFERING and DYING. The people who are selfish are the ones who don’t want to give up the privilege and luxury they have that is only made possible by the suffering and exploitation of others these reforms would help the most.
That’s the biggest lol in history
I will keep making it long after the election.
Ironic you’re calling me an idiot when you can’t see the damage neoliberals like biden have caused and continue to cause. For starters, guy is literally enabling a genocide. He can’t even bring himself to call trump and his goons in the GOP fascists. I do mutual aid work with various organizations and I see the suffering these so called progressives in government allow to continue year after year while spending billions on bullshit like police and the defense industry.
Lol, I’m not trying to get arrested right now.
There is plenty of direct action people can take besides a violent revolution to improve their and others circumstances
Lol. Joe biden is a neoliberal. Hillary clinton is a neoliberal. Al gore, Bill clinton, Barack obama. All neoliberal. No leftist who is anticapitalist (as they should be) will call themselves liberal. That’s just some america-brained shit.
