The 20th Century also shows that capitalists, when faced with any barrier to their power that can't be immediately remedied by their agents in a liberal system, will immediately work towards tearing down liberalism.

She wants to be rational, so...

Rather than give her more long-term attention, just remove her from your feed.

Gotta love the stabilizing, pro-democracy effects of private enterprise in a free market!

Yeah, let's go for the Fetterman cutout again, then. Worked out great last time.

What ideology before liberalism brought those ideas up?

Fuss @semperfitrex.bsky.social · 1d

Tough to disagree with that.

Ultimately, the idea of universal human freedom came out of liberalism, but capitalism simply can't deliver it. So liberals have to figure out which of the two ideas they believe in more.

Gotta leave room for those that choose liberty over capital.

They also make a lot more sense! A creeping, insidious cancer from within, not just a beacon for hive fleets.

I've known J for a bit, and I disagree. I would suggest that, if you're both sincere about hating fascism and wanting to help people, it's probably best to do mutual de-escalation.

Liberalism is on the road to failure. It's coming apart at the seams without any sabotage from us.

So do you want to leave the door open for well-meaning people to join a socialist movement once liberalism inevitably betrays them? Or should we work to alienate them as much as possible?

Genestealers should be their own thing. Folding them into Tyranids is lame.

You know, if the end result is socialism, that's a fucking win in my book.

People who decide money is inseparable from power, and/or people who think the only problem with power based on wealth that the upper-middle classes are being kept from power by the upper-class, seem to be pretty common among many liberals on here.

I don't take a dime from any PAC or lobbyist, including AIPAC.

I am proud to be one of the handful of Democrats standing up against Big Money.
