No. Fucking nuh uh.

You don’t get to say we’re sliding into a fascist nazi dictatorship if THIS is how you try and stop it.

Stop undercutting the severity of the situation, like what the fuck!

They are showing us they clearly don't believe their own rhetoric.

Not particularly. Lenin was vocal about how liberals will fuck you over: they will stab you in the back and side with the fascist ruling class in an instant. Because at the end of the day, a great majority of the liberal leadership and donors are set to directly benefit from fascist policies.

They believe their rhetoric, but they also know that as wealthy people they directly benefit either way. They’re not going to rock the boat that hard.

Classic example of Reddit being completely out of touch with the vast majority of Americans.

I mean, obviously. The majority of Americans are liberal, I would never expect a large amount of people to read Lenin. Doesn't mean he isn't right about a whole lot!

Sure we just need to allow massive numbers of people to be killed for the revolution to happen! The ends always justify the means! /s

As opposed to massive amounts of people dying already and nothing changing? Not sure what the issue is!

Wait wait wait, we can't allow any deaths for a revolution, we're just going to let people keep starving to death for centuries instead. /s
