Those woke liberals and their pronouns, I stopped reading once I saw that.

Well luckily this won’t be a problem since we won’t have the money, space of career stability to have kids until we’re 40 anyway. By then they’ll have no choice but to retire.

True. Gotta break out of that habit. My friends are starting quarterly block parties in our neighborhood. We can get back to it but we probably need to stop using social media so much.

Gotta rebuild our community support networks. There are obstacles but it seems solvable.

What’s stopping communal childcare from becoming a thing again? This is how working parents did it for thousands of years.

So are you one of these people who rejects the historian consensus and claims the Bolsheviks and their allies did not commit mass murder? There are hundreds of examples we could discuss but how about the way they dealt with the Kronstadt rebellion.

Tankies always have a source, usually a 100-year old text written by some propagandist that “explains everything” but they refuse to point to a specific page or statement and instead demand that you need to read 600 pages and go hunting for whatever piece of information is supposed to be in there. Sorry, I don’t count that as a real source.

As far as the media—which media? “Socialist” media is gospel, western media is automatically rejected without any analysis. It’s cult thinking.

Almost completely backwards. These are people who are wrong far too late. It is shameful to defend mass-murder decades after it has been unequivocally proven by historians.

What do you call them then?

Hahaha true. I try to avoid some of the drama but I just think this guy has way more influence than he deserves given the shallow and inaccurate nature of his videos.

Second thought the tankie?

Me IRL

Love that is enforced by violence is meaningless.

I’m not offended—I always want to be aware of the possibility I’m getting it wrong. But your comment really doesn’t have any information or substance to support that possibility.

I think the population of leftists who ditched the democrats for a third party over Gaza is extremely small and had basically no impact. Are you saying you think Harris would have won if she took a more anti-Zionist stance here? And if so, why do you believe that?

I’m speaking from the perspective of American voters. But it’s actually the opposite. The privileged can research and think about bigger reforms like universal healthcare. But I think most voters just wanted prices to go down.

Did you really just learn this?

I’m saying from the perspective of American voters. And for them, yes, genocide in a faraway place is a small issue. If they’re even aware it’s happening at all.

But also, I don’t think the policy differences here are that impactful. I don’t see the US stopping the genocide without going to war, which I don’t see any appetite for from anyone.

Probably at least try lol. But I’m not sure we’ll have quite the political monopoly the boomers did as we’re proportionately smaller and also I think more diverse, so we have less of a singular vision for politics.

This debate is so silly because the real cause has to do with economic conditions and not the small policy differences between Kamala and Bernie or whoever the left wanted.

Culturally irrelevant in terms of what? I think we’ll be culturally relevant until we die, just like previous generations. For example, despite their age, boomers have dominated politics for almost my entire life.

Loud cars. So fucking lame.

You could create it on an instance not federated with them (mine isn’t so I don’t have to deal with their antics). Where did you make it? I’ll check it out I guess.
