There was a documentary about Daryl Davis that came out a while back and one of the last segments was him talking to two inner city black dudes who criticized the whole let's all hold hands and talk approach and one of them was like "while weve been out marching and protesting, you were out making friends" and Davis tried a put down on one of them for not graduating high school and both of them and the older guy who came in for the interview lost their poo poo on them

Davis sounds kinda dumb and naive at times tbh

Woofer posted:

we can talk it out but I don’t have to feel bad about a klan member dying.

SKULL.GIF posted:

you're changing the context of the discussion

karen is dead. there's no more convincing or cajoling to be done. she died after actively spreading deathplague.

a whole lot more chuds are going to follow her into the grave doing the exact same thing she did.

Yeah Karen is dead, but everyone who listened to her and other denialisnts are not. Her death is an opportunity to educate, organize, and radicalize. I'm not asking anyone to cry for Karen I'm saying that circle-jerking about her death is counterproductive to the goal of organizing for a better future.

If you're just too precious to dirty your hands by talking to a chud I can't make you, but don't pretend that it's because you're just so committed to the principles of socialism and that it somehow makes you a good leftist. This is a weakness, not a strength, and you should be ashamed of it not proud of it. If you want to piss in your own mouth about it fine, but the backsplash is gonna get on your comrades out there actually doing the work and make that work harder so don't pretend otherwise.

Idk what this refers to but Davis in the specific is also not important to the point I'm making which is sub-101 level babyshit of BUILDING SOLIDARITY. Any leftist worth their salt should understand solidarity and how to build it, and yet somehow my posts on the topic are controversial. Anyone who thinks that building solidarity is pointless is a narcissistic nihilist, not a socialist, and you should stop lying to yourselves.

is it tho?

Everyone is bringing up Daryl and kudos to him but the vast majority of these galaxy brained turds will not change their minds and will be forever chuds. I will not look at their deaths as a missed opportunity or TEACHABLE MOMENT but a dodged bullet. One that each and every chud keeps under their pillow with our goddamn names on it

I can see that you are very good at convincing people of things with rhetorical techniques such as calling others morons who can't understand this "sub-101 level babyshit". I'll will try this with the CHUDs. Thank you.

you are asking people who've been beaten into mean dogs to not bite the hand that beats them. it's admirable, the point you are trying to get at here, but it's just too late.

edit: and im not even referring to myself here, i recognize the problems of capitalism yet I live fairly comfortably, posting in C-SPAM over the course of my posting career made me understand it's not doing even 1% as much harm to me as it's doing to an actually struggling worker.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.


Roughly 4 people in Louisville have been fitted with ankle monitors for violating self-quarantine after testing positive and there's a judge whose only job right now is hearing these cases on-call so they can fit them with the monitors almost immediately. Apparently no where else in the US is doing this although its fairly common in Asia? The prison guard union's all up in arms about it because they haven't actually been charged with a crime but also its open and shut legally because its a court order and mandatory isolation is a power explicitly given to judges in our states public health laws once an emergency's been declared.
