Okay, so I've been noticing a lot of people saying that the left is broken, or that nobody takes it seriously, and these people talk a lot about how social media is the end of civilization so you know they're on the loving ball! So let's figure out some ways to boost the sagging, crumbling image that the Left is faced with because someone said something on Twitter.
- Bake Sale - Always a good start, and, hell, if we do it in Colorado, muchos points with young people!
- Cut A Deal With The Girl Scouts - Actually, although the Girl Scouts of the USA sell delicious cookies and speak to the idea of collective action and are popular everywhere except on townhall.com, they've admitted trans women as members and we don't need that distracting from Real LeftismTM.
- Adjust Platforms - For example, the Democrats could replace their commitments to civil rights, Roe v. Wade, and equal pay with banning public universities from having "women's studies", "African-American literature" or "sociology" courses, an educational policy that tries to minimize the number of kids that go to college, and a law that would make it clear once and for all that it's okay to call people fags and you're not a homophobe if you do so. All of these things are missing from the modern Left, which is why there's no socialist party winning elections in the USA.
- Combat Liberalism - It's about time leftists faced up to the fact that authentic leftism requires purging liberal poison and accepting that human beings are perfectly rational creatures that solely act to maximize their economic benefit. Doing this and talking at length about it will win elections for sure.
- Death Squads - The Left hosed up with the Charlie Hebdo attacks. Rather than come out firmly in favor of a pre-emptive nuclear strike against Indonesia, Bangladesh, and the Middle East, they- we- put together a bunch of articles that said a lot of things, none of them about slaughtering all Muslims. We cannot undo that, but we can begin to make up for it by committing a series of violent terrorist acts against Muslims in our own countries, reassuring everyone that we are fully committed to the best principles of Western civilization and defending it from the slavering
horde culture that is assailing it.
- An Assault on Racism - One front that has been neglected in anti-racist efforts is the home front, where people are making a wide variety of downright liberal suggestions, like "the American police force disproportionately targets racial minorities for arrests and police violence", etc., which are incompatible with the reality that class is all that matters, and even worse are pretending to be minorities while doing so. We need to make it clear to the people that say such things that doing so makes them white. Also maybe we could extend this further, to
feminism anti-sexism and gay rights anti-homophobia efforts.
- Ban Cartoons - This one should speak for itself, and frankly it should have gone at the top of the list because of how important it is.
Anyone else have any ideas to save leftism in America and by extension the world?

Have you considered:
- Spread the Wealth - Sweatshop jobs take money away from the vile western factory worker and give it to the noble Bangladeshi wage slave (so long as they are not buried in rubble). We should encourage this movement by standing for free trade.
Bake Sale could interfere with Girl Guide Cookie marketing, we need to synergise these more effectively.
- Invent AI citizens to eliminate all labor, allowing the left nothing to do but populist uprising.
These are all good ideas, keep 'em coming!

tl; dr - big tent is filled with bickering by interests that want to obtain electability through sacrificing everyone else's priorities, OP writes piercing satire based on this thoroughly unprecedented insight.
That's not what this is about at all. This is a serious thread and there will be no more trolling like this, got it?

- End Callout Culture - It's pretty simple. End the liberal menace of callout culture by publicizing people who do it and putting together an informal corps of people to attack them via social media and inform their families/employers about their disgusting actions, thereby suppressing callout culture for good.

someone seems awfully bothered by having red text
Make sure you're sensitive to Cultural Appropriation, your technological solutions must be applied only to those groups who match the exact ethnic proportion of the creator of said solution
also, kill you'reself
Hmm, not seeing how any of these posts are on-topic at all, can you explain?

- Being Reasonable - Basically, if you decide to say that, oh, abortion should be a legal privilege extending from the right to privacy, and someone else says, "Abortion is murder" in response, you should immediately agree with them and join Operation Rescue. This will garner over one billion votes in the USA alone.

- End White-Knighting - The greatest sin possible is white-knighting, and, so, to avoid it, a group of at least 30% racists will examine prospective leftists to determine what topics they can talk about. Paper bags will be paid for out of charitable donations.

- Ending the Circular Firing Squad - We all know that the one thing holding us back from full
communism social democracy limited taxation on wealth now is the constant internal struggles and debates, mostly done by people who, get this, may have owned a Che tee at some point and are possibly hipsters. Many of them, horror of horrors, are the bad kind of LGBT too. So my suggestion is, why not devote our energies to destroying those loving splitters by writing really angry irony at them? Given that they're all suffering from crippling social anxiety, lol, we can hopefully drive them sons of bitches into suicide and take over the world.

Guilt tripping - create a topic and write angry posts with edgy, sarcastic advices for the left, scorning them for abandoning you the cause of social equality. Let them realize they have made a grave mistake when they chose not to heed Stalin's Chosen Warrior more dedicated leftists than themselves. By discarding the important issue of Japanese-Americans getting offended by white women wearing kimonos, they have proven they are scum who should be exterminated cold, uncaring dead to me capitalist puppets begging for another inch of their master's white cock social democrats. It's important they realize that there is no true left without Effectronica tackling the issues I deem important important issues they are so afraid to talk about, in fear of losing their hetero cis white male advantage.
Abrasive Irony
Leftists should treat all issues as comedic and suggest that it is beneath their dignity to actually discuss political solutions in a serious manner. Thus, with the power of snark they can avoid realizing their own privilege and that they are the main beneficiaries of a system of racist, sexist and capitalist oppression. Plus with this strategy you can drink PBR.
Raising awareness - it's important we let everybody know that if they disagree with us, it's only because they are afraid of hard, unpleasant truth we bring to them. Every sign of dissent means that the worm of reaction is gnawing at their souls. We must expose it and bring it to light, for there is only one way to truth and it goes through our lord and master, Effectronica.
It follows that since someone doesn't agree with DnD goons about the racism inherent in in white people making empanadas, that they deny the existence of systemic racism entirely.
Good job, everyone, on putting my latest idea into practice!
I don't think you should do this
if it's a kind of self-imposed therapy, then from the outside at least it doesn't seem like it's working. when you post long angry paragraphs at other people that are just fancy ways of telling people they should die, that just makes other people post bad at you, which makes you angry at them in a loop. You are a good person and I don't want you to be so mad all the time thanks
This is not therapy. This is not "posting angry paragraphs at other people that are just fancy ways of telling people they should die", unless there are Muslim posters in this thread. This is a serious thread, and I will not abide this metaposting.

- Politics and the English Language - George Orwell argued that refraining from jargon, cliches, platitudes and the like was essential to effective communication and the transmission of thought. He went further and suggested writing as clearly as possible. However, Orwell has been cited by rightists and the eXile wrote some stuff about him so we should ignore that. I'm thinking Random CaPiTaLiZeD LETters, PUOA, and gigantic clauses that use an inordinate collection of alternately ornate and crude verbiage to communicate ideas so frail and thin and said elsewhere in the paragraph that it is almost as if, they, in the metaphorical and literal senses, did not exist in any way shape or form whatsoever. Possibilities for the future: sentences made entirely out of cliches, swearwords made up of jamming together existing cusses with other words (fuckjammer, etc).

- Gun Control - The absolute best way to win votes is to fold at the first sign of resistance, showing that you have incredible moral fortitude and are a reasonable person. Or at least it was until a genius like yours truly figured out that you could fold preemptively. So in order to win over thirty billion votes for communism, all leftists will be required to stand up for the right to bear arms every single time. For example, if a police officer kills someone with a taser under suspicious circumstances, that's worthy of further investigation. But if they used a gun, it's perfectly all right no matter what. This will undoubtedly take some time to heal the scars, but eventually we too can kill hundreds of raceless faceless home invaders with grenade launchers and bazookas.

The left should have used gamer gate as a vehicle for the presentation of hard truths about the nature of consumer culture. Games journalism, like sports journalism and all other mouthpieces for industry, is stupid poo poo for babies.
This is not a joke thread. Please make serious posts only.

- Action for Action's Sake - As we all know, if something is academic, it's essentially worthless, unless it's properly folkish. However, many people have failed to get the message, and in the name of leftism, the radicalism of the Center, we must compel them to thoughtless action, such as violence against liberals. I recommend encouraging a perception of liberals as all-powerful idiots to help correct squeamishness and sentiment.
