Mellow Seas posted:I never questioned why leftists hate liberals, but hating a political party because you thought they would love and protect and nurture you is stupid. (Love, protection and nurturing are what are implied by using a "mother" metaphor.) I hate most Democrats and I hate what happend with this primary but that doesn't bar me from making objective evaluations of candidates (or attempting to, anyway). The democrats don't do poo poo, they take credit for the work of tens of millions of people fighting, organizing and advocating. They only pass things to benefit us when we've already safely won the battle years ago. We don't need them, they're only slowing us down.

Anyway the point is you have never stared the worst parts of American capitalism and fascism in the face. The fact that you said my simple experiences were "bragging about what a good person" I am, as a trans community advocate, is loving insulting to both me and the people I serve. You do not understand what drives us because nothing drives you Edit: What makes me "a good person" for staring at death by poverty at 6:30 am on a Tuesday morning, before I've even had a chance to get my coffee?

yronic heroism posted:Obama is neither right wing nor an authoritarian no matter how much you want hating him to make it true. And again, this is a lot of rending of garments over an informal one-sentence definition that doesn’t pretend to be more than that. Indeed, one might even go so far to assume repeatedly ignoring that fact is (gasp) bad-faith posting. No one in this thread is working from a surface level definition of fascism. If you are going to argue that marginalized peoples views of and experiences under fascism are using the wrong definition then you're going to have to back that up in a way that running to dictionary.com won't fulfill

yronic heroism posted:As far as elected officials go, Biden has certainly been in the middle of the Democratic Party ideologically for at least 30 years. We get it, you hate most of the party. But most Democrats have not only decided they can live with most of the party, they actually like being Democrats. Even under the most cynical view, card check and HR1 benefit Democratic politicians so yeah, they have every reason to pass it. Use the embarrassment to radicalize yourself instead of blaming the folks you decided to speak down too

For whatever reason you do not agree with this necessary action and also devote time that you claim you use so well being this great humanitarian telling us how important it is for us not to take the necessary action. I'm just describing my work, dude. Many of the others who hold similar views as mine would have had their own stories and tactics.

And yes, I do have the privilege to be WFH right now. Because the people I work with have principles, realize the scope of our work is going to be narrow during quarantine, and are keeping us on payroll regardless. I have privilege to be provided for, and I am endlessly grateful for it every day because I have never known this before. I am an insect compared to many of the people around me, but you don't get to talk down to me while advocating I vote for someone directly responsible for the oppression of those same folks.
