i look at my stupid son and how he uses WildKratz Cheetah Power to run away from me while I try to get a diaper on him while he pisses on my floor and i can't imagine i'd have a life expediency measured in more than hours if someone put him in a fucking cage.

really lolling at my New England friends who post shit like "i had no idea that republicans are like this, i must be living in a bubble," like yeah, do ya think?? fucking moron. doug stanhope is a dirtbag piece of shit but he said something once that i think about all the time: "i don't like when minorities say you can't understand racism because you're white. i say you can't understand racism because you're NOT white. i hear the shit they say when you leave the room. they don't hold back on my account"

the ur-experience of being trapped somewhere with Democrat Party white people over the last couple decades has been two hours of sagely nodding conversation about how the real problem of racism is invisible and "systemic", followed by three hours of slow, cautious testing of whether the room prefers Bleeding Edge Irony Racism or Hard Truths Of A Simple Cracker Racism

the best thing about Obama's deportation shit is that it didn't get him any credit at all. my grandparents are proto-MAGA and they would constantly rant about how obama was letting all the damn illegals in and i didn't have the desire to Well Actually them about how he deported more people than anybody. and they wouldn't believe me if i did, and if i went to the effort to prove it they'd say it wasn't enough and hate him anyway. then trump won on how obama was too soft on immgration. great work dude. your compromise was literally worse than nothing

the thing about obama is that i don't think he really Wanted to deport all those people but shucks darnit that's what the law says and it would get him some credibility with the right. and to defend him juuuuust a little bit that was the period before it was obvious that in politics you can do whatever you want as long as you attack anyone who criticizes you and never apologize

this DSA shit as far as I can tell is this cringey let's yell about morality at these unresponsive husks that's kinda cathartic in the face of feeling absolutely powerless but also accomplishes nothing. like if they threw a nail-bomb into her gilded carriage as it rolled down Pennsylvania ave. I would maybe question the strategic value of that kind of adventurism but more or less respect the intent. it's like that video that got posted recently of the guy who goes to a city council meeting to yell that he was a father! a troop! and an ANARCHIST!!! and he wouldn't take it anymore! at this wrinkled and leering politician who clearly couldn't give less of a shit about being yelled at by a clown.

The problem is that what we have in North Amerika are microsects, not mass parties or a base. In the absence of those we can’t do much beyond embarrassing bourgeois functionaries at dinner.

or, Like, work with & within communities to help provide that which oppression denies their members, such as helping prisoners get books they want to read that have been de facto banned from prison libraries, demonstrating socialism as a living, breathing force in the world in the many places where capitalist crisis has allowed sympathy with revolutionary aims to bloom. or you could donate to get a geriatric, who ghosted Matt Taibbi for being too radical, into a position where he re-endorses bombing Damascus into fish tank pebbles but still loses a national election in the United States, then contract fail aids and die, there’s a lot of options really.

Kjirsten Nillsen went home from the restaurant and wrote a new policy to stop separating kids from parents so it sorta worked, that and all the other shit they were eating

I’m not recommending resignation or quietism. Just unhelpfully pointing out that in the short-term struggle against ICE, joining sect Y with the better shibboleth on the Lao People’s Democratic Republic or w/e isn’t an automatic panacea to the strategic weakness that neckwattle was talking about.

In conclusion: everyone should join RCPUSA and get to work on applying the New Synthesis.

the new policy is literally just indefinite imprisonment of families and an order to ignore the courts so
