You should try reading actual political theory. You’ll find that western politics isn’t and has never been grounded in reality. It does not have a material basis and as such it gains support primarily through the people’s emotions, especially fear and anger.

Here’s some easy reading to get you started

• The Communist Manifesto[Text][Audio]
• Blackshirts and Reds[Text][Audio]
• The Principles of Communism[Text][Audio]
• Introduction to Political Economy[Text]

I don’t expect to shove books like this in your face and actually have you immediately read all of them. You may not be at the part of your political developement where you have any motivation to do that. So here are some youtube channels that cover the material in them and apply that material to modern reality in a more easily digestable way. These are great resources that can teach you a lot but they are not and should not replace reading actual political theory. In my experience these helped develop my understanding of political economy to the point where I had sufficient motivation to read that theory.

• Second Thought
• 1Dime
• Balkan Odyssey
• Bes D. Marx
• F.D Signifier
• Fredda
• horses
• Andrewism

None of these people get everything perfect all the time but they are generally good in my experience. Best of luck learning.

I wasn’t suggesting that Republicans don’t do this

If only that were true

Both American political parties do this often. It’s much easier to attack your opponent for their transgressions than it is to prove your own aptitude and it seems to be just as, if not more, convincing to the average person. I don’t think this should be particularly shocking.

Probably CNN?

I wish this was unbelievable

This person could be damaging corporate infrastructure but he goes after internet archive

Yes, genuinely

This is a clown country

Fly high sherbert

I lost my green cheek a few years back, the silence was so loud. I had never sobbed like that before I lost him

Thats a good lawn mower, the best kind of lawn mower even

That sounds unhinged to me. Are you perhaps bald? My hair is really thick and not very porous so it holds water rediculously well. If I did that it’d take 30 minutes

Ah I remember this game. A 2016 classic

The american legal system isn’t about justice

I used to before I learned about RSS

Holy shit thats why I’m so temperature sensitive?

Damn, canada was my other guess (or greenland but like no one lives there)

Where do you live? Siberia?

I with you on voting in local elections. When in conjunctions with grassroots organizing this is where change can truly be made

I’ll withhold my vote from trump then I guess. Fascism isn’t something you can vote away, its roots are entirely systemic and the Democrats have no desire to do away with it anyway. People being scared of fascism is basically their best argument for getting elected these days. It’s very useful for them.

Besides, what incentive do the Democrats have to change their policy if they won’t lose a single voter. I’m not so naive that I believe politicians in either party determine policy based off morality.
