Right wing conspiracy theorists: "YOU'LL SEE! IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE CHINESE COMMUNIST JEWISH MUSLIM SATANISTS ACTIVATE THEIR SPACE LASERS TO TURN THE EARTH INTO A SPHERE AND USE VACCINES TO RAISE CTHULHU FROM THE DEAD AND SNAP THE INFINITY GAUNTLET AND"

Left wing conspiracy theorists: "Ah shit we got proven right again."

    But only if you're doing what needs to be done.

    Really good book! A little bit inaccessible in the first two chapters though.

    Jokes aside, a good start is to join a socialist org, participate, and start developing yourself politically. I believe cowbee has a good reading list.

    Indeed, it's far less stressful to watch these events unfold when you understand the underlying mechanics and why they're happening.

    Haha speak for yourself. Understanding the underlying mechanics makes it obvious what comes next and I kind of wish we could just skip that part. 😅

    It's not gonna be pretty that's for sure. It's still better to know what's coming than to just have it happen to you.

    Wait I’m intrigued that there’s a happy ending in the long run? I’m super ignorant in this area but like…have other countries we view as relatively socialist (Euro stuff?) gone through a similar process that the US is going through? Definitely looking for some optimism these days.

    Exactly. This should be framed as a failed coup that will result in social reform/revolution. These clowns are poorly organized, on drugs most of the time, and have no clues how the social organism works.

    It's pretty shitty that they'll cause a lot of unnecessary pain tho.
