  • It’s really worth taking the time to understand different political ideology from a historical perspective. And an especially important one, liberalism, is basically the water in which we swim, so it often goes unnoticed.

    It’s common to try and put things on a spectrum and say this is left and that is right, but this form of reductionism really doesn’t match history or practice.









  • I’ve always thought of it as outright propaganda. You aren’t supposed to use the same weapons as the enemy, cus then you are just as bad as them. You can’t take power when it’s available, else just as bad as them. You must remain pure, or else you’ll be corrupted. Oh and off course, the lower of good always triumphs.

    It’s all propaganda to.mantaim existing power structures by funneling resistance into the least effect strategies, and it works… it works really fucking well. Its a practical explanation for why leftists groups constantly eat their own. And it’s all simplistic TV and movie tropes, but they’ve been around a long time and there is deep exposure from a very early age.
