Mormon Satanist. Transracial Socialist Workers Party Kopimist Monk. Debt-free. Alcohol-free. Drug-free. Caffeine-free. Over 45,000 downvotes, mocked, parodied, and bullied —all because I dare stand against the current Duopoly. Yet here I am, standing tall, defending worker’s rights. “Union!”
I ask again, do you support an immediate ceasefire?
And I said yes I do, but I still want Hamas defeated. And in a non-violent way, tho that is very unrealistic in today’s world.
If so how does that square with your ongoing support and promotion of an organisation, the US SWP, that is opposed to an immediate ceasefire?
Because I think the good things they do outweigh the disagreements I have with them. Now you may not, and that is totally your right.
But it’s my right to have my own opinions as well. Even if they differ from yours.
Just like many people who are voting for Harris, even tho they disagree with her on the current political problems and Hamas.
I like the SWP, and I am voting SWP. It’s that simple.
Which organization that I am supporting is against peace in the middle east?
I wish there was a ceasefire and that they could find peace.
I like the Socialist Workers Party.
Local and state elections are important, but presidential campaigns can bring attention to third-party issues that are often ignored by the major parties. Building from the bottom up and the top down simultaneously strengthens the movement and shows that third parties are serious about representing the working class at every level of government.
I’m hoping that the higher profile and positive support that De la Cruz’s campaign is getting, lets them focus on other elections after this election passes.
The idea that a third party isn’t a real choice under FPTP is a tactic used by the ruling duopoly to keep people feeling powerless. If we dismiss third-party candidates, we’re only allowing the same two parties to hold a monopoly on political power.
Real choice comes from breaking free of this system and standing up for the alternatives that truly represent us.
Meh, that’s how they make their money. Clicks and views.
I agree it’d be nice if they were a bit more creative though.
Once again, the duopoly strikes, proving they’re terrified of giving working people a real choice at the ballot box.
I actually agree with a lot of what you’re saying. Automation can be a fantastic thing if it’s used to benefit everyone, not just the capitalist class. The issue is not opposing automation but ensuring that the gains are shared fairly, so no one is left behind.
The problem isn’t automation itself; it’s how it’s being used. Workers are being replaced without any thought for their well-being or fair compensation.
We need to fight for a system where automation frees us up for better lives, not just fatter profits for the few.
We should be fighting for a reasonable share of the fruits of our community. If your job is automated, you should get a share of the company profits for life and then happily leave for new and different work, not try to prevent the automation in the first place.
Yep, I want that for us too!
Yep!
Ironic statement since you’ve been banned from this sub now.
Maybe instead of post content like it’s a part time job
Nah, I’ll keep posting content–especially socialist content. Thanks!
I poked you because I knew bans upset you,
Bans don’t upset me at all. I didn’t even know I had a ban, and it was for one day; the ban was over before I even knew about it.
My post history is public. In fact, here’s a direct link to it: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts
See all those socialist posts? Man, that must really bum you out since you like to pretend that I’m a Trump voter. lmao
And unlike you, I don’t care about downvotes. My posts are public, I have nothing to hide, and I stand by everything I’ve said.
You seem to be obsessed about my posts though. I’m about to post some more too. So be sure to update your stats about me that you post over and over! :)
Plus I’m not obligated to explain any of my stances to you. :)
Actually, it takes no effort to respond to you. Because you stalk me and post nonsense. Pretty easy to respond to that.
Lol 3 net upvotes.
Which counts as more than your downvotes. So yeah, I am laughing. Keep trying, I’ll keep laughing.
Then it must really bum you out that the article has some upvotes in this community. Add that to the fact that I give zero shits about what you think, must bum you out even more.
How many usernames are you gonna log in under so that you can give it more downvotes?
And you know, there’s that whole thing where ya admitted you keep an online diary about me.
Keep stalking, but I’ll keep posting.
Gotta say it was pretty delicious when you got banned from your own sub
THAT is the ban you are talking about?! I got a one-day ban because I posted too many socialist articles to that socialist community. I think it was like 4 articles.
I didn’t even know I was banned from it and now it’s already over! If you wouldn’t have told me, I wouldn’t even know.
And you know what’s even funnier? That you went stalking and searching for me to find out where I was banned from! LMAO
Let’s go ahead and put in the pic of that big bad ban in here for everyone can see what you are going on about:
Gotta say it was pretty delicious when you got banned from your own sub
The only place that I know of that I’ve been banned from is your weird instance I never heard of and never visited, and you thought permabanning me would be funny. Which it is, because I would never go there anyway.
Considering that you have multiple usernames and you track me across several posts/communites to stalk me, and the fact that you admitted you keep a diary about me; I can’t take anything you say seriously.
I also know why you are so mad at me now! At first, I thought it was because I posted third party news. But that was so strange that you would stalk me just because of that. That was just too over the top.
But it’s from my very first days on here when I poked fun at incels who had AI girlfriends. YOU were that guy who couldn’t let it go!!! You were very upset. Remember that?!
All because I said having an AI girlfriend is creepy. But you also worship the duopoly, so it all kind of makes sense. lolololol
Oh, I like that wording. Thanks for this! Great post too.
