>>2255603 552 posts and 117 image replies omitted.>>2263214>All written before unions threw in their lot with Bakuninites and monarchists to generate fascismNot all unions are of the same quality. Some unions are reactioanry and some aren't. Just say you're an accelerationist who thinks total immiseration is needed to create revolutionary conditions and that's why you oppose unions, not because they're "fascist."
The same people who come in here and screech "you're a radlib if you think X is fascist" will turn around and say "unions are fascist actually."
most self defeating place on the internet
>>2263223I cannot stand people who are clearly replying to somebody but don't tag the post they are replying to
>I cannot fucking stand Marxists that view his works as religious doctrine.point to the post you religiously believe is doing this
>>2263354the reason as to why it's not treated the same as "moron" is due to the existing usage. it still exists as a label despite whether or not one is using it to refer to a disabled person in particular.
it can also be used when someone suspects an otherwise able-bodied person to exhibit traits of an intellectually disabled person, for instance.
the existence of this label doesn't vanish due to particulars.
>>2263363I see your point but it's not analogous. Queer was reclaimed by LGBTQ+ people. It wasn't -just- used into normalization.
I'll be honest I have autism (learning not intellectual disability though) and I've seen other fellow autistic people use it to describe themselves, but it was only "high functioning" people. I've never seen anything with intellectually disabled people remotely like what happened with "queer"
>>2263361I just think it's kind of a nothing issue and scolding people for their use of the word in their day to day vocabulary does more harm than good, because people don't like being nagged by strangers over their vocabulary.
Reminds me when I started to befriend a trans girl in a discord I'm in. I, without thinking, pinged her with a "dude check this out" to show her a funny tiktok. The response was a very obnoxious "don't call me dude what the fuck is wrong with you do you realize how offensive that is?" and I was completely dumbfounded that someone would get offended over something that petty. I gave a basic apology and dropped the convo. Never talked to that person again because it's just no longer fun being friends with someone like that. Those types are never satisfied no matter how much you bend over backwards to appease their insecurities.
Call me a bigot or whatever but this is the view of probably 90% of proletarians.
>>2263372You seem fatigued but why throw in the towel now? Disabled and trans people are more vulnerable now more than ever and giving up now just helps this fascist machine move along. I get what you're saying but if anything I'd look for a reserve of strength and understanding now more than ever.
I'm not even trying to flame I just see this sort of take everywhere now. It mirrors establishment dems even but I always took them for snakes
>>2263407I work six or seven days a week, depending on the week.
I still find and make time to organize, too.
Turns out I'm not only the only leftist here, I'm also the only proletarian.
