“I’ll probably get canceled for this, but whatever,”
“Antifa wants you to WASH your PENIS”
“In this political climate, you can’t even”
They are so afraid, that they’re compared to a political party capable of killing millions (a specific obscure one from the late 1930s, early 1940s). The only people they fear to that extent is usually the DPRK. All I’m saying is that I don’t remember the last time a politician mentioned organized labor, but there’s a shit ton of fear regarding the blue haired college student. Organizers might want to consider this underutilized resource as a medusa’s head against opponents of labor.
That’s because everybody knows deep down inside that being a leftist in the imperial core really only means you want social justice stuff, that leftists only realized organized labor even existed like 4 years ago and that even today they will distance themselves from organized labor at the drop of a hat if it’s even vaguely insinuated by anyone that something they want is in conflict with any traditionally social justicey pet cause at all.
This is why leftists in America have such an easy time imagining the concept of “right wing socialists” but consider the idea of “right wing social justice advocates” to be paradoxical, because in America, being left wing is the same as being a social justice person.
Social justice shouldn’t even be cringe. “These SNOWFLAKES think CRUDE OIL SPILLS are the cause of statistically significant rises in cancer and all case morbidity to this DISENFRANCHISED community? Don’t they know that this community is no angel???” would be absolutely unbearable as a talking point in a sane country
A woman college student with colored hair represents everything they hate: women, rebellion against gender norms, and education that doesn’t blow smoke up your ass about how great america is. What the right is going to have to do is get more friendly with actual labor, not boaters or labor aristocrats, but actual minimum wage workers. They need to do this before they wake up and realize that the women with the blue hair is fighting for your rights.

This is the thing I keep thinking about, I tend to think that the right wing in this country is ascendant and will eventually overtake everything else but how are they even going to fucking do that when hating poor people is baked into their ideology

No idea. I’m mostly going off what Matt has been saying, that the republicans will become the new working class party. Tricky to do when their base is boaters and labor aristocrats.
I don’t see this being a problem. There are some repubs who are working class people upset that they aren’t being forced to work until they die of disease. It sure seems like there exist a hefty portion of the US who would happily march in contrast to their desires and interests. As long as dems act like fucking liberals you can be the party that owns the libs.
T hey only need about 1/3 of the country to support them. Less if they have those in power behind them.
That’s not hard when you consider not even half are Vaxx’d in america.
Gonna be real hard to do when they don’t understand what a working class person is. In their view, the blue-haired Starbuck’s barista taking home minimum wage, or the kid at Wholefoods packing groceries, or public school teachers are not working class. Only blue-collar types can be working class, because only those forms of labor count as “work”. Dehumanizing yourself for 12 hours a day, six days a week isn’t work unless you get a callous on your hands from working outside. Ironically, it’s those blue-collar physical labor jobs that tend to be the most unionized and thus have less to demand. Of course, the validity of all the backbreaking physical labor in the world gets instantly thrown out the window if it’s perormed by an illegal immigrant under near-slavery to pay off transport debts to be smuggled into the US.
What’s that? Contradictions? Nawww
Mike Rowe and his consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
:gulag: for that despicable piece of shit
has me thinking about when the state of Georgia passed an immigration law with enough teeth that a season’s crops rotted in the fields
Alabama did the same. They do this shit all the time. The Mexican people, and the many Central Americans who are confused for Mexicans, have been utterly dehumanized by America to the point where we will pay people pennies to risk arrest and deportation just so we can have some fucking peaches
sometimes I consider dying my hair blue to become less approachable to chuds. I’m white, so they assume I’m with them sometimes.
can you please censor the w word :soviet-pout: you wouldn’t want to trigger me before trigonometry
sorry, colonially advantaged(lol, like my ancestors weren’t colonized.)
I have a green mohawk and can confirm, people tend to leave me alone. It’s nice. Having a resting scowl helps with that.
Have you ever considered becoming a Jojo character?
brb dying my hair blue to own the chuds
Noooooooo Kestrel is contrutin to my heckin white geneciderinoooooooooo! I won’t be able to breeeeeeeeeeeed if you convince women to do that instead of being my qt3.14 tradcore waifu
I’m pretty trad-ish, I like tweed, skirts, shirtwaist dresses, etc, but the way those types of guys talk about that aesthetic poisons it a bit.
