So, many more people are raised right wing which may mean that way more people in the future are going to be right wing.
ideology is not stored in the balls
This needs to be on a mug or something

Just kidnapped like 16 fascists (babies). Raising them in a shed in the back. Got a VHS player with soviet cartoons in there. I got us covered.
Fucking god damn it. Actually. Just checked on 'em and one of them snuck in fascist media (COD: Black Ops). My plan has failed. I told them they could only watch Revolutionary Girl Utena blu-rays on that PS3.
Leftoid Praxis v2.0: Breedageddon commences. It’s out only hope, I guess.
Just built a second shed next to the first one where I’ll house the new children and succeed this time.
Thank you for your services, bugman.
Gave up having any sort of personal ethics, mental fortitude, or will against my adversaries. Going full bugmode now.
Great site tagline
We can fix them
No, it’s naive to think children follow what they’re taught by their parents. If that were true, we’d still have slavery and feudalism.
Equally naive to think they aren’t highly influenced by them
Well… not everyone was raised to be pro-slavery and many people hated the monarchy. It is naive to think that the way one is raised has no sway in the way people end up being. The way and ideas people grow up with shape the way one thinks. Sure, many overcome it, but many don’t. And the more propaganda increases in the future, the harder it will be to pierce through the eco chamber.
You missed the point. People back then didn’t get raised with liberal values like we do now, and yet we now have those liberal values widespread. People weren’t raised irreligious and yet atheists proliferate. Reality and especially the crushing reality of Capitalism often radicalizes people away from their childhood propaganda.
I think that I am just skeptical since I have a lot of religious right wing family members that no matter how much capitalism and their country kicks them to the floor, they still spout patriotic, religious, homophobic, transphobic and class traitor nonesense. And from my own journey to leftism, it takes a lot of effort and education to reprogram a brainwashed mind.
Good thing politics aren’t genetic

Don’t forget Castro’s Nazi applauding son
But wouldn’t Zelensky’s grandfather have lived in Ukraine whilst it was under Soviet control? He wouldn’t have had much choice in that case.
Look at the nazi that was just recently honored in Canada. They had a choice.
He was drafted, yes, but it’s not like there were no defecting fascists or other such factions. If he was Jewish (idk Zelensky’s specific ancestry and Judaism is traditionally matrilineal), then he probably sided with the Soviets because the Soviets sought to protect racial minorities from fascist butchers.
Even the “left” opposition of the Makhnovists had a real problem with members murdering Jews and other minorities. The “left” opposition otherwise (like whatever Sholem was doing before he left) had a very small presence.
Nope. For us to win we must get converts. If it’s just 3% more or whatever it makes little difference.
Think of it this way: if you have two kids and a 100% success rate at raising little socialists, you’ve only “replaced” yourself and nothing more. A good organizer will radicalize hundreds of people over their lives and have an effect of creating more organizers that will do the same.
That “good organizer” sounds like a magician to me. I cannot even convert my parents.
Oh, comrade, don’t count yourself out for that. My parents are too far gone for me to bother with, but they’re in their 60’s (I would say “retirement age” but lol, not happening in
).You have to triage your efforts:
- Firm Supporters
- Soft Supporters
- Soft Opposition
- Firm Opposition
Focusing on moving people up this ladder is what keeps me going. If I can take some radlib off the sidelines, make them active agitators, and bring them into the Firm Supporters category, that’s a win. If I can convert a hardline liberal/conservative to being on the sidelines instead of actively opposing us, that’s a win. You have to do what you can with what you have. None of us are perfect organizers, but maybe we can get a little closer to that goal.
It’s only about 2-4 people per year if you start at 20 and organize for 50 years. This is very achievable if you put yourself in scenarios to meet people that are “almost there”. People that like unions, marginalized people trying out community organizing, parties/orgs that allow libs and baby leftists in but don’t let them dominate, orgs that table at political rallies and protests (competently), holding events where you invite the community to watch a movie or hear a speaker. Party-building stuff, basically.
Edit: oh and also be ready for emergency mobilization and recruitment. Never be caught off-guard when something like George Floyd’s murder happens. Libs will take over and sheepdog if you don’t (intelligently) insert yourself and work with your coalitions. This means being part of coalitions before the big events hit.
An agitator’s job is not to convert but to sow the seeds. Every crack in capitalism is another place to put a seed and “That’s capitalism for you!” is a seed that can be cast every day. Just keep pointing out the contradictions of capitalism and let people convert themselves.
Nah, material conditions will radicalise them. “Your children will be communists”
I am absolutely not worried about people’s personal choice to have kids or not. I am worried about a how much “antinatalist” rhetoric there is amongst what is considered the left, which is actually just recycled malthusian and neo fascist talking points. I am worried about how many people can’t have kids not because they chose not to, but because they think that they can’t afford children.
The right wing cultists having families of seven kids are a very small minority. Most people with right wing political views simply don’t want to do that. In most western or industrialised societies, people are still having less kids on average, regardless of political views.
they think they can’t afford them
I am pretty sure they don’t just “think” it, but they actually can’t afford them under our current system
The bourgeoisie will never struggle to have kids, that’s kinda the most significant materialist factor for any kind of difference in birthrates across ideological lines.
Antinatalism should be a ban on sight. It’s completely reactionary trash on par with denying the existence of enbies.
As someone that grew up being groomed to be a right wing christian, no.
I am one of 3 children raised to be right wing christian and 2 of us are tankies and one is a hippy.

I don’t know for sure about the likelihood of chud ideology transmission from one generation to another, but I can personally vouch for coming from a glaringly chud biological family where no one still alive in it is someone that I maintain contact with.
Leftists kids became neoliberal? Is that even possible?
Mayor Pete’s dad was a Marxist scholar who translated Gramsci’s prison notebooks into English.
Who is Mayor Pete?
The US Secretary of Transportation, former mayor of South Bend Indiana, McKinsey ghoul, probable spook, and neoliberal poster child. He is the sticker someone else replied to you with.

???
How is wondering if other people can afford kids since I cannot, fascist?
I think you might be confusing this with your other post?
if i could have kids id have 2 million of them
Not a fan of this anti-natalist garbage. Also, politics aren’t genetic.
This isn’t antinatalism, this is more like eugenics
Babe wake up new great replacement dropped
yeah I’m not buying into great replacement tbh

There are always stupid people in the world but human empathy is actually increasing with time. Today’s children aren’t as hateful and intolerant as their parents.
have you seen them green bubble shame?
What is that?
Green bubbles are usually spam messages and bots though 😂
please be joking
Nah, because I only have 1 friend who texts me SMS and they use iPhone. The rest text me either on Facebook messenger or Signal
