Censorship in r/socialism kills any discussion of a topic that the far right would LOVE r/socialism users to believe: that not voting for Democrats will somehow help socialists, lol

Anti-Government Extremism and Normalized Misogyny: The Path of the Far Right in the U.S.

I fucking wish we lived in such a based timeline.

Sounds good to me, democrats have gone wacky.

I'd say that's putting it lightly.

Well yeah, even this post is an example. Socks ban evades and vote manipulates to get people to see this because he thinks we're all dumb and he's trying to save us from ourselves. Noble lies and ends justifying means. All the while whoring out to China with "green" energy, and big pharma with vaccines and the gender bending fad -- and maybe worst of all, silencing anyone who speaks out against it.

That subreddit believes Biden and other democrats are fascists.

Anyone right of Marx is a Nazi to those weirdos. Funny, their ideology is closer to fascism than 95% of republicans' ideologies. And they somehow manage to convince themselves that the Overton window has been moving to the right, despite nearly every metric showing it's going to the left.

Lookup the definition of the word fascist. Biden and the other dems are perfect examples of government teaming up with industry.

There is no far right lmao.

Normal people who know it took hundreds of years of work to get where we are think it's fucking stupid to break it for the feelings of some fags.

Wait until the system fails normal people and "far right" actually becomes a thing.

Far right would be people who want an absolute dictator or for the Queen to have had real final say in the laws of the UK.

All the other stuff comes flows from that ideal.

Things like racism and sexism are present on both wings just in different ways.

[–]NuclearBadger 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

To be right wing is almost akin to being in an ant colony. 1 ruler, anyone that doesn't work is left to die, anyone that isn't the same, culturally or racially, is exterminated.

That just doesn't happen in our countries.

Yet.

Follow the trail of breadcrumbs to that Socialist Alternative article, do a quick name check on the author, Keely Mullen, and you find her YouTube interview for the Privilege Project where she reveals her maternal ancestry, and tells you how much she hates being around White people.

That article she wrote is funny, as well. She mentions the most ominous far right demagogue yet:

Tim Pool is another figure that has risen to fame among young white men in particular. Pool is an extremely popular YouTuber who is regularly talking about an impending civil war in the U.S. and warning about trans “groomers.” Pool has 3.3 million subscribers on YouTube, the majority of whom are 18-35 year old white men.

PLZ ELI5 that title for me. My melon hurts!

Not voting Democrat will help socialists.

I'm not sure how voting Dem would help them at all.

They are to the right of the Tory party in the UK policy wise even if they talk woke.

    I believe Marx was more or less right on the money with his critiques of capitalism. To me thats his academic contribution, and its an important one.

    As far as Marx and Engels vision for political representation, I am not sold. Are you familiar with Kropotkin at all? He and Marx were the intellectual leaders of two factions of communist thought with quite different visions (Kropotkin's school of thought has now been termed 'anarcho-communism'). I think his prescriptive ideas are more sound and interesting than Marx's, who depends too much on a centralized state.

    I don't think I'm totally convinced by any of the solutions i've seen from anyone concerning capitalism/communism/socialism but he had some interesting ideas that I think are under appreciated and ignored by modern academia
