    1. I’m not a liberal

    2. I don’t consider them to be more valuable

    All I’m saying is that if we’re measuring the degree of the slide into fascism, one side is significantly more accelerationist about it. 10x is nothing to sniff at. I know ICE is just one symptom of the problem. Are we going to cherry pick symptoms of fascism, now?

    I’m all for a socialist revolution in the US.

    I also value nuance in the conversation about the state of things.

    One of the more likely paths to community building in the states is through the union movement, so electing the people spending 10x as much to physically assault the working class and actively grinding down any protections unions have is, uh, still pretty bad.

      Don’t care what you call yourself, I’m going off what you actually say.

      I don’t consider them to be more valuable

      Your statements make it undeniably obvious that you do.

      All I’m saying is that if we’re measuring the degree of the slide into fascism, one side is significantly more accelerationist about it.

      See? You immediately demonstrated that you don’t consider Palestinian lives to be as valuable as Americans. That’s the only way you could think that the Democrats are not already fully slid into fascism.

      I also value nuance in the conversation about the state of things.

      Oh please, you have no nuance here, just chauvinism.

      One of the more likely paths to community building in the states is through the union movement, so electing the people spending 10x as much to physically assault the working class and actively grinding down any protections unions have is, uh, still pretty bad.

      Lol, as if the Democrats are friends of organised labour. What a fucking joke. You’re also, once again, showing how little you value the lives of foreigners. Your union isn’t worth the lives of half a million Palestinians.
