Benjamin Netanyahu is under fire across the Israeli political spectrum for allowing the U.S. to reach a deal with Iran. “The state of Israel won the battle,” said Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid, but “Netanyahu lost the war.”
we are all still living in a capitalist hellhole where money is king but also scarce, and no one has time or money for a dignified life.
it’s not about the individual’s ideology, but what’s collectively forced upon us. it’s not surprising people are greedy and ignorant in a system that rewards it.
though being a big asshole doesn’t make you a good leftist when it’s all about fighting back, contradictions are common and have to be dealt with and ultimately material conditions determine how the fight is gonna be.
again, this can improve once we don’t have the source of that problem anymore.
my brother in christ, people are already fighting back, hard. the fact msm doesn’t show it should be telling for anyone paying half attention, most lack of knowledge about most successful action is carefully engineered too.
i’m assuming you are from the western imperial core, and that’s why you don’t see it, but if you are not it’s just a matter of joining them and start seeing for yourself. history shows again and again in a very straightforward and concrete way our lives improve quite a bunch every time we push back against capitalism. removing capitalism removes the systemic incentive for being an asshole.
i’ll say it again because it’s worth drilling into: it’s not about the character of individuals but how the system is collectively set up. mistakes and assholes and all manner of contradictions will always exist, a society where they are the ruling class doesn’t have to.
what have you done to fight back? are you unionized? if you know where thiel lives my assumption you are from the imperial core probably holds, right? it’s harder and people are much less committed. western marxism is much less effective, and systemic change won’t come from just one person working for a few years.
though that’s not really how it works in the first place, we ain’t going to end capitalism by luigi mangioning a few random billionaires. it historically takes a lot of sweat tears and blood and that should be expected.
it’s not about proving yourself to me or anyone, i’m just trying to understand.
you are not forced to take on arms and murder people and work 24-7 for abolishing capital. most people can’t, which is why you or most anyone else won’t break into peter thiel’s house to kill him unless very specific conditions are met. the sentiment is clearly there though.
turns out real socialism works very differently than that, much more like helping your fellows and building community.
and yes, i know exactly how it feels not to even be able to find work for who i am. but our only real obligation is to persist.
your story is strange, but it sounds like you need to find your place in the world before finding your way through trying to change it. which is ok, i need to find a bunch of stuff for myself too. all humans are fallible and political leaning is just a piece of the puzzle when it comes to that.
