In the leadup to an election is when there is maximum ability to influence the policies of the candidates. At no time before or after this period will any individual voter have more influence. Libs could have joined in with the uncommitted movement months ago and continually demanded an arms embargo on israel as a precondition for their votes. They could even have fucking lied and in their cowardly little hearts known that they were going to vote for the dems anyway. But no, even that small amount of effort was too much. Instead they immediately en masse announced their unconditional support for the dems and spent all their effort viciously attacking anybody who even mildly criticized their candidate. Absolutely useless dumb fucking crackers. I will not forgive them.

we really gotta start rethinking what propaganda is and how to attack it because the entire content delivery system most Americans are plugged right into, and most of the worlds lib brained treat hogs tbh - everything you consume, from entertainment to news to politics is designed to keep you fuckin' strapped in and, even if you can conceive of ideas and views outside of the approved norm, you lack the initiative to act upon them, be it through coercion, intimidation, mockery, misrepresentation - doesn't matter - information is centralized and monopolized - culture is centralized and monopolized - hell the main ways people meet and socialize are fucking centralized and monopolized - at no point is there even an insertion point for "palestinian lives matter" in the liberal-thought-stream. It's locked down.

We need a goddamn butlerian jihad istg

    What is it for you? Try to ask yourself thoughtfully, answer deeply what would make you start walking down a different road? Your own security dropping to zero? Things worsening such that the isolating tendencies of our culture begin to fail? Fear of the state giving way to the fear of what they enforce? What would it take to move your bar to a lower standard than, "social/material collapse"? is there a way you can get to it from where your life is now? If there's no easy road, can you find a difficult one?

    The main thing I can think of to get me down that road is to publicly call for the destruction of the United States and Israel so loudly and constantly that none of my friends or family want to associate with me, no employer wants to hire me, no landlord wants to rent to me, etc. Basically showing my power level in a way that causes me to become unpersoned to everyone except radicals.

    I'd also have to somehow be able to cope with this psychologically, something difficult for me because I'm already having trouble simply coping in my current hyper privileged life where I'm only ever handled with kids' gloves.
