New account but I've been using burner accounts and lurking since the sub got banned. I've been seeing all the standard liberal brainworms again for the first time since reddit-logo and everytime it's an account from another federation. I was tepidly against federation at first but this has been entertaining, like the old days of pigpoop people who wandered into the sub.

I gotta imagine this will only last another week before everyone defederates us, but let's enjoy it for now.

Nah man. You're doing what the white moderates did to the civil rights activists, and you're doing what the liberals did to the lgbt activists.

You're claiming that we'd be more effective if we toned it down, dialed it back a bit, only pursued things in a lukewarm way.

You are devoted more to order instead of justice.

The best approach is the one that works, the one that motivates a movement, the one that creates something. That's what we did, and I regret absolutely none of it. You should absolutely read MLK's letter from a birmingham jail, it's quite relevant here.

You won't like this comparison, but I say it is extremely apt to compare you to the white moderate, people who are sympathetic in the abstract but judgmental of the tactics deployed in actual campaigns.
