I think a lot of liberals are quietly looking at the militancy coming from the community in awe, since we’re one of the only forces actively resisting Trump in a real way. Many white working liberals feel safer with the brown working class than they do with their own white capitalist class, which is a good thing.
Not sure why some conservatives are starting to defect on this issue though. Maybe they’re nervous about losing super-exploitable labor.
I think at some point, the white people I see attend our actions will be less Communist and anarchistic, but this is a good thing because that means the masses are starting to be politically activated. They can adopt more correct views with time and attention from cadres.
I think in a lot of cases it's that they never really put real thought into their support for mass deportation, or if they did it was based on a childish understanding of immigration being millions of criminal immigrants coming here to do crimes. Now they're seeing mass raids, snatching randos on the street, no focus on criminals, maybe their family members, neighbors, or workers grabbed - people they thought were "the good ones". The right wingers really don't think shit out, I got into an argument with a weed dealer not too long ago who was in support of these raids and had never considered that he's a fucking criminal who could be subject to birthright citizenship revocation and deportation to a prison camp in some other nation to rot and die.
It's the recurring thing where they have zero empathy until it impacts them personally. Dick Cheney's gay rights etc etc
I think it is similar to how support for Zionism has dropped, even in the islamophobic west, despite the world's most sophisticated propaganda machine's best efforts.
Supporting Zionism when your image of Zionists is respectable men in suits talking about democracy and your image of Palestinians is cartoonish scary Arabs using scary Arabic words. Supporting Zionism is a completely different thing when you have seen Zionists proudly showing off the lingerie they've looted from someone they've murdered.
There will always be horrible evil people but when it comes to it, actually violence is off-putting to normal people. I think showing how the sausage is made, the violence, the hateful cruelty, is always going to be a very effective antifascist propaganda technique.
I'm sure all of the people who are surprised by this would have been a-okay if they didn't have to be confronted with it. Like you said, seeing the sausage get made makes the pretend game of right wing politics harder to maintain for a lot of people.
I'm literally talking about people I know, I'm not guessing. I'm not saying all chuds are like this, but this is definitely happening to plenty of them.
If you think all right wingers are incapable of ever believing anything other than their bullshit, why bother with organizing or being communist? You're a political calvinist in that case, people are either right or wrong and they'll never change.
What compassion are you talking about? I described their motivation if they're shocked by this.
Remember we're trying to build communism not do liberalism.
uhh, so I didn't show any compassion and you were just mad I said thinking right wingers are unredeemable means you're a political calvinist? to be clear I still think that.
This is silly, have a really lovely day and maybe consider that being a communist means convincing people who are right wing that they're wrong. Bye bye
