What's your gameplan here? Make things as horrible as possible as quickly as possible so that people are made to act out of desperation?

Capitalism creates it's own innate contradictions, you should be doing whatever you can to build a revolutionary base, so that when things go to shit and they will, inevitably, people will have you to run towards. if you don't have a revolutionary party they will run to Tucker Carlson.

You know very well yourself that there is no revolutionary party in USA. What do you possibly hope to achieve by accelerationism? I can understand why non-Americans would want for your country to just disappear, but come on that's just reactionary logic. It's also unrealistic and won't happen.

I honestly have no clue what the heck is going to happen with the US, but if the only way you can see a revolution happening is by pushing people into the fire forcefully, then nothin good is going to happen.

How do you get acceleration from what I said? The game plan is to organize a revolutionary party. People are already in the fire telling them to get back in the frying pan is psychotic.

Trump didn't win the election the Democrats lost it. All they had to do was promise to end the genocide and they would have won. Fuck the democrats. Why are you standing up for genocidiars?

Can't you see they want you to be angry and go online to argue with people instead of being out there and helping your own people become independent? Because I believe if American people had a say in their country's destiny I don't think most of you want to do these horrible things the government is doing.

But you need to start supporting each other more to accomplish that. Let go of the barbed wires loaded with arsenic are dividing you. Radically support your country to make it stop what it's doing.

Again I don't see how voting democrat is supposed to make things better. The guy in the video's only response to the bipartisan drive towards blatant fascism is to vote for the party the is slightly less open about it. If anything good is going to happen americans need to recognize that the democrats are the problem as much as the republicans are. They are a ratcheting mechanism. The republicans make things worse and the democrats fortify those gains into the new normal while the republicans prepare the next offensive. If we want to make ground we have to attack the defensive lines not just defend against the offensive side. We will never win if we keep supporting the enemies defensive forces like they are on our side.

I 100% agree that americans need to be supporting one another but the democrats are the enemy of the working class every bit as much as the republicans.

I'm telling you that you should be using any power you have, to build your own power, and eventually you'd be able to overthrow your current one. As long as you can avoid becoming a monster yourself in the process.

But it's like you've been conditioned to act like a spring board to escape this simple truth and I don't blame you for it.

Like we're dealing with real life here, not star wars, in the movies the rebels get help from some mysterious benevolent force, that help is never coming if you're counting on that. USSR tried to be that, for that it was killed.

Exactly the democrats are not going to save anyone. You can't vote the american empire away it needs to be dismantled from the inside (because it has nukes) and you cannot do that at the ballot box. Americans need to organize alternative party structures that can mobilize the masses against the 2 sided fascist party of democrats and republicans.

Asking people to vote for the democrats is reactionary. It is asking people to remember the good old days under sleepy joe and forget that his real name is genocide joe. Its calling people with the siren's song of the first back president obama and forgetting he did drone strikes on weddings and was called "the deporter in chief."

The democrats do not make things better. Nobody should be wasting their breath saying "vote democrat." If they want things to get better they should be telling people to organize to resist fascism and telling them that voting doesn't make things better.

Yes, but you're not wrong. It's not like I'm disagreeing with you. I don't see voting as anything more than a mechanism to count public opinion, so by itself it kind of really useless, it's just an idea.

What I'm hoping to see, now that we know nobody cares about us and people are waking up to this reality, we'll start uniting against capitalism and use whatever our material conditions allows us to do, to beat them. Instead of going to the past and trying to re-invent Marxism we should be supporting already existing projects. Learning from them.

I'm personally invested in solving issues like unwanted pregnancies and alcoholism as well as I'd like to see cleaner biosphere in my lifetime. Not that I'm counting on it, but I will die trying to make it work.
