You know, the types who think leftism is unrealistic and pure utopian idealist fantasy

I don't understand these types. The type that seem to sneer at the idea of making the world a good place. If it were up to them we wouldn't build shelter from the rain or invent cures for diseases. When the world is shitty, you make it less shitty, that's the whole point of life or you might as well be miserable and live like a cow who has made peace with the slaughterhouse instead of trying to escape it.

I'm tired of people who pathologise good things and have a weird boner for hardship

As someone who studied it, knew what needed to be done and than had to watch everyone just decide that it was easier to let it happen because the idea of ending capitalism is apparently not as realistic as collapsing the entire biosphere

yea
