The only thing this plan would do is give us free unlimited clean energy if we hook a turbine up to Marx's grave to harness him spinning in it. 
"Why yes, I will align myself with the petty-bourgeois facists in order to advance the interests of the working class" - a serious theory reader lmao
Hey now, I didn't say these were serious thoughts! 😢
I'm sentencing you to read theory until you know how many yards of linen there are in a coat 
leave entryism to the "experts" (trotskyists). It also offends me that you make Carhartts out to be reactionary coats. It's apart of my working-class chic
This is how we get shit like Larouchites.
What a fascinating rabbithole you've cast me into!
The trueanon episodes on the topic are classics.
Ooo! I'll give it a listen.
It’s episode 176 for the first one (iirc, they have other episodes that cover larouche)
I agree actually. They're deep in the propaganda machine. You can say all the culture war bullshit and then take a "principled" Small Government stance and vote against government intrusion into people's lives and still come out fine. Throw a wrench into all their anti trans bullshit.
Then when they try to pass tax cuts for billionaires dive into populist rhetoric and claim you're for the working people and the coastal elites need to pay their fair share. Corporate tax cuts? Regulatory cuts? Fuck the woke companies.
Brother that's what I'm saying! Or just start a new party called the Real Republicans and say shit like "these Republicans have lost their values! They're not Real Republicans like us!"
They're not real Republicans like August Willich (actual)
We must reclaime what was appropriated from us! Take it alllll the way back. Also, one of the first Anti-Marx Republicans.
The problem though is the hoops you have to jump through before the GOP lets you on their ballot. If you haven't diddled any kids, good luck, you aren't free-speech enough for them
👀
I think the real leverage is to sneak leftist ideas into right-wing spaces without their knowledge they're left-wing. They take well to hating billionaires in favor of the working class. Encourage their positive traits. The original "rednecks" were striking miners.
People believe things more easily if it's coming from their in-group, so this idea kind of has legs.
Like if a Republican views you as some sort of commie he's not going to listen to much you say. But if he sees you and your friends as a bunch of fellow Real Americans, you can probably convince him of a lot of stuff.
I thought you meant like end the monarchy
Quietly putting my portable guillotine back into my backpack "yeah ha ha like we were gonna kill the king ha ha I mean but like what if we did ha ha wouldn't that be wild?"
I totally get where this come from it's the same immediately dismissible plan to become cops and clean it up from the inside. Tempting, but just doesn't work.
There have been a lot of solid critiques here of your unserious thought (which is a nice daydream as much as it is a terrible idea in reality) but I just have to add that "a dime a dozen" implies an abundance of something, which is why they're so cheap. Which is the opposite of what you were trying to say
If its cheap, it must be easy to imitate. If anything its been a fun exercise in thought!

"I'm just a regular working class person, and I think that the working people should own the land and the factories instead of a bunch of ivy league rich kids."
Seriously though you might be able to do something with this tactic if you had enough people but the national party would take notice and step in. It would be very funny to see that the Dems and Reps are so similar that DSA entryist types can use the same strategy in both parties, though.
Im sick of these woke liberals with their craft beer trying to tell me who’s a man and who’s a woman. It ain’t up to them. Every hard working American has a right to choose for themselves what gender they are.
Not just chuds wear Carhartt or Dickies. But you can absolutely use it to blend in if you get the ones with the American flag on it.
Oh trust me, I'm a keyboard cowboy by day but I do love some good utilitarian workwear. Everyone should have a nice speed suite. If you want an alternative suggestion might I show you to the Black Flag Under Armor collection, and maybe a fine pair of polarized Oakley sunglasses.
Oh yeah, gotta have those ugly ass Oakley's.
speed suit
Orpheus, it's your landlord. We're trapped in a cliche. Use your fake impossible magic to get us out of here.
I do fancy the red
Honestly I don't see any real difference between the 2 parties at this point, both are irredeemably fascist and no matter which party any of us were to run under we would have inevitably have to eventually reject and condemn the party leadership
If the DSA doing entryism within the Democratic party is alright then why would this be any worse? Either way the goal shouldn't be to help the party but to act like a parasite feeding on it
Hell we even have a perfect name we just have to go back to when the Republican party wasn't completely shit and reclaim the legacy that's already ours, John Brown Republicans
