they are also doing a big push right now to set up a Palestinian “state” with no sovereignty run by Palestinian Authority (who everyone in Palestine hates). That’s why France, Canada, England, etc. all are suddenly talking about recognizing Palestine “with conditions” (no Hamas, surrender all arms).

This is part of a last ditch effort by the west to settle this colonizing “peacefully” in a political/diplomatic way before Israel finishes the extermination by force. It’s the “good cop” option.

Where did I say I am against all electoralism? Reread my comments. I’m against it inside the imperial core

The us elections don’t matter because nobody good can ever be elected, as it is a farce and theater to cover up the actual leaders - the bourgeoisie. And the reason it differs from other capitalist nations like Iran is that there is no National Bourgeois in America that could be temporarily allied with to defeat the comprador class/imperialists, because we are the imperialists themselves and the entire bourgeois is in singleminded alignment.

Iran is not in the empire, its elections are real. Try again

I personally wish you would shut the fuck up about elections in the empire and get to work on actual revolutionary programs

Elections outside the empire are relevant because socialism and anti-imperialism can actually happen via the ballot box. It cannot inside the core.

Yeah Ukraine is just having acute manpower shortages despite supposedly having a million man army for no reason in particular

We wonder why we don’t have a ton of posters from the global south here, look no further. Arrogant American scolding and condescending someone and defending Liberal Zionism in order to shield a social chauvinist. You drive people away with this exhausting horseshit

And how did that entryism and reformism work out for him?

Just call me a tankie already. It’s on the tip of your tongue

If only mayors had some sort of power over the police force. Alas…

Say you are a tailist and be done with it. The carceral state is not popular. We have the winning hand.

Ukrainian losses exceed 600,000

Everyone who doesn’t do DSA electoral reformist entryism is a DOOMER. The ONLY WAY FORWARD IS MINE

Turns out it takes a long time to churn through a million Ukrainian conscripts

Elections in global south countries actually mean something

so interesting that these radlibs don’t notice their arguments are literally identical to the ones Democrats use while vote shaming the left. We are just “ultras” for insisting on principles.

and now he is supporting the mass incarceration system and cop cartels by refusing to attack them and backpedaling on his previous correct stances to appease the center. How can we trust anything he says? When it’s popular, he’s a radical. Then later when he gets pushback from the center or right, he gives in immediately. Why believe anything he says?

He should have went off about how the NYPD is a massive bloated organization, and how America has the highest incarceration rate on Earth. Go on the offensive. The fact that he instead immediately defers to tacking to the center and backpedaling instead of going on the attack on an issue we are 100% correct on and have easy rhetorical victories within is a very very worrying sign. Usually opportunists don’t start selling out until they are actually elected, guess he’s getting a head start.

The worst part isn’t even his opportunism and the fact he’s going to become AOCIA 2.0. That’s expected and priced in. It’s that he drags a huge chunk of the western left along with him, apologizing for him and defending him. Just stop defending this shit. It’s making you a worse person and corrupting your politics. Condemn it.

Also, he’s a mayor. He’s never going to arrest Bibi or any other powerful zionists. He doesn’t have that power, it’s not his jurisdiction, so it’s easy to spout radical rhetoric when he will never have to back it up. Whereas he actually has power to struggle against the cop cartel that runs NYC, and there he shirks and gives in.

yeah that’s a sad story and all, but I’ll be a little busy reflecting on the fact he won on the back of anti-Iraq War sentiment and anti-Bush policies, but by all means keep playing with that crystal ball -you in 2008

Stabbed in the back, etc etc

This isn’t “peer” warfare anymore though. Russia outguns the Ukrainians by a ratio of 10:1 and has air superiority

The ratio is actually something like 1:8, but in the opposite direction that the westoids claim

Is it “winning” when your “guy” is going to sell you out, bit by bit transforming into Nancy Pelosi? Is it winning when he drags a good chunk of leftists along with him back to DNC entryism and DSA idealism?
