We fight for what we want

Sure you do buddy, how is that working out?

It's been working out when leftists are an actual option on the ballot. How has centrism been working out lately?

I’m critiquing their claim of fighting by shitposting on the internet, they’re not out there with a gun stopping fascists, so they can hardly claim to be fighting.

I’ve seen more of this type of accelerationist, cultist talk cropping up lately. As a leftist-liberal, I don’t think it’s mutually exclusive where we can’t be pushing for that incremental positive change while still wanting more.

The fact that over 50% of those on the right, who are in power, don’t want positive change at all -even that incremental change- is what is the worrying sign.

We should be pushing for progressives to be in office and implement these progressive policies at the state level, as it’s clear that we have a big up-hill challenge to get any progressive policies passed federally.

Nah I’m agreeing with you; I’m talking about the type of person you replied to though.
