I respect you for doing it, but the .ml at the end of their name really just means you're wasting your effort.
None the less, good on you for fighting the good fight. I'm sick and tired of people pushing powerlessness and apathy under the guise of good will.
I don't care to convince them. Every opportunity we have to counter the false narratives meant to divide the working class, is an opportunity for you, myself and everyone else provide our comrades who have not yet woken up to the programming the ability to:
Recognise agents, bad actors and bots.
Give them the tools to counter them and drive home the message of unity. We need to stop playing party politics and realise the struggle has always been up vs down, left vs right is just how the owners of our media push us against eachother.
Thank you for contributing to the wider conversation.
Pushing powerlessness? What are you doing to stop this? I'm with DSA and fighting IRL to stop this. Have you organized any protests? Have you phone banked anybody? Have you distributed literature? Have you actually gone out and talked with real human beings about what struggles they are feeling?
Not American, and yes to most of that.
The "both sides" argument is a dishonest one aimed at making people feel powerless. It can fuck right off.
Have you run for local office? That's the only thing you can do that will actually change anything.
lol no direct action is a thing
Yes. A useless thing.
