      they have, insistently. and you literally don’t know me.

      look into the history of leftist movements, and don’t be an asshole.

        they have, insistently.

        Where?

        A few people trying to try something doesnt mean they succeeded at trying said things.

        I mean, here we are on lemmy where people insist on nonsensical revolutions and have hated the idea of working to change parties; the only pragmatic solution, for ever.

        look into the history of leftist movements, and don’t be an asshole.

        Calling me an asshole implicitly, after asking me to make your argument for you is actual asshole behaviour.

          what do you mean where bro. it’s everywhere. south america had a pink wave, and it’s going through another of sorts atm. it’s your continent, how do you not know that. the US is very much biased to the far right, but it’s common in the rest of the world for demsocs to pop up.

          entryism has a long history of not going well, either.

          look things up instead of being contrarian and coming here just to get angry with people.

            I don’t think further conversation on this chain will be productive. Spouting irrelevant rhetoric with strenuous relations while completely neglecting any of the points I’ve made can only go so far.

            Also, to call me a contrarian, while being unable to acknowledge that you have a severe marketing issue I think is a great microcosm of the attitudes here.

            You feel that being angry and isolated enough will somehow spread change, forgetting that you’re probably in the sub 1% in terms of groups of people, and haven’t made a dent into the other 99%

              i literally answered your question very directly and specifically. i cited a rich historical example you could look up and see for yourself.

              you too have to want to have a conversation. i agree this chain will not be productive anymore, have a nice day.

      Communists have successfully created socialist states through revolution. Throwing socialist states under the bus backfires.
