Mali and Burkina Faso banned Americans a few days ago. What with Maduro’s kidnapping, it looks like that decision payed off in more ways than they might have anticipated!

Good. Fuck America. No one should trust us.
We suck 😭
Do something
I love this comment. It’s like asking an ant to hold back the tide. The fact it’s said so unironically makes it better.
US imperialism is a paper tiger. Grow a spine and organise.
I always laugh at this line. What does that make Maduro? What does it make the USSR? What of the hundreds of colonized nations?
Victims of a mere paper tiger, I suppose.
Do you really know what we need a spine for? All we do is waste away “organizing” over bullshit. Uninspired, insipid fucking protests, milquetoast bargaining meetings, blah blah blah mutual aid drama drama tenderqueer drama. We aren’t going to save anyone from anything. Not ourselves and not anyone abroad. We will exploit and betray our own sympathies, nothing more. Do not make the error of blaming imperial citizens for not defeating their own champions. We aren’t going to be guilted into dismantling our empire. Do you not know the mountain of skulls we had to pile just to lay it’s foundation? We have only begun to destroy the world as nothing but a paper tiger.
The fact that that user recognises themselves as part of the country that has been nothing but a cancer in the world, and dislikes it, is already a lot and should be praised. They overcame the propaganda and used their minds and hearts to examine the world. 👍
We appreciate it, but it materially doesn’t help us outside of the US and it also doesn’t help y’all inside either
Better than nothing and much better than the opposite, but that’s fair.
It’s literally nothing, and Americans thinking dumping their feeling into the cyber abyss is “doing something” is a huge part of the problem.
You’re too negative. You have a country full of people who think it’s okay to carpet bomb and pillage foreign nations because MURRICAFUCKYEAH, anyone who has fought against the indoctrination and thought just enough not to go straight to Hell has certainly done… something. Can’t expect everyone to go full John Brown.
No, it’s asking an ant to stand up against a bunch of grasshoppers.

Hey brother, this is a fucking ML website correct? So imagine this shit…
MANY ANTS COOPERATE, to take on some grasshoppers.
Jesus fucking christ, american “leftists” are so pathetic.
I’m not sure who you are responding to.
Me or @corsicanguppy.
Corsicanguppy was asked to something.
Corsicanguppy was being defeatist.
I told him to be like the ant against the grassphopper.
You’re saying that like ants, they should cooperate.
To that I say, right on! That’s the spirit!
If you are so baffled as to why your big brain advice isn’t helping then why don’t you have the sense to meaningfully adjust your expectations?
I don’t get what you mean? Do you mean I should adjust to celebrate when american “leftists” justify slaughter?
Is expecting “leftists” in america to organize is too much now?
Is my bar of expecting basic fucking human decency from americans too high?
Do you fucking hear yourself? Pathetic doesn’t begin encapsulate it. The justifications you tell yourself and lie you are living sickens me.
Americans won’t save you. Get over it.
If you want to stay in the nursery and cry that no one will play pretend with you, then go ahead. I don’t care.
Yeah, the self-flagellation, defeatism, and guilt are just the ego flaring up in response to reality contradicting the propagandized view of burgerland which we each must destroy in our own minds. None of the three are helpful, yet it seems to be all we have at the moment.
Still hoping votes can make a difference this year. Not ready to Luigi anybody.
Votes aren’t going to do shit for imperialism, that’s bipartisan. You also don’t need to Luigi people. Instead, you can organize in real life with a socialist party, and if the conditions for revolution arise, take part in that.
Luigi is easy to understand. Voting is easy to understand. When people say “organize in real life” what exactly do you mean? Picnics?
I mean joining an org like PSL, training and studying as an activist and directly participate in organizing outreach, educating others, forming protests, and more.
Voting doesn’t work when the candidate needs campaign money to get voted for.
If the candidate needs campaign money to get voted in, then the candidate will automatically be corrupt,
as no one is going to freely give someone lots of money unless they expect something back from it,
and if candidates need to be on tv and pay good money for being on tv,
then the candidates choices are to be corrupt or to be unknown
and you will need to organize a different system of electing leaders.
So you swallow?
Agreed from Canada!
