    Wishing for the collapse of the current system is very leftist. In fact, you objectively can’t be considered leftist if you support anything about the imperialist, colonialist, capitalist US system. There are zero redeeming features about our nation. It should die.

          Just to be clear if you had a magic button that would result in guaranteed gradual reform if you pressed it. And not pressing it would result in collapse.

          You would press the button, right?

              How do you feel about democracies? Like say it post collapse and revolution. You ended up on top. Would you create a democracy?

                This may come as an absolute shock, but this is a post gleefully celebrating the idea of the downfall of a genocidal regime

                If you want to discuss anarchist theory, there are much better forums for that than 196. Too many libs here.

          Liberals themselves have told me:

          1. We are a “first past the post” electoral system. That alone should disillusion you of hope for any change through voting.

          2. Biden is “the most progressive president we’ve ever had.” This is probably sadly true, which again shows that anyone who cares about marginalized groups should hope for the collapse of such an outrageously atrocious system.

          Collapse is best. We should work towards collapse.

          Edit: Autocorrect sucks donkey ass

            i don’t think the left wing is best positioned to take power if there was a collapse

            i think a collapse would bring the us significantly more right wing

              Yeah we’re a nation of shit people overall. All the more reason collapse is best overall. I’m willing to suffer and die if it means Palestinians and immigrants can be spared

                  Let’s give the land back to the Native Americans then! Surely they can’t do worse than our inherently corrupt, atrocious system, right?

                  Certainly if we are “first past the post” and our biggest hope for change and “most progressive” president is a bigoted genocidaire, we’re better with them in charge, agreed?

                    certainly sir right you are

                    but, just one more thing

                    i don’t think a group of people that the state has spent centuries stamping out are in a position to successfully hold together a country as wide-spread and diverse as the united states, so i feel like just handing it over with no other intervention is as good as a free for all, and i think that just leads to a right wing takeover

      Wishing for the collapse of the current system is very leftist

      And see the imperialist, colonialist, capitalist China and Russia rise to wreck the world as they see fit just like how USA do? How very leftist of you.

          No different, Just like hiding behind leftist agenda while pushing your anti-us one is no different than the right-wing trying to hide their fascism while pretend to do it for the people. Also you get someone who’s not even trying to hide their intention if US collapse.

      And y’all wonder why people don’t take the left seriously.

        Hi friend, you seem to be* confused. Blahaj has downvotes disabled, so the count is almost always going to be zero. The only downvotes you may potentially see come from your own server.

        I know in this case you might be upset that this person has 0 downvotes, but the reason Blahaj has them disabled is because bigots often use them to shutdown, and try and hide, trans people’s comments and posts. Even when they are not saying anything controversial.
