But historically, leftists in the strongest age of labor agitation have supported 'half-measures' that didn't bring about full socialism.
Modern incrementalists are not fit to speak of people who accomplish things other than genocide.
And yet the leftists accomplish nothing other than empowering the right through their weaponized political ineptitude. They are not fit to gatekeep liberals from political action.
"Incrementalism is when harm reduction"
I see one of my tankie bootlicker fans has come to chime in. Sorry that I didn't want tens of thousands of Iranians murdered, while you view it as a price you're willing to pay for moral purity and absolutely no positive change.
And you view it as an acceptable price to pay as long as no one got to vote against the genocide you masturbate to.
Sorry that I've been calling out the Palestinian genocide for a decade-and-a-half.
I guess you weren't paying attention until recently.
As the best shit you've ever seen.
Sorry that you think calling out Israelis for genociding Palestinians is praise. I'd say I hope you get better, but I know fascist bootlickers never do. :)
Why should anyone believe you when all you do is carry water for people who sell them weapons?
Because genocide is bad, but I guess since I'm not one of your fellow bootlickers, you instinctively take the opposite position.
So why do you carry water for its arms dealers?
So why did I tell people that voting for the less genocidal of the only two realistic candidates was necessary?
Because I thought more support for genocide was a bad thing. Something you don't agree with, I know.
The election is over and you're still carrying water.
"Carrying water" here meaning "Defending the choice of harm reduction."
I get it already, you don't think that reducing harm is worthwhile. You don't have to belabor the point.
"carrying water" here meaning defending whatever any pro-genocide centrist does.
lol
You've always found genocide hilarious, yes.
And that's why many leftist don't like the half-measures
... because they think accelerationism would have worked?
