Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide or atrocity denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. Please redirect any Fediverse tankie-posts to !MeanwhileOnGrad@sh.itjust.works to avoid bringing drama to Piefed.social
Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!
Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

No.
yes.
Technically correct, although I wonder whether it would be easier to challenge the system under the "nothing will fundamentally change" party or the "We are actively and gleefully changing things for the worse" party...
Best is to organize the working class behind a 3rd party.
That would be best, yes. Is there a 3rd party in the US that already exists that could be organized behind?
@MousePotatoDoesStuff I dont know as I am not american but the greens are way better as a starting point than the dems.
Same. And yeah, from what little I've heard of them, they do seem better. Unfortunately, it will take some time and promotional support until they can win elections. And in the meantime, it's sadly red vs blue.
