Why I’m pro-Russia & pro-Rage Against the War Machine: anti-imperialists can’t win with idealism
open.substack.comWhen somebody rejects all of the practical paths towards fighting imperialism and class exploitation, on the basis that they feel we should be taking a purer path, then you had better make sure this other path is viable. If it’s not viable, and they’re saying this simply to complain rather than to offer a serious alternative, then you shouldn’t even entertain them. Because what’s the point of validating somebody who has nothing constructive to say? Unless an option is practicable, it’s not worth bringing up.
Still with you on this 100% comrade, if it matters. It seems to me some (not itt… necessarily) are more willing to destroy the already existing anti-imperialist left and ally with rightists, racists and sex-pests than work on making those existing orgs (which actually practice fucking demcent like PSL and ANSWER) better. I’ve said enough on the LP now to write a novella and I’m rather sick of this conversation.
I quote Letter from a Birmingham Jail like twice a week nowadays. I see a whole bunch of so-called radicals deadass acting like King’s white moderate; and keeping it a buck it fuckin disgusts me. If this… Nonsense I’m seeing right now is the future of the Amerikan settler-colonial left, then that’s my sign that I’m better served trying to get the fuck out this part of the world and going… Literally anywhere else.
