Y’all mind if I just uncancel myself like our lord and savior Jesus Christmas?

I love how this whole premise never gets questioned. By anyone. None of the super smartest people in the movie were like, “no that won’t work.” The premise just gets accepted as true, but it would be bad.

“I’m going to eliminate half of all life in the universe” hey thanos did you know that scarcity in modern society isn’t driven by population at all, and is in fact an artificial condition imposed on the lower classes by the ruling class that hoards those resources?

No its just like, “well killing people is wrong but it would probably work, people might be sad though.” No Disney, fuck you. Don’t let people believe this shit. Thanks for your endless support for cultural fascism, ya fucks

Well you see, I watched half of the yellow lecture and now good thing bad and bad thing good! Its Dialectical Materialism!

Neo-Stalinism is a meme ideology that produces radical liberal bureaucrats, not revolutionaries.

But principled MLs and Maoists are much better at decolonial struggles and centralization than most of the left. And they tend to be much better educated on history and theory than the based Stalinists, and certainly most ambient liberals.

The trick is to learn to tell the difference between aspirational leftists and real ones. The real movement, you can disagree but you have to prove yourself in action because in political struggle the stakes are real. And to be effective we have to work together in evaluating and acting on what is objectively real. But in the real movement, people come from all different backgrounds, and live in all different environments that affects the way they look at social problems.

The people you’re arguing with don’t understand that the most loyal supporters that Stalin enabled in those early days after the revolution, were later executed/purged on trumped (heh) up charges of anarchism and Trotskyism. They have memorized a few apologetics for why its good actually, or never really happened. Its because they want to be actual practical organizers, but they’re still idealists who think repeating certain phrases legitimizes them. The older ML and Maoist organizers know this too, and try to educate where they can but any movement can become sectarian and self referential.

Don’t take the bait, the history is deeply contradictory no one really understands how easily it breaks people’s brains. Its better not to worry and focus on doing something real

You can also shine high power lasers in their eyes. Without some mechanism to quickly block sudden brightness (tech which exists as I understand) it will burn out the camera. Battery removal is the last resort shut down procedure so the battery has to be somewhat exposed in case of emergencies. Their joints are also vulnerable, and could be gummed up.

Signal jamming, drone hacking, there’s so much potential. They scare people, but they are pretty vulnerable.

There’s nothing about a drone with a gun mounted to it that doesn’t scream “free gun”
