    It’s always cringy when “the right” can’t come up with an original idea so they imitate something successful on “the left” and swap out words and think it’ll get anywhere

    The left have done nothing to the US, the mess it’s in is solely down to the right and always has been.

    I love their new hit: “Your Body, MY Choice” that one goes hard. Their older hit “ICE, ICE, Deport The Babies” didn’t quite catch me.

    I have no idea how anyone can still think the left and ‘globalists’ are in power when all the shit for nearly 50 years has been increasing authoritarianism and fascism.

      Them:" I saw someone once who spoke a different language than me once. What is that if not GLOBALISM?"

      Soviet Union was authoritarian. Both the far left and the far right don’t want authoritarianism but claim the other side does.

      Fascism, when state and companies become one, is the opposite of a small state, a major goal of the right.

      So from a right wing perspective, the left and globalists must be in power if they are not living freely in a country with a small state.

      Left and right should talk. There are many things that they can achieve together.

        All countries are “authoritarian,” all states exert authority. When analyzing them, it’s important to find which class is represented, which class is exerting its authority. The USSR was authoritarian towards the bourgoeisie, monarchists, and fascists, but empowering for the proletariat.

        Further, fascism is just Capitalism in different circumstances. Dire circumstances, where it needs to violently and brutally defend its class dynamics.

        I don’t think there’s much the left can gain from the right.

          Capitalism and fascism is not what the proletarian right wants.

          The main differences are that the right accepts social, class differences while the left wants socialized support and unity. On the other hand the left wants individual personal differences while the right wants uniform values.

          It’s not about gaining things from the right but overcoming differences. There doesn’t have to be left and right. Then both sides can change society together and make a better world instead of fighting each other for the benefit of the upper class.

            The “right” is made up of those who want to retain the current Capitalist system, or turn the clock “back,” to earlier days. The “left” is made up of Socialists that want to progress onwards. The left and right “values” you list aren’t really indicative of right or left, but vibes.

            The proletariat should unify, but this would make them left. Abandoning the reactionary position of being right-wing doesn’t mean the leftists get less left, it’s unifying around correct analysis.

              From the point of view of the right, the left government is maintaining overbearing zoning laws and medical regulations. These left politics retain the profits for the upper class in the current Capitalist system.

              It’s the separation of the proletariat that uphelds Capitalism, not one side alone.

              A unified proletariat doesn’t have to be left. Restricting analysis to dialectical materialism misses that people also care about other things. The left would already have convinced the entire proletariat if it’s only materialism.

              It’s the arrogance of already knowing how to resolve social issues that keeps the left stuck in the past. The left is all about respecting people and their emotions and desires, but when they are expressed in the form of right-wing support, they are called reactionary and ignored.

    Imagine looking for musicians while stating in your ad “I plan on writing songs… “

    You make the songs, then you look for people to play them.

      He doesnt actually know how to write songs, but in his head he “knows” hes the main character, so he thinks hes gonna get a group of musicians together, start playing some shitty chord, and everything will just fall into place and the bassist and drummer will stsrt playing along with some brilliant ideas of their own that he can take all the credit for because he’s the frontman and he started the band.

      Yeah, this is definitely just someone who got told (possibly even by a band member of Rage Against the Machine themselves) what the songs and the band are actually about. Doubt a single song will ever be made.
