      yup expressing despair or cynicism about the revolutionary potential of the imperial core in the context of the imminent threats of nuclear war and climate change means i don’t think people deserve healthcare and that i don’t think imperialism is bad and that i should just hang out with nazis on reddit or whatever. might as well go get called slurs on 4chan since i disagree on this one thing with the illustrious user The Soviet Reporter, i don’t deserve any kind of access to a safer space like this.

      i’m just pretty sure widespread intensified climate catastrophe or nuclear war are much more likely to happen within my lifetime than a socialist revolution in the 4th reich hog country. whatever poor souls survive either of those horror scenarios of starvation and desperation will maybe be communist and rebuild afterwards but thats not really a ‘revolution’.

        If you don’t have revolutionary optimism why even be part of a leftist space that promotes revolutionary optimism then? Nobody wants to hear doomerist ideas though. Leave that shit in nihilist subreddits.

            lmao, no they do not. There are lots of more thought out responses than people just being doomers which is literally the most misanthropic selfish way of thinking. All it does is to drag everyone down on bullshit thoughts.

            its not nihilist to acknowledge reality.

            lmao, all shitty ideologies profess that they are ‘reality’. That is how they cope. Along side with ‘that is just human nature’.

            we have an entire comm called ‘doomer’ fuck off with your tone policing bullshit. ‘leftism is when happy and fascism is when sad’ completely unserious and ableist take

            lmao, doomers are anti-revolutionary garbage that literally try to make people believe that a brighter future is not possible. You can throw all the liberal insults that you want, but that doesn’t change that you are an anti-revolutionary with no revolutionary optimism, who is just defensively trying to shoehorn your rotten negativity into leftists spaces.
