to add to this, Gramsci argued that revolutionary change requires meeting people where they actually are intellectually and culturally, then gradually building toward a new “good sense” / critical consciousness. The video is solid propaganda, and like you said, not agitprop.

This movie was so great. I found it randomly while browsing Shudder. I thought it was gonna be a pretty standard horror movie since it was on shudder but it ended up being so much more. I love it! Definitely a must watch.

A lot of political influencers within the Atlantic/NYT orbit are very, very eager to sell us on the lie that we can get out of fascism by sacrificing trans people.

They will beat that drum even louder as the right weaponizes this tragedy.

They are liars now & they will be liars in the coming days.

The only people being attacked are Zionists and they deserve all the hatred in the world and more. Plenty of Jewish people stand against Israel’s genocide and I don’t think any of them feel unsafe.

You are failing to see the bigger picture here. Whether it’s Trump or Newsom, both are capitalist fascists. The dem’s understated fascism is just easier for you to swallow bc doesnt affect you as directly. The only solution I’m interested in is revolution. Electoral politics is not going to save us.

LGBTQ+ rights and true democracy are interlinked. You will never stop fascism by throwing oppressed minority groups under the bus and you will never taste true freedom while either the Democrats or Republicans are in power.

what do you want me to do about that

not enough apparently

I will once again suggest reading a history book

if you think this started in 2023 you should consider shutting the fuck up and reading a history book first before engaging in a conversation you clearly know nothing about.

1) no one’s threatening your life
2) the fact that you have a personal relationship explains why you love Trump and newsom so much.
3) enjoy licking boots
