You make a decent point comrade

With that in mind, I will fucking never (ever ever ever ever) vote for a ra(p/c)ist fucking wretch like Joe Biden. Call me dogmatic if you must, but it ain't happenin capn.

I did vote for Bernie in the primary and would've in the general too given the chance for exactly the reasons you state above though.

Sorry about the confusion, I did word it a little ambiguously I reckon

It upset me thinking about someone rage quitting this site just because they can't spam the R word. Like I still have trouble getting that word out of my day-to-day language honestly, but if you refuse to recognize why that word is a problem, then you're just being reactionary.

Oh no, no, there's a misunderstanding here lol

I meant, if you're willing to leave this site because you can't say ableist slurs, then you are a reactionary. Not vice versa 😅

I completely agree with this approach of yours

Honestly, if saying r***rd is a deal breaker, then you were a fucking reactionary asshole all along anyway

Have y'all ever tried to have a reactionary justify a landlord of an RV lot? They do basically zero maintenance (mow the grass is the only thing I can think of), and just let you use a tiny piece of their plot. And there is plenty of broke people living in RVs now-a-days (trust me, it's a shit way to live).

I'd be curious to see someone break their back trying to justify landlords under these circumstances

We need some sort of elections body (let's call it a college), to ensure that people living in high population areas aren't represented more than people living in lower population areas. More people shouldn't have more votes than less people! That would be tyranny!

No, I will not be taking questions. Thanks for listening to my TED talk.

Lenin was definitely not in favor of electoralism in the way you're talking about here though

Iirc, Lenin's thoughts on participating in bourgeois elections was never to actually hold office (that isn't going to happen), but to use it as a signal boost for organizing outside of electoralism.

Lenin would have definitely had some choice words to say about the menshevik Bernie

I know it can be a little difficult to eliminate ableist slurs from your vernacular, but we should really be making the effort

No good reason whatsoever to disparage and alienate our comrades with disabilities. I'm sure they get just about enough of that from the reactionaries in mainstream spheres

Let's be better than that

I think it's the opposite

They used the banning of fash subs (T_D had long been dead) as an excuse to ban CTH. They can't be allowing such a large sub to exist that is advocating socialism. Its affect on advertisers is reason enough alone to do this.
