return2ozmaSome of y'all are not ready to hear this...
Korne127What is the point of this meme? I feel like the only thing this can produce is people to not try to reform and improve the democratic party and take it over (like the tea party took over the republicans). Kind of like these “give up climate change it can’t be stopped” posts that just benefits the big fossil fuels companies
RedPandaRaiderYou should not attempt to reform something which is not reformable. Instead start something new.
In general, you should not reform. Revolution is the way forward.
Easy to say from your parents basement.
Instead of projection, try self-reflection.
We need to capture the dems and turn them into a socialist party, just like the fascists captured the reps and turned them into a anti-worker. I spend way too long in the army to have the illusion that the american people are capable of changing anything through other means.
This reform is simply not possible. You cannot use the same methods as the far right and expect the same result but for a different ideology. They work differently, they’re based on different systems and beliefs.
And you seriously underestimate the power of revolutionary warfare. Technological advances in military warfare have made things harder, but not impossible. In 93 Russians were in the streets fighting the Russian military to overthrow Yeltsin. They had the courage, even without the military training. On Vietnam a nation and it’s people successfully defended their freedom against a technologically superior army. And I don’t think I need to list how many coups and revolutions have appeared over the past 100 years. You can’t think it’s impossible looking at history.
I am no billionaire able to fund a milita, nor am I a general. But when the time arises or rather if it arises while I live, I do have the zeal to kill and die for what I believe in.
No, as I said I was in the military for almost a decade. I promise you I’m way more versed in the art of turning people into fertilizer than you ever will be. 1993 was 30 some years ago. I saw things in 2005 that would still blow your mind.
Technological advances do not change societal upheaval.
Revolutions don’t fight the military in symmetrical warfare.
Militaries can defect, they can be sabotaged, their bases besieged, their supply lines disrupted, their forces stretched too thin, etc.
In ideal circumstances no revolution would have to fight one united military. Parts would defect or declare neutrality. Those who fight have finite supply and finances. What will a soldier do when he runs out of bullets and more importantly rations?
But in the absolute worst case, it will either lead to a more bloody victory or the military would have to literally depopulate the country with lethal force to establish their rule.
Also the 90s are not so far from your 2005. The majority of the military equipment Russia uses today in Ukraine is the same as during the Black October in 93.
Look, I literally don’t care what you think. I spent a quarter of my life working for the army. You clearly don’t have a very strong grasp on what your asking people to do.
If you do not care, why share your shit opinion anyway?
You seem to have no idea what actual war or revolutions are like if you think you’ll have ice cream trucks drive up to you after bombing a city into the ground. Plundering a foreign country and getting food from home and fighting a civil war are completely different things. I’m sure your Navy seal ass with over 300 confirmed kills would know that.
Also what do Russia and Ukraine have to do with us fighting your hypothetical revolution?
Because those see quite literally 90% the same military equipment. During the uprising and during the war now. If you can’t see how that matters, then I don’t know what to tell you.
Whatever you say chief. Maybe try a suicide bomb. That worked for a bit in Iraq.
Talking about war and then admitting to being a medic.
The retard is you American. Your kind should not exist.
I mean according to my countrymen your the retard who shouldn’t exist yet here I am wasting my time talking to someone who has never said a kind thing to me. All because you don’t approve of my vision of the future and can’t see the world how I see it. Maybe you should take a look in the mirror and realize you are the problem the left has.
