Since it’s hellworld, I’m sure the answer will be no but…is it irrational to ask ourselves whether their complete mask off moment is happening a bit too quickly?
Material conditions are getting worse, make no mistake. Capitalism is due for a catastrophic event. But, we’re kind of not there yet, and the chuds are making such a big stink about being the catalysts for this once in a generation ™ extinction event in capitalism. And the amount of poo, So much poo, they throw it everywhere and they do it so loudly that even the most politically unaware are made aware of their pant shitting wrecking this paper tiger of an economy.
So that combined with all the flat out fucking weird and supremely distasteful shit they’re doing and saying makes me feel like they’re overplaying their hand. Atp they just have to kill all of us because i can’t imagine they’re not turning off a lot of normies
I dunno, there’s a lot of people who are pretty content with being bigoted through some veil of propriety, don’t think they want to fight on the kkk frontlines and be confronted for it. But I’m probably being extremely hopeful.
This is honestly one of my main questions too. Why paint oneself into making arguments in favor of indefensible positions in an environment where it’s just going to make everyone angry?
Because liberals sit around producing “owns” like they’re in a collective shower argument and get so used to tha that they forget that their sorkin fantasy is not reality.
Communists also do that sometimes, but we generally live in neoliberal society and mostly know neoliberals, so we literally can’t manage to be in that much of a bubble unless we totally compartmentalize our political conversations to spaces like this one.
Yeah, I think you’ve pretty much captured the reason here.

Extremely plausible answer.
The average liberal has enough brain cells to know to avoid the topic entirely. Only a LessWrong dork would bother to die on this hill for their own ego.
