DC Unrest Megathread

[I Stand With TRKL1917]

At the very minimum, we should all offer critical support to the upcoming Biden Administration against the putschists.

These terrorists need to be stopped by any means necessary.

No. If anything I side with the putschists because I always support the underdog perspective. You remind me of this group that actually admitted that most of the imperialist ruling class supports Biden but still endorsed him anyway because MUH NAZIS: http://www.lrp-cofi.org/statements/election2020.html

Biden is the most bourgeois and reactionary Democrat in decades (while Trump is the least "bad" Republican, compared to Reagan, Bush, McCain, Romney, etc.) yet has gotten unprecedented support from supposed "radical leftists" who used to oppose the Democratic Party. Even Obama never had this kind of support and it is pretty disappointing, to say the least. I guess I shouldn't have expected much better from Trots.

I can't really stand with the MAGA movement though because it is cringe. I can support querfronts with some far-right groups but not the kind that think Obama wasn't pro-Israel enough, which is what most of the MAGA crowd are. I do stand with the woman who was murdered by the pigs. Working-class lives of ANY color don't matter to the pigs.

Well, it certainly reminds me why Pineville Jeb is one of a very small number of posters I have on ignore.

Being ignored by a Blairite is a badge of honor.

Mods, when?

PLEASE DADDY, SUPPRESS THE DISSIDENT'S RIGHT TO EXPRESS HIS OPINION! MMMMMMMMMMMMM CUMMIES!!

What if the underdog is promoting a foul ideology? Would you still support them?

For that matter, what do you define as an underdog?

Whoever the bourgeois, liberal, "respectable" opinion is demonizing at the time.

For instance, in the 1980s the Polish People's Republic government was the underdog because it was being demonized by the imperialist ruling class and their liberal and "left" cheerleaders for defending the gains of the Polish workers' revolution against counterrevolutionary Solidarnosc fascists.

I'm not as far left as you are but I've been consistent on not letting Aughts #NeverTrump Republicans off the hook for Iraq War and neoliberal economic policy when it was clear they had learned nothing and forgotten nothing from the past 20 or 30 years. I'll even admit I cheered when Trump tore into Jeb! Bush on the Iraq War and 9/11 happening under his brother's watch. I still maintain that Trump is ultimately a symptom, a culmination of pretty much every pathological undercurrent in American society since the end of the Cold War if not longer and that in many ways he was the child who finally shouted that the Emperor indeed had no clothes.

That being said, what has been Trump's record since he took the oath of office? He has not inaugurated any populist or even centrist project such as his vague promises of cracking down on prescription drug prices or a huge infrastructure bill. Instead, Trump has pursued the reactionary policies of the Congressional Republicans such as an attempt to totally repeal Obamacare whose success would have left millions without insurance and a huge tax cut for the wealthy in exchange for the Congressional Republicans' servile worship of him. Trump did not end of his foreign wars and instead exacerbated tensions with Iran and Cuba. With the exception of North Korea (most of the credit for which belongs to the liberal South Korean government not Trump), he has not pursued any policy that might be remotely called progressive. His Supreme Court appointments has made decisions such as national "right to work" infinitely more likely. Trump has fundamentally governed as a reactionary conservative.

I do not blame Trump for everything on Covid-other Western nations make clear that high death rates were inevitable regardless of the quality of leadership. Still he has frequently encouraged dangerous behaviour and often undermined public health authorities, emboldening those adhering to lunatic conspiracy theories regarding the virus. With his defeat in the 2020 election, Trump embarked on a campaign to overturn the results of a legitimate election where his main opponent won. I don't see how such an antidemocratic, reactionary effort should be applauded by any so-called socialist.

Of course Trump is not "good". I cast a protest vote for Jorgensen because Hawkins and the PSL were not running in my state. But at least Trump did not start any new wars. McCain and Romney would have done all those things and worse.

The fact that Trump is supporting $2000 stimulus checks while "hero of democracy" Mitch McConnell isn't proves that Trump is better than a typical republican.

So you would side with the corrupt bureaucrats and Moscow toadies against actual Polish workers?

Of course that regime was not perfect but this smacks of imperialist propaganda
