Don’t worry, you may not live in the US, but you’re definitely an American in spirit.
And you clearly don’t seem to have problem with US prison system, only that wrong people are sent there. You’re as full of shit as the people you think you’re criticizing
Soviet Union: Sequesters fascists and counter-revolutionaries for reeducation after Nazi Germany murdered millions of people while invading the USSR with the express purpose of genocide.
The US: Uses drug prohibition as a bullshit excuse to systematically arrests racial minorities in their millions in order to continue enslavement after the abolition of chattel slavery. The conditions are so brutal that the death rate for modern US prison inmates exceeds that of the Soviet gulag system just a decade into recovering from the devastation wrought by WW2.
Lemmitor turbolib: Wow, these are morally equivalent. If you replace the words “fascist comprador looking to resume the brutalization of the working class” with the words “black people” then you tankies are starting to look an awful lot like 4channers!
I’ll spell it out for you a little clearer, since you don’t seem capable of understanding it on your own.
Your entire attitude fucking screams “I have nothing good going on in my life, so I’ve adopted an extreme viewpoint that easily allows me to feel superior to others”.
You see this shit on all sides of the political spectrum. An example you’re likely familiar with and hate would be fanatical/fundamentalist Christians. Nothing truly going right with their life, so they adopt a belief system that gives them an outlet for their hate/anger/frustration where they don’t have to feel bad about it because they are targeting the “bad guys”.
Someone who was in a good place in life wouldn’t be posting shit online calling for putting people in fucking gulags.
You can use all the excuses and mental gymanstics you want, but at the end of the day, you’ve adopted an idealogy where extreme actions are justified and right to take against your “enemy”, and where anyone even slightly advocating for you to slow your roll is instantly redefined as an “enemy”.
You just did that. You start spouting shit about Americans, and when the guy said he wasn’t one you just said that he effectively was one anyway and kept down the path you were already on. That’s absurd.
Anyway, your entire defense for your statements here is that your bad guys are the real bad guys. That’s the beginning and end of it. That type of self righteousness is something to be feared, not something to be championed because you’ve “found the right target”.
Please note, I’ve not made any statement on whether you’re wrong or right in your targeting. That’s a separate discussion.
It has been demonstrated time and time again in historical record the world over, that the fervor of people like you can and will be abused, and shifted towards wider and wider classifications of “targets”.
Anyway, I hope your life situation improves enough someday that you no longer find the need to be a self-righteous asshat on the internet calling for people’s torture. I’m blocking you, so I won’t be around to see it.
People who have been fucked over by the system often adopt a position to advocate for radical system change? Wooah, very insightful. If you care about people who are negatively affected by modern systems, then that makes their opinion and lived experience more important, not less.
You even admit that the user may be targeting the right people, so your point is what? That violence is unjustifiable? That strongly believing in a cause leads to disaster? They’re not true points, but they’d be much better starting points for constructive discussion, so you can just say whatever you actually mean.
People making such pretentious, word-salad arguments as yours should not be throwing around the term ‘self-righteous asshat’.
I have nothing good going on in my life, so I’ve adopted an extreme viewpoint
Correct. Oppressed peoples tend to support “radical” movements that would improve their lives, and this is a stupid comment for trying to make that sound like a bad thing.
God are you people so fucking stupid, just a bunch of unwarranted self importance and navel gazing nonsense all crammed into a skull cavity the size of a thimble.
Your entire attitude fucking screams “I have nothing good going on in my life, so I’ve adopted an extreme viewpoint…”.
You mean to tell me that people who are chewed up and shat out by the current order are willing to take drastic measures and radically change the world!??!
Honestly dude if I lost a debate as hard as you did I wouldn’t be spouting this psychobabble diarrhea
“you believe in stuff and that’s bad cause I don’t believe in anything” is never the place you want to be in a discussion, you basically admitted you have no clue what the fuck you’re talking about and because your opponent does that somehow makes them mentally ill???
So are only people who are “in a good place” in their lives capable of having “extreme” political beliefs? How do you justify who is in a “good place” and who isn’t? Do you think it could ever be related to political or economic forces? Or are “extreme” political ideologies all universally forbidden? How do you qualify what is “extreme”? Are people who are not in “a good place” only able to have conservative positions that maintain status quo or are they only able to be apolitical? How do you think maintaining status quo or not having any political beliefs would help their “life situation [improve] enough” if there is no change to their politico-economic reality which directly impacts their life situation? If one is in a “good place” what kinds of political beliefs would they typically exhibit or are they allowed to have?
Your entire attitude fucking screams “I have no real political analysis but suffer from a great sense of narcissism that leads me to a false sense of intelligence which makes me think I can paternalistically psychologize others’ entire lives without knowing them so that I can justify sharing my ignorant opinions that communicate that I believe I have a better life than others do and that makes me a superior person” so that gives me hope you won’t be able to help yourself from responding further. Also happy to pay you with Hexbear gold for a similar psychological analysis and thorough breakdown of my political potential if it saves me a trip to the therapist, kind stranger. Thanks.

i think billionaires should be shot, not sent to gulags. gulags are for non-bourgeois liberals.
THIS, this is the correct way of doing it, Gulags are not for the highest level offenders

That they think would improve their lives, you mean.

Seriously get a grip
My life situation is great, actually. I still think gulags are appropriate.

Have you considered kinetically prosecuting yourself?
How hard is it to have a brain-eating amoeba?
