I love how in a truly alt-right tactic he shifted the blame somwhere else, ...

I stopped reading right there because Hillary is the undisputed Universal Empress of blame someone else. She even wrote a book and went on a worthless blame someone else tour.

Hillary has legit grievances and was fucked out of a rightful win though.

Not campaigning in the right places is what fucked her.

I never got banned for sticking up for class politics and the potential of good white working class people *shrug*

I argued with liberals a lot but they like me for some reason

congrats on that long con PD

it’s not so much that mods would ban for arguing class politics it’s that I seemed to get swamped by 5-10 people presuming that i was acting in bad faith

Yeah  but I didn't, that's what I mean. Im a red flaming communist and Neogaf was actually a very capitalist site.

probably because i also care about intersectionality and am not a brocialist

I wish I had your patience. I never got banned for socialism per se, personally (and frankly, people like you, crab, and Valhelm are a lot better at arguing for it), but there was definitely not an atmosphere of balanced and good-faith debate about it, even if it got slightly better this year.

The thing is, a lot of them are good people except for the fact that theyre capitalists. Easy to debate with if you dont just constantly lose your shit like mclmktr or whatever his name was.

Easier to catch flies with honey

I guess it also helps that I don't think a literal revolution will happen in the US  so im open to market socialism as a transitional form, which socdems see as reasonable

Serious talk but this is years of user frustration coming out where they were all walking on egg shells and couldn’t complain about evilore or the moderation and now they are all in full flight . Evilore act set them free and they sung like canaries

Looking back on it, the eggshells were there from when I first started. But I thought they were to make the site family friendly, not to belittle adults and control they're ability to voice themselves.

[gfm793]

without social and political discourse, in which sane and rational dialogue was given a safe space from the lunatic denizens of the alt right, there's no longer any draw to GAF. its appeal was the strict moderation that refused right wingers a platform. the reason it was so popular is precisely because of the mods not tolerating 4chan levels of idiocy.

I feel like human nature will lead to an inherent corruption of market socialism however. True capitalism also was corrupted but I feel it's more easily fixed and salvaged. How many socialist nations/leaders have we seen fall? Capitalism is flawed but seems more stable.

It's a popular front thing. after Antifa started going wild I asked PoliGAF if we were all cool now and the response of course was "no but for now yes"

but this year, I think, has opened a lot of peoples eyes to the necessity of direct action. it's also made a bunch of other people think the left is crazy terrorists or whatever butbthsts to be expected.

yeah, I like macklemorectrl's posts, but he definitely let the dominant PoliGAF tenor get under his skin too much of the time, a mistake I made a few times myself.

My least favorite PoliGAFfer of late is probably the professed socialist whose main praxis seemed to be denouncing leftists and defending liberal Democrats for what were ostensibly noble, intersectional reasons but always seemed to me to be mainly about buttressing his ego as the arbiter of true socialism

Easy to be more stable when you have centuries of wealth taken from looting and pillaging colonized parts of the world the start with. Not to say there weren't high class in 20th century command economies, but capitalism literally keeps tripping over itself every decade.
