I mean I agree with the general message of class solidarity but using all those hashtags make it hard to take anyone seriously, regardless of their position.
Your language in the comments are also very divisive for someone claiming to want to break idealogical lines. If people are disagreeing with you, that’s an opportunity to change minds. If everyone’s agreeing with you, you might just be in an echo chamber.

Yeah, probably so. That’s how I feel about it though. I literally just posted it because I thought it was a really insightful and important message and one I wanted to share. It’s like a celebration of these victories that working people have been able to achieve recently, and an important insight into reasons it was able to happen and how to keep it going. Then I got this swell of disapproval about it. I interpreted that as stemming from people being addicted to their divisiveness and unsympathetic to the victories of anyone who doesn’t perfectly agree with them ideologically. So yeah I got sort of embittered about it with my response.
I think you’re right and I apologize about being combative about it, that’s probably not productive, you’re right. But it’s hard for me to be apologetic about the reasons for the reaction.

I actually kind of enjoy when most people disagree with me, that’s why I’m over here commenting instead of in /c/workersrightsoverpolitics. I do definitely have the feeling that there’s an echo chamber effect going on, yes.
I welcome your downvotes, you short sighted fucks.
I tried to find this to send a picture of it, but I couldn’t, so I’ll describe it: There are some panels in “The Cartoon History of the World” showing some revolutionary movement, where the revolutionaries spent all their energy arguing amongst one another over factional issues, and it shows them getting led off at gunpoint still arguing their issues amongst one another, and then their little feet hanging from the gallows up above the frame, with speech bubbles still coming down from above showing them arguing with each other. And that’s the end of that revolution.
That’s you guys, apparently. Good luck.
Anyone spending that much time whining about votes on the fucking internet is the exact kind of person you’re whining about
The exact kind of person I’m whining about would instead be going here and demanding to know what each person trying to upvote thought about trans rights, or policing in the United States, before they were willing to accept the upvote.
I think anyone who can watch this video and have a negative reaction to it has something severely wrong with their thought processes. If that’s whining, you better call the whaaaaambulance for me because I feel extremely whiny about it.
