Very serious thinker Brianna Wu is back with: “The cocaine left”
What is the "Cocaine Left?"
Symptoms of cocaine abuse are aggression, antisocial behavior, actions that are dangerous to themselves and others, psychosis, overconfidence and irritability.
A certain portion of our fringe is dangerous the same way that MAGA is dangerous. They're uninterested in building anything, or accomplishing any policy. They want to set fire to everything in sight.
The Cocaine Left is hurting us, and making it impossible for the larger family of the left to thrive and accomplish things. And as someone who just celebrated 20 years of sobriety, I can tell you - the kindest thing we can do is stop enabling them.
If you think Russia, China and Hamas are the good guys, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you believe violence is a valid political tactic, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you think burning America down so your ideology can rise from the ashes is best, you are part of the Cocaine Left.
It's not going to be easy cutting them off and moving on without them, but in the end we will all be a lot healthier.
If you think Russia, China and Hamas are the good guys, you are part of the Cocaine Left.
What if i think 2 of the three are the good guys and one is the enemy of my enemy that i don't particularly like in any way but still rank higher than the West?
"the cocaine left" is a very dumb moniker. People hearing you say "the cocaine left" will be confused. How much cocaine is left? How much did you start with? How long ago did you start with that amount? Have you been sharing the cocaine? Do you plan to get more cocaine?
"We gotta denounce the people who actually want to do stuff so we can get back to what the movement is really about, smugly occupying the moral highground while losing every single ideological political and societal battle."
[The cocaine left are] uninterested in building anything, or accomplishing any policy. They want to set fire to everything in sight.
Isn’t the stereotype of people high on cocaine is that they’re hyper motivated to come with a plan to start a small business or write a movie script? That’s why Wall Street bros and Hollywood scuzbags use it, they get high but also go super Type A on their work at the same time.
what's the purpose of using ableist verbiage? the "war on drugs" and folks who consider themselves right or right-leaning use similar rhetoric to expunge people considered 'lesser'. To note this is a subgroup of individuals of conservative ideology, not all. It is important to make the distinction becauuse while I disagree all-the-same, the kinds of disagreements are different and need not be lumped together.
it's great she has 20 years of sobriety, it is inappropriate to use it as a cudgel to to wield against anyone else who she seeks to demean or otherwise treat unseriously. perhaps some were similarly unfair to her during her time of insobriety, it does not therefore mean she needs to reproduce her treatment onto others.
"hurt people, hurt people" is a descriptive account of what occurs, not a guidebook on appropriate behavior.
Brianna Wu has been posting about how the bible backs up Zionisms political claims, like shes 100x the cocaine poster compared to anyone shes trying to label as cocaine left.
This gamer denounces violence as a political tactic? Is violence committed by the US and its pedo-Zionist colony exempt from this? Or are Biden and Bibi part of the cocaine left?
Most leftists I know couldn't afford cocaine if they even wanted it (which they usually don't). I do some about twice a year on average, and almost always regret it.
Coming back to this, implying a (loose) movement with a significant amount of POC are on cocaine is fucking wild.
Oh Malcolm X? The black Panthers? They were on crack cocaine which is why he was irritable, anti-social and aggressive. That's why Malcolm praised China, the USSR and was anti Zionist.
Not like us mostly white "leftists" who don't accomolish anything. We're not under the influence, toe the line and accomplish nothing. Roe V Wade was overturned under our watch, military spending and IDF funding increased, but we're better people who aren't controlled opposition!
Even from her this is seriously such a desperate attempt at creating noise. I feel like she could do a lot better than immediately contradicting herself in the post with violence not being valid tactic considering the country she's in was found in violence.
(warning twitter link I don’t think nitter works anymore)
nitter.poast.orgstill works but apparently the instance is hosted by chuds? There are other ones that still work sometimes and not others, but the poast one seems to always work.
So she is attributing all the social and economic frustrations to the use of expensive designer drugs? Very on brand for a failed politician from Massachusetts, the nimby capital of the world.
Democrats have probably lost like 8,000 18-35 year old votes max due to the "dirtbag" "cocaine "peepeepoopoo" left, most of which they would have lost anyway without chapo because those people would have just used their eyes ears and brain anyway over the last 8 years. The reason dems lose elections is because they suck ass and run on bad policies that they don't even end up implementing most of the time.
