I know it isn't supported by a large amount of voters. You can look at polling that shows even conservatives are split on it and a lot find it offputting. It is being pushed by the bourgeoisie because they need a scapegoat for their economic system failing while the work to change to a fascist capitalist mode of production and crush anti-capitalist organizing.

And if it was supported, guess why it would be supported? Because the bourgeois media systemically spread hatred of the group.

Edit: also what you said isn't related to what I wrote. How does however many people supporting transphobia relate to us being in a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie which will not allow us to take effective action against transphobes through its mechanisms?

There are literally 8 parties represented in the legislature

This is kind of tasteless given the article is about trans people in Florida facing worsening conditions.

"You see, this formulation of steel can hold an edge much better than the steel you can get over the counter that I used for my first torture whip"

If coops are more capital efficient and the proletariat definitionally doesn't own capital that means...

Prole says the concept of private property gave the bourgeoisie bad habits, prescribes a redistribution of the means of production if the bourgeoisie knows what's good for them.

Or in 51 of the current century

Good tweet text, bad flag

Our "fringe ideology" has the largest political party on the planet.

Well, there's a scintillating rejoinder! Feel free to lay down some verifiable facts that prove me wrong.

A democrat funded group put this out:

Wait so what trauma are you using to justify your shitty behavior? And you never asked me not to tone police you?

Remind me what happened with Allende yesterday in 1973, and what happened to the Indonesian communists?

Death threats are an inappropriate and disproportiate response but have you considered that it is because you're more irritating to the left than you are to the right? Especially given how right wingers historically are massively more violent?

You're literally buying into the idea that politics can be separated from life which is what capitalist media benefits from in a roundabout way. Capitalists don't want us to think "everything is political" because it threatens their power.

Humans are political animals, "my life isn't political" is just denying yourself agency so you don't have to worry about exercising a part of your consciousness that is healthy and normal to exercise.

My view on being part of a dsa chapter full of actual socialists is that the people who have comfy professional jobs are not going to form the vanguard but they can still be useful if they have the right politics. We can do good work together in an accelerationist sense- ei making conditions less precarious and connecting organizing around labor, tenants, and municipal issues to a wider context of capitalism.

I can't do that with a ML party that struggles to have a book club.

Also you're going off mainstream liberal dictionaries and not how the left as a cluster of organized movements has come to definitions for its working purposes. So you're coming at it from an outside (liberal) perspective which reads as an indicator you're a liberal.

Coming onto your property. And half of it is theirs now and you're refusing to call a truce even though youve failed your big push to retake that half and are slowly losing more ground.

Here is the full context which still permits slavery so long as you've done a crime(and what counts as a crime can be modified to get the exact amount of slave labor you need)

Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

I mean that is literally what they're doing on a larger scale
