Get them back to hating their bosses.

Where the fuck does this meme that all the working class are dumb racists come from ? In my experience that isn't the case at all, especially for those at the low end of the pay scale. (So not tradies)

it's a liberal meme

Liberals making the countryside look like some barren wasteland filled with white mutants that fuck their family members and regularly spout racism. It's sort of like some city supremacy because they can afford going to college and live comfortably in cities.

redneck here
appeal to muh guns and muh personal freedom
point out that there's been a large gap in material conditions between the north and south since the industrial revolution, and while we mine coal and pick cotton the starbucks sipping liberals up north rake in the profits
southerns have an innate respect for hard working unpretentious people

Well op and a lot of posters here seem to have fallen for that meme

That's why it's great to have these threads regularly and as well as post about actual working class to remind those what it meant when Marx and Engels stated "Workers of the World Unite!"

I bet these stupid rednecks haven't read a single book on utopian economic theories. They have no part in le glorious revolution! Into the gulags they go.

I live in the heartland of West Texas

Southerns value earning your way and therefore despise welfare. However they oh so often forget about how cotton subsidies are spent on Hummers and Jeeps like one of my cousins is doing.

It would help to introduce them to how corporations dickride the government and make the workers their gimps. Add the state into that equation and you will never see a redder redneck.

Yes, a lot of left-wingers are petty burghers falling for the memes about poor people being dumdums and them being smart

With a red Trump, the left succeeds at persuading CEO's with their SJW shit, but can't reach people not already predisposed to them or not in the upper echelons of society.

So basically, Young Patriots.

We already hate our bosses, but I for one am not capable of starting a new enterprise and going into competition with him. At least under the current system.

maybe force more shitskin immigration and niggershines on them, i'm sure that'll persuade them

You obviously ain't had much experience outside of your soft suburb.

I hear it worked in Sweden last night

You guys are all dumb. How do we even begin to convert people like this?

What was that Mao said about that

I do not agree with him on much but I think I agree with him saying that these people aren't ever worth your time, you should hate them 24/7, argue with them, confront them, and treat them like the giant garbage fire they are.

Because trying to befriend them is exactly the leftist hippy bullshit that's always failed

Fuck peace get results.

That is 100% a chubby, sheltered Holla Forumsack

Stop posting please

...

he isn't wrong, you know?

at least that is what Holla Forums tells me, you can't blame people for not having the liberal cognitive dissonance filter to not take you on your word

Good luck convincing the south and the midwest you naive hippy fuck

Why even bother? There's plenty of poor and downtrodden people in the cities, and ones that are primed for leftist ideologies already. I'm completely open to radicalization tactics like redneck revolt but it's so dumb to be laser focused and even fetishizing of rural areas as if there aren't working class people of all races living right in the city, and tons of them too.

Purge the rich urban liberals

appeal to their religion

This.

I'm not sure why Holla Forums fetishizes the american white working class but is willing to throw mexicans under the bus abd justify any injustice committed against Trump as

Some people here are idpolled as fuck and don't recognize it

Against them by Trump

Jesus loved beggars

Not even just the mexicans and other immigrants. There are tons of multi generational black and white americans in the inner cities that have histories with the labor movements here but have been disenfranchised utterly, but if they don't drive tractors in a wheat field they're not the REAL working class.

by openly and explicitly fighting against things most liberals do and support that are engineered to antagonise them (like gun control, means testing of welfare benefits) and uncucking them by explaining to them how "bipartisan" policies like the drug war end up creating the border clusterfuckes for which trump proposes awful authoritarian solutions.

once you acknowledge that liberal policies have actually materially fucked them over and once you present materially better alternatives and don't try to engage in awful culture war nonsense, you can uncuck many of them. not all, but many.

is that redneck revolt? ive always wondered what group that was.

i think bookchin or would appeal to the reactionary poor white crowd. it takes care of the fear of the government while promoting them to provide for themselves.

...

It really isn't that simple. I wish it was, but it's just not that simple. Some people, by astroturfing for decades or otherwise, just cannot change their politics, and they will never believe you.

I would rather do what the other user said and help our communities in urban areas where infrastructure is falling apart and education is bar none, and places like Appalachia.

The South is a lost cause, I have family there who are fucking Vietnamese and they call the civil war the "War of Northern Aggression": and other bullshit. It's just the enviornment they're exposed to, and the ideas, just like how we'll never probably be capitalist supporting going into whatever future we have.

It's just not explaining something they're wrong. They will get upset at you even mentioning worker's rights.

Not all of them, but to say that America is a breeding ground for collectivism just yet is a pipe dream.

We help our crumbling infrastructure and urban communities first, we give results. Then we show by example.

Words alone cannot change minds. Actions do. You are what you do, and you represent what you do.

Red Guards Austin - Maoists larpers but they actually seem to do some good things.

You don't seem to get it, they're against others getting welfare in principle (but fine with receiving it themselves). They don't care about the unnecessary complexity and degenerate incentives created by means-testing, they just know that that someone that is not their family is getting government benefits and that is unacceptable.

Socialism With Cornbread Characteristics. Red and gold stars and bars.

good thread tbh

As much as I despise Hoochie, this is absolutely correct
I'll be called a faggot for this, but look at Golden Dawn in Greece, they went from no-name neo nazis to a large political force/movement by helping out people with food drives and security for high crime areas


I think a large portion of that is pure ignorance, we have a lot of people here in burgerland who complain about welfare but don't realize that things that they use like medicare or medicaid are government programs

Very strongly concur.

Nobody denies that there's hella people who have that ideology. I'm not advocating trying to convert those people to leftism or socdem'ism or anything.

I'm talking about the specific subset of people who just get mad because (for example) they are a little above the income threshold for getting the Medicaid expansion from the ACA and then get forced to buy a useless insurance plan with high premium and higher deductibles, while people poorer than them get Medicaid for free.

If you think that the "someone poorer than me is getting free healthcare while Obama made me buy a useless insurance coverage" resentment and the "someone that is not their family is getting government benefits and that is unacceptable" resentment aren't related at all then I don't really know what to say.

nobody thinks that universal healthcare is going to make awful reactionaries suddenly take the redpill and be socialists. i'm specifically advocating *fighting against policies that help the hard-right radicalise disillusioned people into the hard-right*

the USian left is too fucking cucked to actually do this on a large scale (and not, say, just among their awful incestuous and exclusionary friend-groups)

this is literally a recipe for enduring failure

Trusting people on your word before your actions is a recipie for failiure. We help first, convince later.

The time of the educating leftist is over the more the future becomes grim. We need to act, not speak. Show, not tell.

Be who we achieve to be, not talk on what could have been.

This is not high school debate, this is legitimate class war going on, and the majority of the world population isn't aware, nor, are they willing to fight.

We convince by action. Going to them directly like door to door bible salesman will end in failure,

We know they're working class, question is, what exactly are you going to do about showing them that there's another way that doesn't have to end as badly.

...

The urban poor and white rural poor people have the same interests. Thus why liberals use idpol to keep them divided.

It isn't just liberals, it's conservatives. It's the entire American political apparatus that benefits from animosity. Despite different social ideas, economically they want the same things, and go more or less the same way to go about them.

Capitalism is the root to be pulled. These liberal politicians are just a branch of this plant.

uh i totally concur with you on that, i'm not trying to argue against anything you've said so far in this thread.

sorry, miscommunication then. I didn't get a lot of sleep last night.

I think those "oh just talk about guns and shit, they love it" is the sort of stereotyping that never works and that only lead people to resent you tbh. You think you'll come off as down to earth and as someone who gets them, but you'll probably come off as Hillary talking about hot sauce on that black radio show.

If you want to attract all demographics you need a proper centralized organization that contains people from all demographics, period. And you can't do that Democrat thing where you want to pander to, say, mexicans, and then you get a mexican comedian or actor to speak for you as if anyone working below minimum wage gives a shit to what a rich artist has to say.

You need to use social media, if you must, to directly target people who are culturally and economic part of their communities and smart enough to run shit and communicate ideas, and get them in charge of your organization's chapter there. And unless you have a centralized organization that can pay them or at least fund their activities don't even waste your time, because otherwise you'll only get dumb college students who think blocking traffic and interrupting people's brunch will stop capitalism and everyone there will hate you

I didn't mean "talk about guns and shit", I didn't mean "do fanservice meant to appeal at gun-likers", I meant actually *work towards ending stupid gun laws*, including nonsense "assault weapon" bans and magazine capacity limits. Talk is cheap.

oh also add "end bans on private sales of guns" (or as the gun prohibitionists call them, "universal background checks"), also hell, help make the Hearing Protection Act pass.

Nazbol

I actually live in the south you stupid rich cunt. If anyone isn't worth our time it's spoiled liberals like you.

Treat them like human beings and don't expect them to understand every Marxist/Anarchist phrase or term you use.

90% chance that this guy lives in a very homogeneous and well-off area where economic struggles are an alien concept. Most of these people have only experienced anything openly political in real life while at college. You can't convince them to oppose the ruling class because they are part of the ruling class. These people are so obsessed with identity because it's the closest thing to struggle they will ever really have to deal with and it makes them feel less like the spoiled shits they are; they want to be persecuted so they don't have to be the bad guy.

It pains me to type this but she really does like hot sauce

Let's not opresshun olympics this p l e a s e

In fact, this rule of thumb can be used to spread socialism to anybody.

And this is why you will be useless forever and ever and ever
