Happy May Day!

Try getting off imageboards and going outside a few tikes a week. "Normie" is a funny meme, not a reflection on reality, and you're the braindead piece of shit if you think imageboard culture has literally anything at all to do with leftist politics. Every single leftist revolutionary soul in history has been what you would consider a "normie."

Nice sealioning. Go back to Holla Forums.

I don't know what sealioning is but like I said sorry. I had a shit day.

Okay, comrade, but try not to say things that aren't true just because you are angry. That is a good principle to follow in general.

I've been canvassing for Corbyn, believe me when I say that the people are getting the government they deserve.

I did the same for Sanders, I hear you. But the voters do not necessarily reflect the people, nor does the minority necessarily deserve to suffer under the tyranny of the majority. Much social change takes place over decades. Many advances we take for granted happened within the lifetime of our living relatives. We can only provide the alternative, strive to be reasonable, affect change where we can, and wait for the tide to turn.

You know the average worker is a Republican who hates anything to do with socialism don't you?

The average person isn't American.

Not even true at all. Most people don't know anything about that stuff. Zero political consciousness.

Most potential voters don't even vote except in presidential elections and even then the turnout is usually less than 60%. Most people who vote aren't part of a political party. Most people have no idea what Socialism is and think it's social democracy, with or without the "from the barrel of a gun" part. Most people are apoliticals who hate politicians and the 1%.

You know that you don't know anything about the average worker, at all, don't you?

I've seen nothing to convince me that the 'lemming theory' isn't correct so far, the people are nothing but cattle to be led to the slaughter. Until the resource wars nothing will change and by that point it'll be too late anyway. The people don't want saving and they don't deserve it anyway. I only cry for the animals who have to suffer for our sins

Sorry, but I will never accept such reductivist, dehumanizing, cynical rhetoric. I have too much empathy for human suffering. An injury to one is an injury to all, and I will fight for a better future to the bitter end.

Oh, well, I guess I'm just in a bad mood. I consider myself a cynical optimist, but there sure isn't much cause for optimism lately. If ordinary people really gave a shit we could bring down the bosses and the tyrants tomorrow. How much blame can we really take as leftists when the people won't meet us half way? I wish we could just have our own planet or something.

Who said anything about taking blame?

Well, nobody in this topic I guess.

Sorry to be a drama queen or whatever.

Rosa Killers.

What's the source of the gif?

At the event I attended in New York we even had the Mayor as a speaker. I hadn't expected that at all. Red flags waving left and right, and freaking de Blasio shows up. It was almost surreal.
