Look. There was a lot of leftists out here giving the GoP too much shine and too much rub with their claiming of the Donbass war money funneling is wrong.

If the red wave happened; they would NOT have ended the funneling of weapons and cash to the ukraine.

They would have blamed the dems for starting shit and causing a moral trap and NOW we cant pull out because we have to RELUCTANTLY fight the Russians instead of being enthusiastic about it.

And Im frankly done playing along with the anti imperialist left giving the GoP way too much credit simply because the republicans are morally lucky and currently morally advantaged.

These MAGA politicians are not some right wing populist thing that we should BELIEVE them about their whole anti war posturing. Stop. They’re full of shit and just as fake as the squad and Bernie.

    Yeah. PatSocs very SERIOUSLY underestimate how much the whole culture war matters to reactionaries. They already take neoliberal capitalism as a forgone conclusion. No sense in dwelling on capital because to them, the matter is settled. So now… All they have as an answer to the contradictions of capital is to deploy the state to hurt the “weak and undesireables”.

    So if anyone wants to pretend culture war stuff is illusionary and bullshit and the reactionaries know it; then how does anyone explain why these people go out of their way to modify their vehicles to roll coal? Is that supposed to be light hearted ribbing against people who are unreasonably concerned about that kind of thing?
