Why is the purple hair causing so many folks to get hung up on this meme calling out the Capitalists that pit the Prolitariat against one anothet in order to distract them from the class war being waged against them? Yall are automatically assuming that purple hair makes the person’s takes similar to your own. Like wtf?
It is also meant to be from the point of view of the Capitalist ruling class, who very much dont care about social or political issues, and view them the same as long as they dont threaten their ability to continue to grow their wealth and power.
They most certainly are not equivalent, but both are actively defending the Capitalist Status quo by not acknowledgeing that they are both fundamentally a part of the same Class. This meme is very much supposed to be a gross oversimplification to point out that Capitalists are the greater evil. Fascism must be fought and I will vote for a liberal to keep mask off fascism out of office, but I wont stop trying to point out how culture war issues are being actively used to misdirect the Prolitariats palpable wrath. Because arguing from the point of morality aint doing jack shit to change anyones minds on the right. Pointing out how they have been actively taken advantage of by the Burgouis to maintain power feels like the only way to stop the rising tide of fascism from a philosophical standpoint outside of open conflict.
Like the most scene chick I knew in high school grew up to be a prolife tRumper, who still dyes her hair a different color every couple of months. Y’all get way too hung up in optics. Fr fr.
Nah fam, race and social issues VERY much matter to me, but we must contexualize them as issues being used to divide the Prolitariat who at the very root of the matter have very similar goals politically, but are very easily distracted from them by right wing grifters using them to keep the Prolitariat divided. I 100% agree that bigots need to be called out and corrected, but i dont believe that is capable of being achieved by arguing against their view in the cultural war. The only way to get them to change their views is by pointing out logical hypocrisies on very root issues they care about, such as Corporations robbing the working class, and thereby slowly building their class conciousness and letting them realize their enemy isnt a liberal/leftist that cares about social issues or refuges seeking a better life, but the Corporations and 1% that have kept their rage misdirected for decades.

Beacuse it is a trope used by the right to try and discredit opinions that oppose them by relying on a biased meme.
My issue is how they are both saying the same words, as if the stances are equivalent. They are not.

I’m starting to think you’re some variety of nazbol.

If the strategy is to write so much that nobody reads it, it’s working.
Thinking Class and social issues can be discussed in a few sentences… 🤨
The world’s only complicated if you’re obfuscating something.
that’s such a wild thing to say lol. if you’re looking at the world and it seems self-evidently simple, you are missing something.
Wrote a paragraph explaining how you are wrong, but it was definitely too long for you to read so I’ll not waste my time and just block you instead.
This is the way. 👍
No, the world is plenty complicated. You just appear to be only able to parse soundbite level media.
You realize you’re on a site that has words to read
