    Clearly, I’m So Communist Bro that I talk endless shit about the more socialist candidates - ones who support LGBT causes, Unions, environmental regulations, clean energy, consumer friendly financial regulations - HATE THEM and will always say Id NEVER VOTE FOR THEM because they’re not good enough. Meanwhile, not say a single bad word about the fascist party in the US, just keep trying to discourage people from voting for the other party. Specifically, the Democrat candidate is not good a an issue where the Republican would be even worse, so I can’t vote for them despite that they’re way better on everything else. That makes sense, right?

      It’s all about the absolutism. Until Communist Jesus descends to earth and magically, instantaneously creates a utopian state of equitable harmony, every single person is a heartless greedy warmongering ratfucker bastard who will never get support.

      This makes sense because of books. Look it up!

        I Read Some Theory™ and now I am ready to oppose to the death every movement to the left of the status quo EXCEPT those which match my policy preferences EXACTLY (or promise to give me really tasty leather boots to lick).
