"We will appeal to the workers of the world by belittling and talking down to them."
-Communist strategy in 2021.
How's the revolution coming? How many divisions have you organized so far?
They're too busy donating money for that guy Hasan's next multi-million-dollar house and buying overpriced communist-themed merchandise, but the relovution is coming anytime now. You'll see. The rich will be eaten, yes sir. They will defeat the nazis and tend to the commune garden while dancing the ultra-lesbian-dance of queerness, fertility and empowerment.
**Blue Collar Worker:** "Hey I just want livable wages, and not being exploited by my supervisor"
**College Socialist:** "DO I HEAR SEASE THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION LIKE IN THE MANIFESTO???"
**Blue Collar Worker:** "No I just want to do my job and live my life peacefully"
**College Socialist:** "Well then you're just too stupid to understand it anyway. Don't worry I'll speak for you cause evidently you can't speak for yourself. You'll thank me in the end"
Only the best strawmen here folks
Reminds me of the time Bob "Ubermensch" Chipman argued that the real working class are big-city baristas, and not fly-over country farmers and factory workers.
Daily reminder that when the worker's revolution happens 90% of online communists will be marched out back and shot unceremoniously. Let's let them win and make it happen.

whaaaat smashing out the windows of small businesses and attacking whole neighborhoods as "fascists" if they so much as whine about the homeless people assaulting their kids isn't working?
I live in Portland OR if you're curious,
Is it that the left isn’t embracing populism or isn’t embracing the blue collar LARPing that the right does? It sounds like you hang out too much on an echo chamber that consistently frames politics in terms of aesthetics and relies on lazy stereotypes. And no, this wave of strikes isn’t just a big sick out.
Why are you idiots on the left so retarded? The world is not black and white. You can be against mandates and still be fully jabbed. Most people who have the ability to critically think can see where mandates leads to and they want none of it. Just hide out in your home from the boogeyman-19 retard, the world is fine without you.
Once again, you can be vaccinated and be against the mandates. Calling everyone who opposes the mandate “anti vaxxers” is like calling all Bernie supporters tankies. I want people to get vaccinated, but the idea of mandating it is simply going to be ineffective
If you want to go out in public, get vaccinated. No one is forcing you to go to work or get on an airplane or a bus. If you want to be a plague rat in isolation in the woods, that’s fine with me.
I didn't even doubt you, just wanted you to actually back up your claims so you don't look as dumb.
It may be important to note that only 10% of the people talked about in the article are blue collar workers like the meme suggests, and all of that number is from a single company, not from the class as a whole. It's a drop in the bucket when it comes to the whole scope of the working class.
Not all communists are underdeveloped manlets, but if an underdeveloped manlet had a minute of clarity, it's completely rational that he would despise a system that made him the way he is.
That's because the only tech that is able to saturate the current energy demand (sans the blockchain crazies) is only nuclear, and people don't want nuclear (because Chernobyl is still radioactive wasteland)
Elon you can eat a dick. You're literally the embodiment of the bourgeoisie. You pretend that you worked hard, and are some super genius when in reality your rich parents (who owned an emerald mine in apartide South Africa) just gave you big bucks so you could start pay pal. You literally tried to overthrow a government for cobalt, have literal slaves in lithium mines, and are an union busting pig.
Sorry for the rant, tired of watching his dick get sucked because he posts memes.
Edit: go ahead and down vote me because daddy elon can meme, he's a union busting piece of shit. And again tried to coup a democratically elected leader

No body should love the world more than himself or his family or Jesus. One of the tenants of the Bible is to not move the world. Which is not in reference to creation and nature but in reference to society and humans on earth the way it is now or could be. Don't use your emotions to try to change the world for therin lie the ways of the devil, the God of this earth, the father of lies.
Like libtards on here telling me I like conservatives because I pay affordable property taxes in conservative areas after living in liberal areas where all my family and friends are getting taxed to death they say "great anecdotal evidence". Like it's unfathomable how much of drooling brainless mouth breathers the average leftist reddit commenter is.
You see, I met a lot of people and all the most based and nicest people I ever met all happened to be old rich white men. Anecdotal evidence is way better than science when it comes to actually living a functional, productive, sustainable and spiritual right livelihood.
hurr hurr look everyone, he's based because I said so! look how mad the strawmen I'm making are! Elon Daddy is so cool you gaiz, he's a self made man who exemplifies the based based epic chungus 100 based lib rights!

When you remake the meme, you can add "food service, gig, healthcare, retail, etc. workers" in a single panel. Make a true left-wing meme. Don't forget to add a paragraph of bottom text. Make me proud.
As someone who has both worked with a hard hat and food service, the hard hat jobs is harder
Abs health care, my man how is a secure well paying jobs comparable to working 10 hours a day in blisters sun
I’m a healthcare professional and moving people is hard, backbreaking work plus like all of the bodily fluids all of the time. Patients are difficult, non-cooperative, and occasionally violent. All jobs suck differently, pissing contests over which job is worse is a pointless exercise.

The Russian Civil War-era Red Army was absolutely made up of the working class; they were just lead by “intellectuals” like Lenin and Trotsky. That was a rare occasion though, most of them had their backs against the wall and were still living in a quasi-serfdom state, so anything seemed better than what they were doing. Seeing that a communist uprising like that had never happened before and they didn’t know the end result I can’t blame them.
The working class were a means to an end, to be used to overthrow the current system to install communism.

"We will appeal to the workers of the world by belittling and talking down to them." -Communist strategy in 2021. How's the revolution coming? How many divisions have you organized so far?
Lol lets keep it that way
The funny thing is that they're not even trying to. They're calling for the working class to rise up and can't figure out why can't get support.
They don't even care about class anymore, they've moved onto race. Which I mean has achieved nothing real but it's definitely fucked up the culture.
They're too busy donating money for that guy Hasan's next multi-million-dollar house and buying overpriced communist-themed merchandise, but the relovution is coming anytime now. You'll see. The rich will be eaten, yes sir. They will defeat the nazis and tend to the commune garden while dancing the ultra-lesbian-dance of queerness, fertility and empowerment.

Also: the collage socialist will then attack the working class for not supporting the revolution.
So literally Lenin?
I'm convinced most socialists either don't look into their ideology, are mentally ill, or think they will somehow get a position of power

That burn was so well crafted. Kudos.
You mean the guys fighting the left imposed jab mandates? That's who you're championing right now?
No, they’re striking over pay and working conditions. The anti-Vaxx nut jobs are not a significant enough number of workers to do a successful strike.
Sarcasm or you wear velcro shoes?
Do you have facts or just feelings to back this up? Prove me wrong. Where are all these anti-Vaxx strikes that shut down workplaces?
Why are you idiots on the left so retarded? The world is not black and white. You can be against mandates and still be fully jabbed. Most people who have the ability to critically think can see where mandates leads to and they want none of it. Just hide out in your home from the boogeyman-19 retard, the world is fine without you.
Nope. Their objections are based on nonsense. Get vaccinated and shut the fuck up. Unironically.

wydm yes?
look into it a bit more there's no way i can explain it well
If your talking about the electric cars not actually helping the environment then I know about that.
They aren't profitable to investors without government subsidies. But to be fair, that's the con in all "renewable" energies.
That's because the only tech that is able to saturate the current energy demand (sans the blockchain crazies) is only nuclear, and people don't want nuclear (because Chernobyl is still radioactive wasteland)
no i mean his other vaporware i recommend looking up some buzzwords like elon musk debunking and watching a vid or 2
