It’s a breath of fresh air to actually be able to mock Trump with some teeth on it that isn’t brunchy le Drumpf bullshit or acting like Chicken Little in that the sky is coming down in Trump because he was rude to a journalist on twitter. We actually stand to lose a lot more in another 4 years of either Biden or Trump unlike the breakfast crowd of bougie lemmy liberals that think he’s a Marvel Comics villain.

    Sometimes I think this community and instance might have some interesting views I can maybe learn from and about and sometimes, it’s just… I don’t know, like some kind of bougie fucking club for the self described intelligentsia

      Curious why you think it’s bougie? I understand that we can come across as smug or arrogant but I’m not sure how we ever come across as bougie or decadent or anything like that.

        its the old ‘socialists are all middle class educated liberals’ bullshit, if you’re actually poor its ‘you’re just lazy’, if you’re well off and a socialist its ‘you’re bougie’

        dont worry about it, they always find some cope.

      we literally want to destroy the bourgeoise.

      like, the debate here is between putting them against the wall immediately like the romanovs versus giving them a chance to surrender their ill-gotten wealth and be rehabilitated like Puyi.

        As an enlightened centrist, I want to see individual punishments for the bourgeoisie.

        For example, Jeff Bezos will have to work as an Amazon warehouse worker, with all of the horrible monitoring bullshit he’s inflicted onto his workers. People will be able to tune into a live feed of him standing in the corner pissing into a bottle so he doesn’t have to go to the bathroom. When he’s no longer able to keep doing that job, he’ll become one of the only homeless people in the world, and will be kept locked in a park with maximally hostile architecture.
