What do you think of the Canadian workers revolt, Trig?

Conservatives expect us to endorse every worker’s protest or strike but people protesting COVID restrictions are doing nothing to advance the proletarian cause in the class struggle.

I don’t believe anyone should be forced to be vaccinated, but it is incredibly irresponsible not to get vaccinated or take any safety precautions to protect yourself and others amid a pandemic.

You say you want "democratic socialism"?
In a democracy the people should be given all the information and be able to make the right choice. The people should take precautions to protect themselves and to protect others because it is the right thing to do.
If you are a "democratic socialist" then why do you support authoritarianism at every turn?
In an authoritarian state the government will withhold information from the people and force them into conforming with the wishes of the upper classes through coercion and force.

Paraphrasing Lenin; "democracy cannot work until even the washing women knows how to run the economy".
This is why Lenin supported an anarchist press.
You support censorship.
You support authoritarianism.
There is a workers revolt happening in front of your eyes and you say, "no thank you, I prefer siding with the owners"

I never said I want democratic socialism. I am far to the left of democratic socialists, an anarchist. I don’t see myself having supported authoritarianism anywhere. There ought to be no authority resting on oppression, coercion or exploitation, and for us to listen to and accept the advice of experts, scholars, researchers and other intellectuals, it should be done so voluntarily. But anarchists stress responsibility. It is irresponsible to do harm to others. That is what we are doing by defying the public safety protocols that keep people from contracting COVID. I think communism could handle a pandemic a lot better than capitalism, as a lockdown would be a lot more possible with mutual aid to provide for people while reducing the spread of a virus or disease. People would be more willing to trust their neighbors and brothers, rather than government officials or those sitting at the top of pharmaceutical mega corporations.

I believe in critical thinking and people comparing sources and deciding for themselves. Unfortunately this isn’t taught well and too many fall for dangerous misinformation that is spread so carelessly. Misinformation is a sad reality, and it needs to be dealt with seriously.

I’m not an authoritarian nor do I believe in censorship, but I do believe in dealing with active threats in the most effective way possible (not abandoning anarchist principles in the process). I am obviously not siding with the capitalists. The capitalists want to disregard worker safety and keep making profits. The workers are protesting the Canadian government, not their employers. These truckers are obviously right-wing. Do you really think they’re trying to establish worker cooperatives and abolish capitalist institutions? Obviously not. They’re being cheered on by the Trumps.

It should be obvious that I wouldn’t align myself with this cause. Conservatives are not allies because they behave as reactionaries, seeking to maintain or restore hierarchical and individualistic capitalist institutions. We do not share common ideals.

I support;
Limited immigration to increase the value of labor and decrease the value of capital.
You support;
Mass immigration to give citizens last access to labor markets to depress the value of labor.

I: radical free speech.
U: speech only for the elites.

I: freedom of movement and freedom of association
U: allowing governments to control where you may go and who you may be with.

I sound a lot more left than you are.

Oh, so you support communist teachers and CRT?

You’re hearing what you want to hear from what I’m saying. I didn’t endorse anything you’re talking about.

I'm fine with teaching

Critical Race Theory (which is not being taught in school)

What I am against is

Critical Race Praxis (which is being taught in school and is probably illegal under the civil rights act).

Also you just said you want to limit immigration and champion yourself as a proponent of freedom of movement?

*for citizens only.

If the working class are all now trump supporters, what does that say about your position?

They aren’t though.

The parties switched. You are just still living in 2012.

Are you actually insane?

It started in the 90's. Clinton was jealous of the GOPs ability to raise money, so he sold the party to the new emerging owner class (tech, etc. You will notice that the establishment GOP still has ties to the old owner class). The modern left has been bought by the corporations, this is why Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, and now Biden all believe the same thing - more wars and more tax payers money transfered to the corporations.
I don't think trump really believes in anything, but he is a salesman. He saw a vacuum in the market (no party for the workers) and filled the hole. This is why there are no "workers" on the left anymore, all the leftist are educated, rich, support the corporations, hate work and hate workers.
The parties switched and you went with them. There is a workers revolt against an authoritarian government going on right now and you fo not support them (you support the corporations that oppose them)

This is no longer about democrat vs republican... this is about control vs freedom.

When we take control of the means of production from the capitalists is when we achieve freedom.

LOL... you don't know it but you're already doing their bidding...
