Whites and Chistians voted Trump in all demographics
This is from r/the_donald
Zizek
As expected.
Young voters overall still voted dem.
Right Wing is far more entertaining in the face of a society who requires entertainment & lives for the spectacle. Left wing is boring, lame, and has been killing memes, comedy, and entertainment of all aspects because "all forms of art & entertainment that isn't a soviet painting depicting a bigender trans drag queen is RACIST AND SEXIST". I'm transgender and when I step into the identity politics world, jesus fuck it's OFF THE RAILS, I can't keep up.
Even I'm getting bored of leftism. We just infight all the fucking time and can't get anything organized. I think I need to stop doing this so much and go make flower beds for my garden to save the bees and get off the internet.
Try harded Zig Forums
Yeah but the young demographic that does anything voting Trump
Not Zig Forums. It's truth. I participate here often. Check out Society of the Spectacle by Debord. This US society needs to be entertained, they need to get high on entertainment, distraction, celebrity. Alt-right & liberalism checks all of those boxes for the everyday American consumer.
Zig Forums is ideologically diverse (as the name suggests), but the common point of "leftism" is progress (as opposed to reaction) from the status-quo (often capitalism). You won't get banned as long as you don't support capitalist imperialism.
Because most leftist groups are specialized think-tanks on a certain resolution of issues (statists/anarchists, market/planning, centralism/federalism, etc).
Right-wing ideologies are often not incompatible because they are calling for either the status-quo (capitalism) or one of its previous incarnation (classical liberalism, christian values, nationalism, etc).
Because leftism theory often require an intellectual introspection and critisism of society, while right-wing groups are just calling for something that is already established.
I can agree to a certain extent, but often leftists groups will necessitate you to follow a specific model or talking-point so as to follow praxis or further debate within this specific model, instead of being a generalist philosophically diverse community.
The only common idea is to move further from the status-quo, which often depend on the overthrowing of the state, but after that, it's every ideologies for themselves, because they are often fundamentaly incompatible.
Market anarchists would disagree.
But the resolution to thoses specific problems within capitalism can be dealed in several incompatible ways, as in some might consider a market economy to not be the underlying (as in structural) issue of capitalism, but instead private property or capital accumulation.
This is what propaganda is supposed to help with.
Not when you "believe what I believe", but when you "understand my point", often explicited more accurately within books, so that the debate can continue without misconceptions.
They should, as it is supposed to be their interest to inform themselves, but then again, propaganda is supposed to help here.
I agree idpol is counter-productive.
If they are arguing in good faith there is no reason to reject them.
This has been theorized by Leninism with the vanguard party.
This is an issue if their beliefs are fundamentally incompatible with the in-group world-view.
I used to be left, when I was stupid. I was let down. But no more! I'm all right now!
Sounds like you want to invite a bunch of liberal class traitors to inflate our numbers so you feel better about yourself.
I don't really want to associate with people that don't have a strong foundation. That includes a lot of reactionary leftists that inhabit this board.
