they are actually censored much more than fash are.
Please explain
lmao fuck crowder I hope he gets hit by a bus
Capital is not a homogeneous entity, and different factions of the bourgeoisie will support different policy at different times.
Something that may be profitable for one enterprise, such as polluting a water supply to save money on moving waste, may not be profitable for another, such as a fishing company that requires fish to be alive in the water being polluted. The former may lobby for deregulation of environmental standards such that they continue without getting in trouble, while the latter may lobby for the opposite. The fishers may fund green groups to induce grassroots support, while the polluters may buy off cops or goons to beat them down.
You can see how this goes, how it can be applicable to every aspect of capitalist power. Always keep in mind that the only principle that capitalists hold is profit-seeking, and they will eat each other or even construct the conditions for their own destruction for the right price.
Identifying as a Marxist will get you fired from basically nowhere except a Christian bookstore or the pentagon. You can wear a shirt of any communist leader. No mainstream platform will kick you out
Here's the thing. Having a broad political movement in the 21st century west, without the internet, is quite untenable. Even if the critical mass of social media's influence is negative, I do not see a leftist victory without it unless you perfectly seize the moment if and when a total collapse happens (a collapse much worse than the great depression).
They're going to start with the out and out 1488 types, then they'll target white nats that aren't as spergy and personality deficient, after that its the alt-lite. Even corporate funded sources such as Shapiro and PragerU are on the bad side of those who work at google.
There already is a widespread meme of Marxists, Bernie stans, etc. being "bros" who are either racist or at best are disgustingly apathetic toward POC and LGBTQIA.
I get you dislike the alt-right, perhaps even the dissident right broadly, hell maybe just all people with social views that were totally normal like 15 minutes ago. But censoring them is almost certainly just a first step to deplatforming everyone critical of the system.
How long would I last with this on my shirt?
Can only speak definitely for America, but youd probably be fine- especially if you're in a big city. People will think its a joke, maybe roll their eyes and move on. At worst you'll get some boomercon trying to lecture you.
Wearing communist shit only runs a considerable risk of violence if you're in a Republican part of the country that isn't some sanitized suburban hamlet.
Wearing anything even approaching white nat will put you in danger pretty much no matter where you are. Same goes if you have a bumper sticker to the effect of marriage only being between a man and a woman.
I saw a story about a guy in my city who got fired for being a Marxist. They even called the fucking cops on him.
That said, white nationalism isn’t hated because it’s subversive or some shit. It’s seen as obscene or vulgar, like dedicating in public. Racists aren’t hated because they’re any kind of threat to the political state, they’re hated because people think they’re assholes. You’re the political equivalent of open pedophiles.
And, of course, there’s the question of why the benefits of social pluralism should be extended to people whose whole politics revolves around their opposition to social pluralism.
The “far-right” is an incredibly loose term, I’ve seen the Conservative party in Britain, and the NSDAP rounded up into the same group, many people including this place appear to be incapable of telling the difference between any of the groups.
Any fascist that isn’t completely blind would have already realised by now that immigrants, gays, etc are merely being used to divide the people, and direct attention away from governments, and their corporate masters, and I’m fairly certain a fascist would have a far bigger hatred of corporations, governments, and even capitalism.
They don’t like immigrants I’m sure, but they know full well who is letting them in, and why. The reason why fascists will often want socialists killed outright is because they can’t tell the difference between socialists, and liberals, and often group the crimes done by liberal governments onto socialists as well, this is further explained by the fact that many liberals genuinely believe they are socialist, and talk about themselves that way, even if they aren’t.
At this point fascists have become a far bigger threat to modern capitalism, democracy, and the status quo compared to socialists, and the elites realise this, that’s why they go after them so often despite the belief that they would be allies.
