You misunderstand. I think we should be trying to turn liberals into leftists to build a coalition. But I see your posts as a huge turn off to those who might want to move leftward. Then reading about how we leftys should keep each other honest hit me and I felt compelled to reach out. I’m sorry.

Seems I’m not a Leftist because I admit to voting for Harris. News to me. It’s actually a little insane to me. But getting berated by someone about it and responding with “help me learn then, show me the way” and getting even more heat? You’re not here to help grow the cause, you just want to yell.

Yes, and a lot has changed since then. I didn’t happily and proudly vote for her, sorry if I wasn’t pure then. But I’m trying to learn, so why not help out a fellow comrade instead of berating me? I’ll take whatever resources you got.

My post was the result of seeing 2 weeks of his posts. I'm just not seeing much of the tact there. "The disciplined revolutionary serves as a role model in every setting, not by the virtue of constant political diatribes and browbeating, but by showing the world what a revolutionary is like."

I feel it's much more sinister than that. They're going to come after the Left with that info.

My dude, please learn some revolutionary discipline. You're spouting off at everyone and I feel it will end up doing more harm than good in the long run. I love the passion, but you're acting as an agitator at all times. Excerpt from redphoenixnews.com/2012/06/14/o...
Vigilance Tempered with Tact

At this juncture, it is important to make a distinction between being a revolutionary at all times and being an agitator at all times. While these may seem to be the same thing, they are in fact quite different. Being a revolutionary at all times means having a revolutionary mind-set and following revolutionary discipline in one’s everyday life, whereas being an agitator at all times means being the person who cannot, and will not, shut up about their politics.

Being “always on,” being “that guy” who no one wants to talk to because they’re incapable of talking about anything other than Marxism-Leninism, is not productive. In fact, it has the potential of being counter-productive by alienating those around you, giving the impression that those who follow your ideology are motor-mouthed blowhards and cultists. It also lends itself to burnout in that it forces the revolutionary to expend their energy talking down virtually everyone they come into contact with outside of their political circle, leading to increased alienation, stress and disillusionment.

Instead of being “always on,” the revolutionary must endeavor to be a courteous and tactful person, who is unafraid to offer up their opinion when asked but feels no need to shove their ideology down the throat of every passerby. If people want to talk about politics, allow them a chance to speak from their perspective, and offer your own, while being careful to not seem to be condescending or insulting. When you conduct yourself in a respectful manner, you maximize the potential for your ideas and perspective to be taken seriously by the people your are talking with, helping to avoid the emotional and irrational responses that we have been conditioned to have by prevailing society. The disciplined revolutionary serves as a role model in every setting, not by the virtue of constant political diatribes and browbeating, but by showing the world what a revolutionary is like.

They’re using face scanning tech to see who’s protesting, they’ll correlate that data with the rolls and then use the surveillance state to crack down on us when we least expect it. At the grocery store, out on a walk in view of a Ring camera, etc. “We’ve got a nice little database” Get ready

Kigalas @kigalas.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Sure doesn’t feel one they’re struggling to carry out their agenda though. I haven’t seen much visible pushback at all. Same old complicit Dems with just enough to help lose. And caring about elections means you think that procedural ways can fix this, and it can’t. Did you learn nothing from 2025?

Kigalas @kigalas.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Consider they’ve already talked about deporting 100 million people. That to me says they’d use this to get a list of everyone who didn’t vote for him so they can forcibly remove them.

Kigalas @kigalas.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Everyone looking at election interference and not them using the voter rolls to get a very large list of people to abduct the next time around. You must assume and prepare for the absolute worst.

Finally starting to see some good things from people at my UU. Minds are changing, it’s great to see. Time to read more General Strike literature, the time to build something is now. Might as well lead the charge.

But the protests are framed as the evil insane Left that’s out fighting against the good immigration folks just trying to clean up America. Even this from the article he showed me doesn’t show many cracks on the right. That 17% of moderates think what’s happening isn’t going far enough is something

Kigalas @kigalas.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
I’m taking left and right, not Bluesky and X. The propaganda machine that’s been around for 35+ years is a well oiled machine. They see the 15-30 seconds about what’s going on in Minneapolis and believe it. This from that article doesn’t show many cracks.

Why? You think there would be cracks within this administration? Realize what kind of propaganda we’re dealing with here.

Kigalas @kigalas.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
It’s been this way for a long time, too. Every political message from the right has a clear target audience, the messages are all tailored and crafted to keep just enough thinking this is great and that we’re all nuts, which just widens the divide. They’re a well nurtured captive audience.
010
Kigalas @kigalas.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
I don’t think they care about the optics at all. Because what looks horrible and awful to us over here is widely celebrated over there. And they propagandandize all of it (and have for years) and it works. The same percentage of people who hate ice on the left love ice on the right.

Rocking out some Pro Drums is melting the tension away. Still getting better too. I should screenshot some scores for you all. And maybe this is the cure for my end of week rage - smashing the shit out of things to kickass music. Hell, I could even stream it. It’s how it all started anyways.
