Look what you made me do!
I wouldn’t have considered genocide, if you were so idealistic!!
If you had only partnered up with the people who only car about money, we could have returned to the status quo.
Mate, the goal is to be idealistic. No one is perfect, but we want to strive for what’s the best and hope we reach there some day.

Partnering with liberals is idealistic. They always stab you in the back at the first opportunity.

I disagree. Socialists often tactically partner with liberals on shared goals, despite the risks. Knowing that, when forced to choose, liberals have historically sided with fascists, because fascists will never upend capitalism.

It makes tactical sense to partner with liberals in some contexts, like a national liberation struggle, and to put aside lesser contradictions to focus on the principal contradiction. It doesn’t make sense to partner with liberals while under capitalism, especially not within the imperial core. The liberals in congress are happy to stand aside because they don’t have a shared goal in stopping fascism.

What, a Zionist genocidaire giving a performative twenty five hour faux filibuster is not stopping fascism?
