Did an AI write this? You didn't actually respond to anything I said.
Neither did you.
I clearly did, but by all means, go with "no u" and see how convincing it is.
You attributed some failed strategy to me and then accused me of purity testing states that are only aesthetically socialist. That response had nothing to do with what I said.
You attributed the failed strategy to yourself, and I accused you of it because that's exactly what you were doing. That's a response, to your comment.
As you yourself said: it's untainted by existing practice, there is no existing strategy as in its new. In relation to the numerous failed attempts at socialism through dictatorship it's better to try something new and not keep shooting the working class in the foot.
Ok, so what is your new strategy then?
Currently our group has been working on raising avereness of unions since there are a lot of white collar workers that aren't a member of any union. We are also trying to popularise the coop business model especially in the public sector. We are also advocating for wealth redistribution reforms. The USSR kinda ruined calling yourself a socialist(And calling yourself a communist here will more likely get you punched here) so a lot of advocacy has been about pushing for socialist ideas with different wording.
For more long term we are hoping to get unions more involved in government and possibly form a worker's party with the union members.
Ok, that's all well and good, but nothing new, so what's the new strategy you mentioned?
The workers party we are forming will be domocratic with no strongman.
Ok, but what's the new strategy?
Hexbear users don't operate in good faith so no point in actually trying to engage them in good faith. They will wear you out if you do.
We engage in good faith only so long as we are met with good faith, if you aren't going to respect us we have no reason to respect you
Well as long as you have a sub dedicated to "dunking on libs" we both know that is not true.
Hey now, the dunk tank is also for chuds
Just stop being a lib and be a communist. It’s one quick trick hexbears don’t want you to know
