Now listen here whippersnapper I've been around too long to not know that it is, in fact, helpful for your praxis to touch grass. Declare it political if you want, but don't bloody talk about politics while doing it.
Read Clausewitz: Absolute war is impossible because for a people to turn all its efforts to war, it would have to give up the things that it is fighting to defend. War being nothing but the continuation of politics by other means, this also applies to politics.
It is you, here, who is trying to make politics an absolute war, you're the one barging into a bar where people are singing the people's songs and dancing the people's dances and say "up, to arms! what are you dancing, what are you singing, you need to fight for your right to sing and dance!".
In short: Your praxis boils down to party pooping. Don't be a party pooper. Party with the people, then go back to your politics as others go back to their looms and mills.
Lol, say you are a westerner liberal without saying you are a westerner liberal
Congratulations, you found a very novel thought-terminating cliche. I'm impressed by your creativity.
you know absolutely nothing about us in global south.
Brazilian, eh? You mean the country with higher GDP/capita than no less than nine European countries?
Stop pretending to know, in any shape or form, what it is like to be born in Burundi. And don't pretend you're not a colonial state, you're barely better than the US when it comes to fucking over the indigenous population and that's not a high standard.
Stop pretending that 7:1 is an everyday occurrence and count those stars on your jersey.
