destruction of America is better
Not the question though, right?
Do you have a plan for that or...?
Red seems to be doing a good job of it.
You Americans seem to be doing that on your own
Oof. That way lies quite a bit of collateral damage.
At this point I don't consider gringos collateral. It's your fucking country doing stuff like Operation Phoenix, Gladio, Condor, and countless other black ops and coups and the systematic starvation of the global south, and y'all only care about what they'll do for you, in the singular.
I'm sorry for the children in the US and the immigrants/indigenous, the rest of y'all have had plenty of time to straighten things out and it's always this "vote blue you fuckin traitorous pleb" shit. I see friends in the PSL working their ass off and getting chewed out by the DNC primary revolutionaries. I don't think it's unreasonable to resent y'all giving us Monopoly money (that you can only spend in the ~~company store~~ US treasury) in exchange for making all your shit and growing most of your food at gunpoint while you argue about whether Bezos should get all of it or if you should take some from him.
That's the thing though. The MIC hawks that do all the evil shit will be just fine, they've got money and connections. Most of their supporters will be fine for a good while, they're the right color. The collateral damage is primarily going to be the children, the working class, the immigrants getting sent off to camps.
The people most responsible for the evil done by this country will be the last ones to suffer, if they're not long dead by the time "find out" comes home to roost. The bulk of the suffering will be the people who hate it as much as you.
That's why it's better to join a good org like PSL, so that the working class can actually take charge, rather than walk hand in hand into barbarism. We need to learn from what's worked in the past to create a better future for all of us, and that starts with proper theory and practice. I made an introductory Marxist-Leninist reading list just for my own use when I try to agitate and educate others. I think that would be a good place for you to start if you haven't started reading theory yet.
Returning to the beginning of this thread, the DNC and GOP are both relatively the same when it comes to foreign policy. They already are close to the same domestically, but they are near identical for the global south, because the US Empire is the world's imperialist hegemon. The working class needs to work towards decolonization, anti-imperialism, and socialism, and it can only do so through its own party, not bourgeois parties. We must be practical, simply trying to work with the tools the empire wants us to will never work.
Like 1% according to the non redblue voters
Do you have a better plan or...?
