Nina spitting truths as always. She’s on fire recently, so follow her if you’re not doing so already.

To be clear; everyone working in my government, particularly after today, is a Nazi, or someone who works for Nazis. Do you know what we call people who worked for the Nazis, in the Nazi government? Yes, that is correct, Nazis.

So Machado is certainly not gonna feel lonely on the list of people on my TV who are definitely Nazis.

Oh, was that too harsh? Are you feeling bad for the good career civil servants, working for the literal fucking Nazis, who I have just impuned? Cool, let’s refer back to that part where I said I was surrounded by people who openly recognize that this is fascism, and ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY refuse to accept what that actually means.

We call people, who worked for the Nazi Party, in the Nazi government, Nazis. Nobody says “the Nazi government and the career civil servants who hated them but stayed.”

“They’ll just find someone else.”

Then let them. “I took the job at the concentration camp because I was sure Hitler would find someone else” was not a good defense in court last time, and it won’t be this time either.

    “everyone working in my government”

    Jesus Fucking Christ… I swear, some people read “kill the liberal inside your head” and heard “turn into a rambling, insufferable edgelord that has completely lost touch with reality.”

    Do you even have the remotest idea how thoroughly fucked you (yes you, specifically - and specifically everybody around you) would be if every public worker in your country suddenly decided to up and leave their government job to fulfill your edgelord fantasy moral purity test?

    We’re talking everybody - from the street sweepers, to sanitation workers, to nurses and health inspectors. Just how far do you think you’re going to get?

    Even Joseph Fucking Stalin didn’t buy into this bullshit narrative of yours - neither did the hundreds of thousands of troops and resistance fighters who marched into Germany (including anarchist ones) and saw every kind of Nazi depravity with their own damn eyes.

    But you, edgelord supremo, know better than them, right?

      You’re right, it’s much better if the government agents prop the nazi regime. A strike of any sort is totally edgelord behaviour.

      Fucking cringe, mate.

        Who is propping up this regime, db0?

        The people who collected your garbage this week, perhaps?

        Howzabout the plumbers who ensures that there’s water coming out of your taps? Perhaps them?

        A strike of any sort is totally edgelord behaviour.

        Who said anything about strikes? If the aforementioned garbage collectors and plumbers leave their government jobs out of some moral prerogative they can’t actually go on strikes, can they? The only place they’ll be “picketing” is on the unemployment line.

            Oh, you’re “getting psychic damage?”

            I’m getting “psychic damage” constantly having to try and talk sense into “anarchists” who believe distancing themselves from the working class and maintaining the correct level of edgelord vibes will (somehow) magically change anything.

            Don’t bother banning me… I’ll show myself out.

            Yeah no, that’s not at all what they’re doing. Or do you disagree with what they said and think we should be killing plumbers and garbage men?

            Grow up. Maybe read up on just how many people are employed by the US government at every level, and what some of those jobs actually are.

                Nice red herring.

                I like how you can not engage in any of the points of the other argument and still pretend like you’re being the reasonable one. You throw out logical fallacies and think that makes you correct. You’ve ignored two arguments before this comment just attacking the other person, ignoring their points. It appears that you don’t actually have any ground to stand on and are just trying to be on offense so you don’t have to be on defence.

            This is why tankies and communists are not allies of anyone. They put personal survival ahead of the survival of others. They have zero capacity for self sacrifice.

        It is better to have them there, rather than have the government be 100% Fascists. People who don’t support them can slow things down by “accidentally” doing things wrong/poorly. If they all leave and are replaced by actual Fascists who want to support the regime, they will do things as well as they possibly can. Also, having people in there who can feed information is also really useful.

          This is the 22 years of slowing down you’re talking about:
          ICE killings

          At the least you’re honest on wanting them to stay there, accelerating genocide.
          .001% Nazi state is still too many.

            Lol. I don’t think you understand how this all works. Do you think it’d be higher or lower with 100% of people working for them supporting what they want?

            There’s a very real and useful tactic called malicious compliance, where you do what’s written but not what’s intended, to slow down the machinery. It’s a useful tactic, but you need people on the inside to do that.

            If you still want them to leave after reading this, I’m assuming you’re on their side. You want them to leave to make room for obedient workers. If so, fuck off. You’re too easy to read.

              Am I talking to a robot, or do you blatantly ignore the fact that ICE accelerated it’s “machinery” after 2025, and that malicious compliance is having the opposite effect, as I replied to you back?

                How can you know it’s having the opposite effect if they’re accelerating their machinery? The result could easily just be the acceleration from increased spending and recruitment being more powerful than the malicious compliance.

                If they leave, do you think those jobs remain vacant? Obviously not. They fill them with new employees, who will probably be sycophants. They’ll be happy to do the job as desired and make things worse.

                  Because effectively “They [have] fill them with new […] sycophants. They’ll be happy to do the job as desired and make things worse.” It’s 2026, they’ve point blank executed 9 people in Minnesota, a Blue state.

                    Alright, I’m done. I moving on. I don’t know if you’re actually just trying to help them or if you’re so set in your stupid idiology to realize that you’re helping them. Everyone getting out of their way is what they want. Malicious compliance has been used historically to great effect to slow down authoritarian regimes. If you can’t recognize that then you aren’t arguing in good faith.

        Uhhhh, I thought this was strictly an anarchist instance? Not a prog-lib one. You think ditching tried and true socialist praxis is “edgelord behaviour?” OOps
