“You must be fun at parties.” Uh why would I want to party with Nazis?

“So edgy.” If I cared what liberals thought, I wouldn’t be a communist.

“You’re just a larper.” Larp it till you make it, am I right? Also, what have larpers ever done to you?

“Nazism and communism are the same.” Yes, Nazism is when you want to destroy Nazism forever rather than fund it the way you do.

"Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good."

For some reason it never applies to the libs themselves. It's never:

  • We shouldn't let our dreams of ice-chewing austerity stand in the way of our chance of winning elections by doing economic populism.
  • We shouldn't let our dreams of total global hegemony stand in the way of our chance at being one important voice among others in a multipolar world.
