2/ Sometimes, in a debate, I would ask a Leftist to simply state their terms. Like terms of a treaty, I suppose. What things do you want that, if I give them to you, will make you stop?

3/ There is no stopping. The solutions proposed invariably resulted in permanent thought control. Bureaus of racial equity. Investigations. Speech Laws that never die. Affirmative Action that stays forever. Redistribution that never ends.

4/ End Goals are not the point. They never were. And you know, I was a fucking moron, because Socialists of the past told us this. The Revolution never ends. There are always new class enemies, new battles to fight, new demographics to subdue.

5/ And maybe that's the problem with how Red Tribe looks at their ideological opponents. They fight over ground. Some issue of the day. Maybe they even win... today. But the battle is fought again tomorrow, and the day after that. Eventually they lose the ground.

6/ Progress is eternal. Compared to that thinking, what are a few MAGAs saying "we're gonna build a wall"? You built a portion of a speed bump. That's all. Rightists all making the mistake of fighting the issue - fighting for the ground.https://twitter.com/TheLumpenprole/status/1423315061876142085 …

Red Headed Steppeson @TheLumpenproleReplying to @VarangianSkullProgress is eternal, by its nature. I've seen the term convergence used to describe the process, based on The Convergence of Rights and Utility by John Stuart Mill. The whole point is to converge all things, and yet this is impossible and just creates more, thus perpetuating it.3 replies 0 retweets 9 likesShow this thread -
7/ You think Trump stopped them? Nah. Trump was a surprise, a battle that due to a Hail Mary pass at the end, somehow drove them from the field. But 4 years later they were on the same field again.

8/ In the end, you can assimilate into the Eternal Revolutionary Collective, like a good Borg. Or you can resist it as you see fit - and you'll pay a price for that. Do as your conscience wills. I'm too contrary to be a good Borg. Just my nature. But I no longer expect to win.

9/ No. Many of them do not realize this. And yet, as the win Progressive Cause of the Day, they eagerly embrace the next one tomorrow. Many probably do not consciously realize this. In some ways, that's the beauty of Progressivism.https://twitter.com/TheLumpenprole/status/1423316878219522052 …

Red Headed Steppeson @TheLumpenproleReplying to @VarangianSkullThe thing is, its not even the thinking. Like, almost no prog actually thinks this way, but that's not the point. SOME do, but even they really don't get it, which is why you have old progressives hated and left behind. Teddy Roosevelt was a progressive. Cons quote him now.2 replies 0 retweets 9 likesShow this thread -
10/ And yeah, I'm in a Black Pill mood today. But I don't think I'm wrong, either. I've long held a general philosophical position in between Fatalism and Free Will. There's a track to history and politics. To shift it requires enormous expenditures of Free Will.

Replying to @VarangianSkull
I think what keeps me from being fully black pilled is that ironically, once you accept you can't convince everyone, or even most people, you simply start asking what you can do for you and yours, and create better things or prepare for the next things.

Replying to @MorlockP @VarangianSkull
It's akin to that old chestnut that once you stop caring what people think, you can do anything.

Like all things, acceptance of good ideas is on a curve, and those at one end can make things better for those on the other end, but they can't do it if they constantly worry about it. Civilization is a byproduct of those looking out for their ingroup.
