Like I've said before (in a very different context): it's not that nerds are nazis, it's that nazis and fascists are basically Roman Empire cosplayers to begin with.

It helps that the average person takes better to "let's talk about inequality and what we can do to improve our society" than they do to "let's talk about how lovely jews and women are", re: proselytizing. I honestly believe that most people would be on the side of the DSA over the alt-right.

I honestly believe that most people would be on the side of the DSA over the alt-right. i agree but let's be fair, there's a lot of "let's talk about how lovely white people are" on the mainstream left right now edit: if you break down what socialists what its incredibly popular, the hard part is just getting past the barriers an entire generation has from being raised in the cold war

I honestly believe that most people would be on the side of the DSA over the alt-right. They are by definition outsiders. Nobody who isn't first alienated would ever give them the time of day, which I would hope gives the advantage to activists and organizers engaged in the political process. What is the alt-right organized to do except harass women over the internet and vote for Trump? They expected Trump to solve all their problems and are now out of ideas. There should be a new Berlin Alexanderplotz about a young anime fan who loses his job after making sexist jokes, and then Nintendo reduces the breast size of one of their characters and canonically raises her age past 15.

"Knights for socialism" is a weird name to me. I associate modern political use of "knights" with the KKK. Am I alone in this? Is your school mascot a knight or something?

Nerds are victimized because they're lovely people. Being a "nerd" only started being cool, because nerds have a ludicrously high disposable income and they develop identities around their consumption.

Anyone doing the Discord Channel for the combined DPP/DSA threads, new link here: https://discord.gg/CuVNusq We had a small invasion of anime nazis and other miscreants earlier so uh, you'll also need to ask to be vetted. GlyphGryph has issued a correction as of 04:15 on Feb 10, 2017 |

Phi230 posted:I've gotten 2 more people to say they're interested and are going to next meeting on Monday If I had any leadership/organizational/social skills whatsoever, I'd try starting a North FL chapter up here in Jax. My alma mater calls, but gently caress driving two hours on a weeknight. Might have to talk to someone at the next Progressive Democrats meeting here to see if if they'd be interested in being the face of another lefty group.

bullying is an instinctive response to abberation among the tribe and must be embraced as a corrective tool against those who would poison the tribe with their annoying social defects. this is also why it is important to purge from your leftist org everyone to the political right of yourself
