What is the “Cocaine Left?”

Symptoms of cocaine abuse are aggression, antisocial behavior, actions that are dangerous to themselves and others, psychosis, overconfidence and irritability.

A certain portion of our fringe is dangerous the same way that MAGA is dangerous. They’re uninterested in building anything, or accomplishing any policy. They want to set fire to everything in sight.

The Cocaine Left is hurting us, and making it impossible for the larger family of the left to thrive and accomplish things. And as someone who just celebrated 20 years of sobriety, I can tell you - the kindest thing we can do is stop enabling them.

If you think Russia, China and Hamas are the good guys, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you believe violence is a valid political tactic, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you think burning America down so your ideology can rise from the ashes is best, you are part of the Cocaine Left.

It’s not going to be easy cutting them off and moving on without them, but in the end we will all be a lot healthier.

    I am sure this person stays absolutely consistent with this position!

    What if i think 2 of the three are the good guys and one is the enemy of my enemy that i don’t particularly like in any way but still rank higher than the West?

    I’ve also never done cocaine

    “the cocaine left” is a very dumb moniker. People hearing you say “the cocaine left” will be confused. How much cocaine is left? How much did you start with? How long ago did you start with that amount? Have you been sharing the cocaine? Do you plan to get more cocaine?

    “We gotta denounce the people who actually want to do stuff so we can get back to what the movement is really about, smugly occupying the moral highground while losing every single ideological political and societal battle.”

    “I’ll tell everyone that leftists are super cool and know how to party that’ll show em”

    Also “20 years sober” means she was probably doing a lot of coke in college and you know what that makes a lot of sense

    You don’t get to write something like that and insist you’re actually very sober 20 years actually in the same incomprehensible post.

    [The cocaine left are] uninterested in building anything, or accomplishing any policy. They want to set fire to everything in sight.

    Isn’t the stereotype of people high on cocaine is that they’re hyper motivated to come with a plan to start a small business or write a movie script? That’s why Wall Street bros and Hollywood scuzbags use it, they get high but also go super Type A on their work at the same time.

      Lol Matt fucking hated cocaine. He probably had a stroke because he couldn’t give up cheeseburgers, but no one is calling us the Cheeseburger Left.

      Also, Matt’s ideas make sense if you are extremely well-read and also understand esoteria and the occult. If you don’t understand his ideas, or your complaint about them is that they don’t make sense, it is more showing your ass than his.

      Of course she’s on the same wavelength as this fucker.

      This motherfucker dressed in full Hazmat suit outside of a Chinese language learning centre in April, 2020 to “”“protest the CPC”“” and not imply Chinese people are fucking plague rats. Not to mention the borders were closed months before that (I know this due to the fact that I was supposed to fly from Syd to Wuhan for Spring Festival that year and that trip got cancelled)

      Mind you, that language school has been there for like 20 fucking years and has just as many Australian born Chinese helping out as people from the mainland or the Sinosphere. It’s why they teach traditional as well as simplified Chinese. It’s an apolitical organisation.

      His other “protests” (read: publicity stunts) in Australia have the racist Australian government telling him to “tone it down”, like going to the suburb with the highest number of Australian born Chinese and holding a sign that says “Fuck Xi Jinping” to provoke a response from people who are just going grocery shopping with their kids.

      He keeps trying to start beef with Hasan and the Deprogram/Chapo guys in a desperate attempt to get American reactionaries to latch on to his grift.

      Brianna, for the love of god, you’re married to a Chinese man and you were treated to targeted harassment by chuda during GamerGate. And now you’re buddies with a sinophohic fuckwit that harrasses Chinese people for a living. Most of his followers would have harassed you a decade ago! He’s part of the reason for the spike in anti Asian hate, endangering your own fucking husband. Holy fucking shit, this white 汉奸 is a moron.

    “If you are a leftist with any actual leftist principles, you are a dangerous kind of leftist that’s hurting leftism!”

    Imagine saying this and meaning it.

    This may be the lowest degree of self-awareness I’ve ever witnessed.
