That such iconography could circulate for years within the US military and diplomatic-security apparatus underscores what the World Socialist Web Site reported six years ago in “Neo-Nazi networks exposed across US military”: fascist and white-supremacist currents have been cultivated inside the armed forces.
I’ve personally moved on how to consider these these people over the last few months. Seeing what a viper pit the DSA became was a wake up call for me re: Zohran. I can’t trust NYC DSA folks. Or most DSA folks.
The frustrating thing is these people should be close to getting it, right? I mean if they aren’t true comrades, who are?
There’s a silver lining in that these ghouls have to pretend to support some mild populist reforms now to be popular. It’s that or mask-off Fascism. If this was 2006 I’m sure this Platber guy would be a neo-con.
Some of them maybe. Many are young and this is their first time experiencing this and no one reads the theory that tells them this is how it goes. Many have no interest and are perpetually too invested in this hell state to want to.
And I’m very unsure if this populism, will bring anything good. Fascism uses populism for its appeal too.
Gotta struggle none the less.
