    It’s funny how we can’t accept any kind of ‘incremental progress’ but it’s okay for every lib to dismiss everything ever achieved by AES because reasons. Libs love inverting history.

    ‘moving more centre just out of spite’ = already centrist or, as Mao put it:

    liberalism rejects ideological struggle and stands for unprincipled peace, thus giving rise to a decadent, Philistine attitude and bringing about political degeneration

    Doesn’t matter whether you’ve read every communist work in the library if you’re still a liberal at the end of it. May as well stick with Harry Potter if you can read Marx and Engels yet develop so few principles that you can contemplate supporting the centre of bourgeois politics. Imagine reading Marx and Engels and then supporting mass-murdering neoliberals to own the tankies.

      Liberals when they vote for a guy who goes back on all the tiny concessions he promised them: “Ahh well. Nevertheless. At least we kept a cheeto out of the white house!”

      Liberals when an AES lifts 800 million people out of poverty, increases wages at a higher rate than GDP growth, creating the largest economy on Earth: “Akshully Dengism is bad. Muh billionaires.”
