    Looking forward to your explanation of which leftist organization organized this event and how streaming video facilitates operational security.

      Wait, ignoring all of the other stuff, why does protest and action have to be leftist to be legit?

      There are other segments protesting, including democrats, who are not leftist.

        It doesn’t have to be leftist to be legit. But, the organizers also wouldn’t make so many elementary mistakes if they were legit. My brief post is far from the comprehensive list of the red flags present.

        General strike. Shutdown everything. Economic pain is the only thing that hurts the broligarchy.

        I’ve many ideas. But, it’s a red herring that I’ll not facilitate.

        The topic we’re engaging on is that a moderator should be able to explain who organized the event they’re supporting and why steaming video does not violate basic operational security.

        I’ll add that moderators that double down on logical fallacy probably shouldn’t be moderators.

          “I have many ideas. They live in Canada, you wouldn’t know them.”

          If you don’t like it here, nobody is forcing you to be here.

            Your best defense of this event is a red herring, to suggest I find my way out and to engage your alt.

            That’s not good. Not good at all.

        After decades engaging theory and praxis, after a half dozen books on the specific topic, after suggesting the core text on the topic to you, I now need to watch some fuckhead’s video to explain the basics?

        I’m not convinced. Not even a little bit.

          That fuckhead has been organizing for the past 15 years. You’re unwilling to do any research outside of what you’ve read and can reinforce yourself. You weren’t aware of this protest before you read it on the news and since you didn’t hear it through the grapevine you don’t trust it as you cannot control it. You are the very example of a terminally online leftist. Touch grass. There’s no conspiracy against you here. And you’re getting defensive. You might want to investigate why.

          With all your learned reasoning why don’t you define in your own words what revolutionary optimism is. I’m not referring to the dua lipa song.

            Volume of logical fallacy also won’t work. You should learn to integrate multiple types of fallacies into more succinct presentation such that it’s not so easily recognized.
