Like, IDK, despite their political policy ultimately heading that of the foreign and economic policy of the west, they don’t seem to be the type to resist if military conflict were to occur against them, and say, Hexbears win against them…

Perhaps we can use them as a sort of hollow government opposition to laugh at, and claim that “we’re still a liberal democracy”

Whereas I can see right-libs (cons) at least having some sort of shoddy milita, if not military training, who would gladly fight for left-libs, like the Freikorps defending the Weimar Republic, and the Black Hundreds defending Kerensky’s gov’t

    Ok, I’m an idiot for saying what I said, but essentially this -

    Have you seen, idk, anti-communist forces against the left, when the latter destroys the bourgeois/reactionary state and rules in its place

    More often than not, the majority of the organized opposition are fascists, monarchists, militarists, and all the unredeemable reactionary elements you can thinking, from the Black Hundreds, to Contras…

    But you don’t hear much about left-liberals doing much damage directly… they’re merely good as figureheads and slanderers, now to think of it… the closest I’ve thought of such people like that are the Hong Kong protesters/rioters…
