    it’s crazy how internet-brained the far-right are, they’re still obsessively fearful about their accounts getting throttled and shit like that whereas the left seems to have stopped being so fatally online in recent months. when eventually a real revolution happens in the west these people are going to be shocked when the revolutionary terror goes beyond social media and actually comes into their houses and arrests and executes them

      Why do you think men with guns are at my door

      Why do you think I’m being dragged out into the street

      Why do you think they’re shoving me into a van

      Why do you think they’re putting a bag over my head

      Why do you –

      Because we’re in a communist

          I meant it in a double sense. In the first place, like you imply, all the corporate media would censor revolutionary organizing and speech. Secondly, the actual revolutionaries will not be terminally online do-nothings; by definition, if a revolution is happening, it’s because of people who went outside and made something happen in the real world.
