    Your question was about the feisability of mass moments. Mass movements coalesce due to material interests, are made possible through class consciousness, and are fueled by the blood and sweat of the people willing to put in the work to fight for unity.

    I don’t know if “these people” you speak of are the reactionaries or absolutely everyone in the Imperial Core, but idealist notions of “paying for your sins” aren’t what make these movements happen.

        Okay, so do we start with the Blacks and browns like usual when we seek retribution or we going for something more modern with the gays?

          I still don’t understand how that revenge is supposed to be executed? Like waiting for china to invade and occupy all of the global north and kill/imprison everyone?

          Because otherwise these bombastic notions of revenge seem more like passive acts of feeling you accomplished something as a revolutionary when a middle manager father of three has to sell his family’s second car because he got fired.

            Well I guess this a new level of “I don’t see color” wholly denying the fact that non white people live in the imperial core. Or a new level of illiteracy reading “Black or brown” as white.

            Are you physically white, or just spiritually?

                  Why did you bring up minorities when I was talking about accountability of the whites, minorities don’t benefit from the exploitation of the global south that to me is tacit defence of reactionary whites who have for years profited and continue to profit from the exploitation and colonisation of the global south

                    Everyone in the imperial core

                    Hi again! This is you! Now maybe I’m just an illiterate black too eager to defend Massa but from what my small mind understands, “Everyone,” isn’t “white.”

                    So when my small stupid black boy brain reads that and is concerned about how this rhetoric is used for self-flaggation by white cowards that want it as an justification as to why their inaction isn’t just an excuse to abandon us and other oppressed people and sit on their lazy asses, I guess I just misunderstood and forgot that WE AREN’T PEOPLE and thus aren’t considered, “Everyone.” I’ll make sure to remember that and know it next time a white person wants to engage in their stupid fucking white guilt.

                    Also, we do enjoy the benefits of the exploitation of the third world, but at lesser degrees, not to correct you with my small Black ideas.
