Freaky. Me too. Bernie did it for me, and i do work in a nursing home. Though i was never exploited like you were.

Do you have a link to the link in the OP pic?

I’ve read it, and i’m reading it again with new knowledge. Short version: Liberalism is bad. Fascism is bad. Corrupt soviet style communism is also bad. Liberalism is bad. We are in favour of things that are not this. And esp not liberalism.

What are we in favour of? things that are not these.

There you go. Now you know.

I’ve read Settlers, recently. Most of it i already knew, but discovering how much of the US was built by Chinese people, and then how badly they were treated afterwards, was new to me.

My issue with the book is an undertone of ‘You can’t trust whitey’ And where many people take that undertone. On some forums, i have had people [only 2 so far] tell me not-jokingly, that concentration camps, and mass extermination is fine, as long as it happens to white people. Basically, the nazis were right, they just had the wrong targets. And they cited this book as to why.

And when you bring this up, people jump to white fragility and so on, as explanations as to why you MUST be hating the book. What the book says is not new. And much of it is true.

My issue with it is that it seems to be purpose written to stop Fred Hampton. Because he wanted to unite the working class, black, brown and white. And you have people citing this book as reasons to abandon the white members of the working class to the far right, and condemn any attempts to reach them in a revolutionary context.

there are better books saying the same stuff, without the drama. https://erich-arbor.medium.com/the-anti-marxist-elitism-of-j-sakais-settlers-409ff2d496ee

You admit your stupidity. You call it garbage, but also admit to never having read it.

That is un-critical, un marxist.

No investigation, no right to comment.

Which just about summed up their entire petit-bourgeois, individualistic and faux revolutionary world view

That sure clarifies things. Thanks.

I suspect it’s deliberate. They don’t want China, Vietnam or Korea to happen to them.
