  • A: It completely undercuts the seriousness of your comment and makes the whole thing come off as a tirade by an edgy teenager.

    So you disagree with the tone and not what I'm saying? Because if so, that sounds like a "you" problem, i.e. you're more interested in the tone of a message than its content.

    B: Jokes don't get funnier every time you repeat them, it was mid the first time and eye roll worthy by the 3rd.

    It's not a joke and it's not supposed to be funny. I genuinely hate the USA and everything it stands for.

  • My comment was in response to a comment about AmeriKKKans having "Stockholm Syndrome", which as it turns out is not a real or valuable diagnosis. However, I do not disagree with the implied critique of AmeriKKKan people as being feckless and servile people.

  • AmeriKKKa is a settler-colonialist project, and the entity and its defenders deserve zero respect. I mentioned AmeriKKKans because the person I replied to used Stockholm Syndrome to critique AmeriKKKans on a post critiquing the AmeriKKKan healthcare system, so critiquing AmeriKKKa is relevant here. And I don't like spelling AmeriKKKa as part of USA correctly because (1) places like Central America and South America should be distinguished from the United States of AmeriKKKa, and (2) it offends the people who need to be offended, i.e. people who still feel affinity for the AmeriKKKan project and people who tone-police others who are just brutally honest in speaking their minds.

    You are literally posting from an anarchist Lemmy instance, why TF is this controversial to you?

  • Reminder that the term Stockholm Syndrome was coined to blame victims for being rightly more afraid of the police than their captors:

    In [Jess Hill's] 2019 treatise on domestic violence See What You Made Me Do, Australian journalist Jess Hill described the syndrome as a "dubious pathology with no diagnostic criteria", and stated that it is "riddled with misogyny and founded on a lie"; she also noted that a 2008 literature review revealed "most diagnoses [of Stockholm syndrome] are made by the media, not by psychologists or psychiatrists." In particular, Hill's analysis revealed that Stockholm authorities, responded to the robbery in a way that put the hostages at greater risk from the police than from their captors (hostage Kristin Enmark, who during the siege was granted a telephone call with Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, reported that Palme told her that the government would not negotiate with criminals); as well, she observed that Bejerot's diagnosis of Enmark was made without ever having spoken to her.

    Otherwise, we probably agree that AmeriKKKans are a feckless, servile people.

  • No politician can be reformist.

    Hmm...I agree with everything that comes after this.

    When I say "reformist", I really mean someone who advocates small, gradual changes to society, in opposition to revolutionary changes. So most anarchists support revolution and are not reformists.

  • You know, your image has kinda been my response to life, i.e. stubborn refusal to stay completely down, but in this specific instance there is a compelling argument against voting.

  • I mean he could say "we're gonna fire the whole-ass NYPD on January 1st". Because we both know he's gonna get walked back from the most liberatory position, so you might as well start with the most liberatory position possible if you're going into reformist politics, i.e. reformism benefits from the door-in-the-face technique.

    What Mamdani can do, and I hope will do, is improve material conditions for enough new yorkers, that various city-council members will be replaced with workers that can actually start defunding the NYPD and reforming what policing is in NYC.

    I mean if we replace "reforming what policing is in NYC" by "abolishing the NYPD and forming free community defense organizations in finite time" then yeah I'm with you. I always do hope that reformists like Mamdani get crumbs for the working class, but basically this always happens:
