i need an honest discourse, first and foremost.

so, what the fuck is trump doing? it's a political game. it's just red meat for the base. and, an honest force on the secular left - which i would expect the aclu to be, if nobody else - should call it out for what it is, not play into it by creating some kind of culture war around the acceptance of muslim identity politics.

nobody's wining an election in the united states on muslim identity politics any time soon, guys.

what these pseudo-left actors are doing is harmful to a broader movement towards communism. we need an honest analysis, not solidarity with systems of control against an executive order that doesn't even target one.

the entire discourse is in a parallel reality.
