depending on what you mean by success
Horse ------ Your Cart
you’re missing my point. The current system is a means to an end
ah
ok I can buy that argument more
recall that communists in Eastern European countries often used lawful means to gain power
X
Dang, really?
in Czechia, I believe, the entire cabinet resigned because of Communist govt officials’ corruption. Guess what happened? The communists filled those positions.
I may be mistaking the country, but that scenario 100% happened
the good guys did the noble idealistic thing and lost control of the government almost overnight
well I will respectfully disagree although I might be completely wrong and off the rails
*this is what happens*
yeah, honor and principles are great...unless the enemy has none
Why the hell would you resign from a position of power as a form of protest?
That's, like, *really* dumb
exactly. And abandoning existing institutions is on par with that
Reminds me of boycotting elections, another retarded thing people do as a form of protest
sorry I took the go-off juice there but this is something I feel really strongly about
I would do my dude. All is fair in love and war, there really is no honour in diverse societies, or societies where a group is actively trying to take it over.
@Alex Kolchak - NY for the record wht year is that?
anyway, back what to what we were talking about
I doubt that communists came to power through legal means in most Eastern European countries
I mean, in Russia it happened through a literal revolution
yeah
I actually don't remember how it happened in Poland
I mean it's definitely *a* way
@Jacob the soviet union basically put it there
yep this doesn't sound very legal lol
so it's definitely a way
but but it's also not the only way
@YourFundamentalTheorum 1948 parliamentary elections in Czechoslovakia
well that was after the communist occupation
@Jacob there's still time to go in but the window is closing
Alright lads, what do you do when a loved one compares I.E to a certain hooded group, and refers to I.E as a "White Supremacist group" because Wikipedia and other news articles? I'm at a loss for words, any advice is welcome.
@The Eternal Anglo I suggest showing them our actions
Videos of Defend Identity are cool, also of the South Africa die-in
Well, that's a big topic and it would be something difficult to articulate without revealing your knowledge of the organization and hence your membership.
I might advise against that, but if you are at that step, I would say to explain that IE was founded to be something entirely new, with most members never being involved in politics or any other group previously.
