No. As much as there are cynical takes about accelerationism by us tankies, no.

Capitalism in a state of crisis cranks up the dial on fascism. Shit is going to get really bad for a whole lot of people who don’t have the power to survive the violence of an unashamedly fascist state.

People being snatched up and disappeared to other countries, is a bad thing.

People being unable to get a job or healthcare due to being a member of one minority group or another is a bad thing.

Destroying the systems that try to keep our food and water safe(ish) to eat and drink is a bad thing.

Destroying universal vaccination programs and seeing outbreaks of diseases that were considered contained to the point of being erradicated is a bad thing.

There is not enough of a coherent “left” in the USA to be the vanguard that marshalls the workers you think are going to be comrades against Trump, Fascism, and ultimately Capitalism.

Find some place… as an example, hexbear’s instance has c/slop… to drop a link to the offending user’s comment or post and whatever happens… happens.

Short bullet point/talking point responses. Replies with things like, “This is racist/sexist/genocide denial/etc”, then disengage. You don’t need to get into a long drawn out comment war/debat bro situation.

Make fun of them for being a goober.

a 30-story skyscraper still under construction

So, the only building that fell wasn’t completed?

And nobody has had time yet to do an actual investigation to determine if any actual structural or construction issues were at fault, right? Last Friday was seven days ago. Am I correct in assuming that an investigation would take a lot longer than seven days? I’d also imagine that seven days isn’t long enough to recover from a 7.7 scale earthquake so the focus is going to be on more immediate matters… that makes sense right?

former Global Times editor Hu Xijin (胡锡进) confessed that the building “probably had quality issues.” Even this post was rapidly deleted,

So a former newspaper editor made a social media post about the building collapse. (Not a structural engineer or somebody who worked on the project and had inside knowledge or insight about the building but coming forward as a whistleblower). Then deleted the post.
