What is the “Cocaine Left?”

Symptoms of cocaine abuse are aggression, antisocial behavior, actions that are dangerous to themselves and others, psychosis, overconfidence and irritability.

A certain portion of our fringe is dangerous the same way that MAGA is dangerous. They’re uninterested in building anything, or accomplishing any policy. They want to set fire to everything in sight.

The Cocaine Left is hurting us, and making it impossible for the larger family of the left to thrive and accomplish things. And as someone who just celebrated 20 years of sobriety, I can tell you - the kindest thing we can do is stop enabling them.

If you think Russia, China and Hamas are the good guys, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you believe violence is a valid political tactic, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you think burning America down so your ideology can rise from the ashes is best, you are part of the Cocaine Left.

It’s not going to be easy cutting them off and moving on without them, but in the end we will all be a lot healthier.

    Coming back to this, implying a (loose) movement with a significant amount of POC are on cocaine is fucking wild.

    Oh Malcolm X? The black Panthers? They were on crack cocaine which is why he was irritable, anti-social and aggressive. That’s why Malcolm praised China, the USSR and was anti Zionist.

    Not like us mostly white “leftists” who don’t accomolish anything. We’re not under the influence, toe the line and accomplish nothing. Roe V Wade was overturned under our watch, military spending and IDF funding increased, but we’re better people who aren’t controlled opposition!

    Fucking 白左

        Empty platitudes for decriminalizing drugs whilst degrading people who are doing drugs is extremely typical, too. Not that I’m even on cocaine, but this behaviour echoes the “look I’m not against gay people but I wish they’d stop shoving it down our throats” line from liberals in the 00’s and early 10’s (and less commonly, now, I guess)

      Of course she’s on the same wavelength as this fucker.

      This motherfucker dressed in full Hazmat suit outside of a Chinese language learning centre in April, 2020 to “”“protest the CPC”“” and not imply Chinese people are fucking plague rats. Not to mention the borders were closed months before that (I know this due to the fact that I was supposed to fly from Syd to Wuhan for Spring Festival that year and that trip got cancelled)

      Mind you, that language school has been there for like 20 fucking years and has just as many Australian born Chinese helping out as people from the mainland or the Sinosphere. It’s why they teach traditional as well as simplified Chinese. It’s an apolitical organisation.

      His other “protests” (read: publicity stunts) in Australia have the racist Australian government telling him to “tone it down”, like going to the suburb with the highest number of Australian born Chinese and holding a sign that says “Fuck Xi Jinping” to provoke a response from people who are just going grocery shopping with their kids.

      He keeps trying to start beef with Hasan and the Deprogram/Chapo guys in a desperate attempt to get American reactionaries to latch on to his grift.

      Brianna, for the love of god, you’re married to a Chinese man and you were treated to targeted harassment by chuda during GamerGate. And now you’re buddies with a sinophohic fuckwit that harrasses Chinese people for a living. Most of his followers would have harassed you a decade ago! He’s part of the reason for the spike in anti Asian hate, endangering your own fucking husband. Holy fucking shit, this white 汉奸 is a moron.

      Lol Matt fucking hated cocaine. He probably had a stroke because he couldn’t give up cheeseburgers, but no one is calling us the Cheeseburger Left.

      Also, Matt’s ideas make sense if you are extremely well-read and also understand esoteria and the occult. If you don’t understand his ideas, or your complaint about them is that they don’t make sense, it is more showing your ass than his.

    So she is attributing all the social and economic frustrations to the use of expensive designer drugs? Very on brand for a failed politician from Massachusetts, the nimby capital of the world.

    What if i think 2 of the three are the good guys and one is the enemy of my enemy that i don’t particularly like in any way but still rank higher than the West?

    I’ve also never done cocaine

      Good guy/bad guy shit applied at the state levels is just babybrain shit. (I realize you are responding to her prompt. Not insulting you.)

      Gun to my head, forced to define who is good and bad morally I have to choose an anchor for that morality. Ok, I choose the United States and will judge them all based off the US’ actions.

      People killed by Russia/USSR in the last like 50 years? Definitely a larger number than I’d like, specifically in Afghanistan.

      People killed by Hamas? I dunno, like a few thousand, maybe? That includes IOF soliders whose lives I quite literally… don’t value. Sorry guys, don’t be in the fucking SS for Israel.

      People killed by China? If the cutoff is 1974 (I didn’t choose this to make anyone look good, just happened to be 50 years back), then that leaves China’s war against Vietnam in 1979. About 30K estimated killed on both sides of that.

      The US since 1974… holy fuck… you can just go from 2001 to now and already be into multi million deaths. I’m not discounting the deaths of untold thousands, probably millions more in South America, Africa, Eastern Europe, the collapse of the USSR (I’d put those suicides on the US too), but the magnitude of the difference is already made, I think.

      So if you compare Russia, China, and Hamas to the moral anchor (a beacon of morality! ™️ Bri might say) of the US, well… they’re basically like an unregistered earthquake, maybe Russia/USSR is a slight tremble, while the US’ death count is dumping Japan’s nuclear reactors into the sea and ripping an island in half.

      Dipshits like Wu (Bri? I don’t know wtf to call her for shorthand. Maybe just dipshit is fine) have absolutely no historical knowledge, or pretend to not know, of the horrors the United States has unleashed since its colonial birth but all the way up to and including the present proxy war in Ukraine, which it instigated and now has dragged on for two years, and the genocidal campaign of death that its colonial outpost has unleashed on Gaza for 7 months now (and dozens of times in the past).

      There is no justification for this violence and bloodshed. None of it was for legitimate self defense. The US hasn’t had a war of defense for anyone since fucking WWII. It’s all been not so cleverly disguised “lawfare” shit where they finagle a “reason” to start bombing or, fuck it, like in Iraq just do it even when the world is like “uhhh this shit is all just lies…”

      Anyone who attempts to seriously justify the actions has a soul as empty as their skulls. I just hope they at least financially benefit from cheering on the incineration of children… but based on the financial breakdown of the US vs dipshits who will vaguely give support to “the military” (I include Israel under that umbrella with US), almost all of them do it for free! Pathetic! Maybe Wu gets paid from her tweet interactions, I suspect she does, but all the people liking it and retweeting it, you aren’t even benefiting you evil, depraved fuckers! Hope the idea of the kids you funded killing helps you stomach the cost of your own kid’s X-ray when they fall off the playground and break their arm, you fantastic morons (thanks Finkelstein).

    “the cocaine left” is a very dumb moniker. People hearing you say “the cocaine left” will be confused. How much cocaine is left? How much did you start with? How long ago did you start with that amount? Have you been sharing the cocaine? Do you plan to get more cocaine?

    “We gotta denounce the people who actually want to do stuff so we can get back to what the movement is really about, smugly occupying the moral highground while losing every single ideological political and societal battle.”

    “If you are a leftist with any actual leftist principles, you are a dangerous kind of leftist that’s hurting leftism!”

    Imagine saying this and meaning it.

    This may be the lowest degree of self-awareness I’ve ever witnessed.

    Democrats have probably lost like 8,000 18-35 year old votes max due to the “dirtbag” "cocaine “peepeepoopoo” left, most of which they would have lost anyway without chapo because those people would have just used their eyes ears and brain anyway over the last 8 years. The reason dems lose elections is because they suck ass and run on bad policies that they don’t even end up implementing most of the time.

    Most leftists I know couldn’t afford cocaine if they even wanted it (which they usually don’t). I do some about twice a year on average, and almost always regret it.
