DSA, JDs & Other Scallywags | Extra Bulla COMMENTARY
My opinion on the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the Justice Democrats (JDs) who constantly undermine truth tellers online in order to protect their sacred politicians. Commentary.
There are people who claim to be on "the left" but in reality are either delusional or complicit to those who are trying to control a political narrative, meanwhile propping up seemingly incompetent politicians for which they campaigned.
These people are usually associated with DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) or JDs (Justice Democrats). These groups of people and their supporters do little to nothing as far as direct action, mutual aid and other meaningful acts of social responsibility are concerned. What they do accomplish is being disruptive towards those on social media doing actual work. What do I mean by that?
To boil it down, these people are trolls. They invested time and energies into getting politicians like AOC and Bernie Sanders elected. Since it has been revealed to all of us that we have been sold a bill of goods, it is the DSA and JDs who have clung to this fantasy that our “elected progressives” are legitimately trying to help us out, when their lack of results prove otherwise. Their belief and cult-like obstinate loyalty to these snake oil salespeople has led them to become fraudulent actors themselves. It can be said that some are “Ops” or people who work for political parties or even the government itself. Many are not even real flesh-and-blood humans, rather they are members of “bot armies” created to drown out contrarian voices to theirs.
A popular tactic used by these trolls, ops, bots, what have you, is to attack a prominent voice that continues to increase in popularity with people in all parts of the political spectrum. For example, so-called independent news outlets have been hammering comedian and political pundit Jimmy Dore. Now I’m not here to praise nor bury Jimmy, but rather to point out that he has become a lightning rod for the ire of these online shysters who claim he is a “grifter” when in reality it is them who are trying to grow and fleece their own flocks. And by association, those who go on his show and agree with most or all of what Jimmy says get heat as well.
As I stated before, the majority of these creatures are ops, bots or humans with inhumane goals. But there are some who are just plain gullible sheep. These folks genuinely care about society and the people suffering in it. But because they have these fears and insecurities that dictate most aspects of their lives, they cling to ideas brought to them by controlling factions because they are easy to digest and jive with their world views. For example, it’s someone who may not be for mandated vaccinations in their moral fiber, yet somehow get convinced that they are needed in order to maintain societal order. And as long as they believe the lies that they are fed, they will go along with bashing truth tellers who say things that disrupt their comfort zones.
These creatures also believe that the end-all be-all is electoral politics. Why? Because of the investment they have made in the politicians currently serving in Washington. They are bound and determined to see a return on that investment even when reality proves otherwise. And they will be damned if you or anyone else will bash their investments for being incompetent and/or fraudulent. In their universe, that is not in the realm of possibility, and YOU, the truth teller, are the one to blame for society’s ills.
Manufacturing consent is not a new concept by any means. But as social media and the rise of independent media has shown, it has taken on a new process of rotting people’s brains to the point where they not only vote against their interests, the lash out at those who legitimately want to help them. That is by design.
