The brutal dictator Donald Trump, who led his country into disastrous wars and is known for arbitrary detentions and deportations, human rights abuses, and egregious violations of the geneva conventions, has been shot in an assassination attempt. The murderous tyrant survived with minor injuries as the bullet went past his head and grazed his ear. The billionaire-controlled media is reporting non-stop about this assassination attempt. There are choreographed displays of sympathy being put on by the regime and its supporters. Citizens are finding less biased information online from foreign media.

Despite the US government and organizations under its control such as the CIA attempting to assassinate our comrades a dozen times a day, they seem very sensitive to their own leadership meeting the same fate. The CIA tried to assassinate comrade Fidel 634 times, and other leaders around the world working for proletarian democracy and the end of capitalism probably get similar treatment that we will not even know about. On top of this, media coverage of Fidel Castro’s death was extremely one-sided and disrespectful towards Fidel, his supporters, and the nation of Cuba as a whole which provides more advanced civil rights and services to their citizens, who can expect to have longer life expectancy than those in the United States on average. Even though he continues to live, the missing piece of his ear will serve as a reminder of yesterday’s events and the odium that his tyranny has generated towards him.

I’m obviously imitating the western media, but I think it’s important to ask, why the hell should we care if this class enemy gets shot, as if we did not live the brutal four years under the regime of that man. It would be so unfortunate for the ruling class and the politicians of the United States if Donald Trump was harmed in some way, but as a person that is not benefiting from capitalism and is actively oppressed and denied basic rights such as health, education, or food by the society I don’t what they expect me to think. Do the liberals know the kinds of things Donald Trump and the United States government do on a daily basis? These people are not our comrades and do not even positively contribute to the state of the world. These are imperialists and fascists. I have no idea why the liberals are wasting saliva defending the actions of this man or trying to garner him any sympathy.

    First, I want to say, well written.

    Second, to this thought:

    I have no idea why the liberals are wasting saliva defending the actions of this man or trying to garner him any sympathy.

    I think it goes back to what Kwame Ture points out in The Pitfalls of Liberalism: https://redsails.org/the-pitfalls-of-liberalism/

    Most societies in the West are not opposed to violence. The oppressor is only opposed to violence when the oppressed talks about using violence against the oppressor. Then the question of violence is raised as the incorrect means to attain one’s ends. Witness, for example, that Britain, France, and the United States have time and time again armed black people to fight their enemies for them. France armed Senegalese in World War II, Britain of course armed Africa and the West Indies, and the United States always armed the Africans living in the United States. But that is only to fight against their enemy, and the question of violence is never raised. The only time the United States or England or France will become concerned about the question of violence is when the people whom they armed to kill their enemies will pick up those arms against them.
