You’re part of the problem if you solely focus on improving conditions only in rich countries

But muh Hamas

Killing figures is destabilising for any movement. When movements need unity around a certain problem they can default to whatever the leader says. When the leadership becomes unpredictably vacant, there can be succession struggles leading to splits. There’s a reason the CIA attempts to assassinate leaders

Yeah tbh if someone asked me this question genuinely I would ask myself if there’s some kind of counterintuitive truth. I can imagine learning that they would have something called “the shell” but that is not actually a chicken egg shell or something. Because science have a lot of surprises, there are actually good reasons to be unsure about any science related question

I watched it, morbid curiosity. It’s not even “funny because bad” tier, just upsetting

I think she would say something like women should’ve be nice to their husbands so they consider letting them the right to vote

You know fascism is running deep when the outrageous fascist dehumanises the left less than the self-proclaimed moderates

I can’t imagine the pain of never seeing a dollar again oh wait I can actually since my country don’t use them

Also I think young people often lack the life experiences to start thinking outside the dominant ideology. I remember being a teen and believing everything pop history told me about communism even if I had a very strong anti-establishment biais and already hated capitalism. It took meeting with maoists during uni to start questioning bourgeois myths

Mélenchon rose by 3% compared to the last one, in an election where poor people never show up to vote, I wouldn’t call it a loss

Reaching QAnon levels of analysis

Where I live there is some kind of masculine/ feminine alcohol stereotypes (whiskey/beer vs cocktails/wine) but whiskey cream is universal, it’s just too yummy for anyone sane to repudiate on the basis of not being masculine enough

Didn’t mean we shouldn’t!

Same tbh

Well can’t have MLs run everything

He’s right actually, fascism is built in liberal democracy while socialist policies contradict it

Nazism with environmentalist characteristics

I respect this opinion. I don’t really like the “separating” either, but I think there is something dialectical between the art and artist especially when multiple people are involved

Bad politics sure but I don’t think calling him talentless is of any help. People can have a lot of artistic creativity and be absolutely clueless in the realm of complicated matters. Now, I totally agree that people calling The Beatles the best band ever are extremely shortsighted, but in their sphere of influence which is western popular contemporary music they were pioneers and did a lot of wild and interesting stuff.

I’m not saying this because I’m some massive fan or anything, I just think it’s important to acknowledge that people who have bad politics aren’t wholly decrepit human beings incapable of doing anything good, because not only it’s factually wrong but also alienating for a lot of people and we don’t want to alienate people.

Settlers can’t defend themselves because colonialism is always an attack
