I just want a headphone jack, wired earbuds, and my healthy thyroid back. Dead serious

Isn’t this just standard practice for nuclear-armed states? Seems like abc is doing a little fearmongering

Ah, the same Reporters Without Borders gaslighting the world about journalist deaths in Gaza?

You know how it’s frustrating when far right reactionaries roll up in lib spaces on reddit spewing propaganda the sources of which they haven’t investigated critically? That’s you. You’re doing that here. Please stop.

Human Rights Watch? Seriously? Do you look into your sources at all, or are you just happy to spread imperial apologia?

Wikipedia is a terrible source for current affairs.

Your attempts to smear the three gorges dam project are part of a tradition older than the Internet. Of course, the human rights watch was all over that propaganda.

but the tianaghur squarocide or something. I heard it on a podcast gimme a sec

Yeah the us would never force anyone off of land.

Yeah, I butchered it also.

“Firstly, it is not true that fascism is only the fighting organisation of the bourgeoisie. Fascism is not only a military-technical category. Fascism is the bourgeoisie’s fighting organisation that relies on the active support of Social-Democracy. Social-Democracy is objectively the moderate wing of fascism. There is no ground for assuming that the fighting organisation of the bourgeoisie can achieve decisive successes in battles, or in governing the country, without the active support of Social-Democracy. There is just as little ground for thinking that Social-Democracy can achieve decisive successes in battles, or in governing the country, without the active support of the fighting organisation of the bourgeoisie. These organisations do not negate, but supplement each other. They are not antipodes, they are twins. Fascism is an informal political bloc of these two chief organisations; a bloc, which arose in the circumstances of the post-war crisis of imperialism, and which is intended for combating the proletarian revolution. The bourgeoisie cannot retain power without such a bloc. It would therefore be a mistake to think that “pacifism” signifies the liquidation of fascism. In the present situation, “pacifism” is the strengthening of fascism with its moderate, Social-Democratic wing pushed into the forefront.”

I am interested in your perspective on differences between the original writing and the use of the phrase today.

Angel of mercy, people are suffering All over the world A spanish boy could be killed every night of The week

From Adios Hermanos by Paul Simon

The rage only lasts as long as the addiction to the 24 hr news cycle allows. So, like, it’s already over.

Yes, you are wrong. You are also parroting Marco Rubio with the false allegations against Delcy Rodríguez. So, not just wrong but wrong, dishonest, arrogant, and gullible.

Please go back to keeping your mouth shut.

Wow. I see the first four or five things you mentioned as the primary enablers of “this sort of thing,” if by that you mean the theft of resources and destabilization of governance in the global south.

Please don’t apologize. I was going more for the “social democracy is the left wing of fascism” point. I was thinking of the sides of the coin as being the ideologies of each, not necessarily their version of the propaganda in the meme. I particularly enjoyed the way you reiterated your point in the paragraph beginning “How this relates”

Yes that makes sense. The premises are too shaky for the argument to be sound despite the valid structure (which the commenter did not use and I pulled out of my ass).

I was mainly writing it out as an exercise to myself but left it because it kinda worked as a joke lol

I do very much appreciate an earnest answer.

Could you clarify why it’s not good reasoning?

• A = u.s. abducts leader
• B = leader is a problem for the u.s.
• C = leader is a boon to the people
• D = leader is (likely) legitimately elected

Argument:

• If A then B
• If B then C
• If C then D
• A
• Therefore D

We just need “If C then D” to chain A to D since the comment up top didn’t mention it . Oh, I think I see a problem here. In the us with leaders we constantly have “D and not C,” and even worse than the not C’s are the nazis. Ok, I’ll stop.

For clarification’s sake, the coin is capitalism.

I think assassination as a political tool is a few millennia too old to be just a putin thing.

Sorry if this is too personal, but does she have, or has she had in the past, membership in a communist party a hobby which she did as only an amateur? It’s hard for me to take the perspective of someone who doesn’t seem to understand how monetizing a passion can completely ruin it.

At least Cody Johnston drinks the green supplement crap satirically?
