Back once again with the Woke behaviour
Trump is a home grown virus nurtured by American capitalism, American privilege, and American racism. Russia is merely taking full advantage. When will US liberals develop the courage needed to escape their indoctrination and achieve clarity?
Yeaaahhhh that's kinda *all* you're allowed to do though, so calibrate your gratitude accordingly. (And by way of comparison, I have exactly the same right to do that in Spain, where I live. As do residents of the 27 other countries in the EU.)
Amazing how our Laura can Nazi the obvious right in front of her nose. Can't imagine why...
A feature they clearly share with American liberals. Cold War propaganda really did a number on the US population. Believing "Communism is when Russia" is incredibly politically illiterate. Fun fact: Russia has been a capitalist country since 1991.
There are still tons of elderly British Boomers (and younger) weirdly under the impression that they lived through WWII, so it probably worked out. Me? I'm living in fear of having acoustic versions of Queen & Rick Astley songs performed at me in my dotage.
And not all communists are Bolsheviks/Maoists/anarchosyndicalists; and not all capitalists are neoliberals/protectionists etc. It's a sets/subsets sort of deal, and generally how ideologies work out when applied practically.
Yeah, like *that's* the definition MAGA is using, rather than "anyone who opposes us who can't previously be smeared as gay, trans or not white."
What's to celebrate? It's like trying to celebrate your kid's 16th birthday party while your house is burning down and being looted by bikers on meth.
Nobody paying attention falls for The Glorious People's List bullshit any more. They're too busy seeing decent people losing their rights to protest or go for a piss, or being locked up as "terrorists" at the behest of the USA and Israel, or having fascist surveillance systems foisted on us or...
This is a very representative apartment block in Calle Romero, a street in one of the poorest districts of Seville, southern Spain, EUROPE. See all those little boxes all over the walls there? Guess what *they* are? Some people need to shut up about stuff they know nothing about.
Fuck *any* hierarchy of healthcare beyond medical need, and fuck genAI.
That's a reasonable position, but for me other people's political illiteracy is their problem, especially in the USA, where their political compass and terminology is totally fucked. I mean, why let someone who thinks *this* 👇 is accurate affect how you self-identify?
Fascist propaganda always paints its official enemies as simultaneously weak and effete AND a terrifying existential threat. It doesn't need to make sense, because that's not the point of it.
Interesting. I'd call that a (type of) leftist or a (left) liberal myself. But I'm a commie anarchist (type of leftist) so won't be doctrinaire about it.
America is MORE than happy to take human losses, just not *American human losses*. It won't hesitate to kill millions abroad without thinking about it. It seems to regard killing Americans as its personal prerogative, though.
