Funny how they frame it as Biden doesn't align 100% with your desires instead of there's literally zero places your interests align with his.

Calling himself a settler with zero shame, absolute scum

Very nuanced, not-at-all-racist liberals pretending PoC only care about Palestine because of "tribalism" and not because it's genocide.

Really nailing the condescending aristocrat way of thought. Proles have no minds of their own, so if Marx "lost" a debate they would all abandon marxist communism in favour of anarchists because that's what the people who think decided.

30 upvotes: Doves win political power, surrender, then say “see, interventionism can never work!”

Genuinely flat-earth levels of delusion to think this is how the US operates. A take so ignorant it stops being annoying and starts being funny.

"alleged war crimes"

God, I hate the guardian. The idf is literally videotaping and bragging about the war crimes they're doing, adding "alleged" is just insulting at this point.

hexbear, for instance, has communities about socialism and marxist philosophies, which I find to be intellectually stimulating and not at all radical

Do Americans think skiing in general is the same as alpine? Skiing isn't any more bougie than going for a hike.

Only slightly more men are moving to the right in most places, it's more due to women moving much more in the opposite direction. Which is very understandable due to open hostility towards women being pretty much mainstream on the right now.

I didn't watch the interview, but from what I understand the guy isn't even a Houthi fighter or anything, but a regular Yemeni teen who had his picture taken on a captured ship once.

Deranged reaction.

So many questions about this tweet. What is white culture? Why would you think about these random historical persons every day? How do you "invent" an empire? Why is that something you think fondly of someone for?

THAT'S THE POST.

Every human instinctly knows that a very small minority living in unlimited luxury while half the world lives in squalor is an unforgivable evil that can't be forgiven.

Theory is cool and good, and you should study it as much as you're able to, but at the end of the day, you don't need to read any theory at all to understand why this is wrong. You just need the basic human empathy we're all born with.

A significant amount of people enjoy being one the priviliged few and have no sympathy for those screwed over. They still KNOW it's morally wrong, they just enjoy it. Most people don't think like that though, and have just been conditiond since childhood into believing contrived justifications of why it has to be this way or why change is dangerous if not outright impossible. In my experience, they all know the current capitalist system is unacceptable if you press them enough, even if they'd never use those words or think about it in those terms. It's just that none of us know what to do about it.

The entire point of both modern political and economic theory is to justify something we all intuitively understand isn't okay, which is probably part of why modern society is so fucked.
