You should be. Showing that you can be as bad or worse than oligarchs. Doesn’t defeat the oligarchs. It just creates new oligarchs. Ones who will just as happily give you the exact same treatment for the crime of disagreeing with them.
So is construction and community building. Better even.
Ain’t it the truth. This is abominable treatment regardless of who’s doing it. You can tell a lot about a society by how it treats those “outside”. And those who hypocritically defend their abuse. Abuse isn’t justice, and will not be a deterrent. But eventually another rallying cry.
Prison should only be for those beyond rehabilitation. Even then it should not be such conditions. Any person or society that tolerates it is not benevolent or “good”.
No. But regulations and laws are meaningless with a complicit Congress.
The GOP attacked education and created echo chambers for the last half century for a reason. Sure they were self aware enough to know the GOP was screwing them. But they had been told their entire life that the DNC was far worse. Not saying the DNC is good. just the effectiveness of propaganda and echo chambers.
No, both are unacceptable. You are unacceptable.
An attempt at Ml logic. Literal fallacies such as attacking the messenger to justify worse hypocrisy. The west does bad things, therefore China gets to do similar or worse bad things.
Keep in mind for the last several years. This person pretended to be concerned with what was happening to Palestinians. Screeching at anyone that didn’t agree 100% with them. with transactional allies like them, who needs more enemies.
Hmmm interesting. I don’t think I’d ever heard that before. I will have to look into it
γαμημένος κλόουν?
Or in case you meant latin. Because I’m not sure what the point/significance of trying to translate it to Greek would be.

You’re not wrong that Sanders had some of the most toxic supporters. And still seemingly does. But there’s a lot of reasons for that. Part of it was that many of them just like the concept of him and were not supporters of him for any particular political stances. He was the candidate that the GOP focused on promoting the most, to divide and conquer left-leaning voters turning them against each other. Something Sanders himself didn’t want. But which worked in spades.
Sanders the person I think is genuine and a great candidate. I would easily vote for him AOC or Warren on any given day.
I was still referring to the last decade so yes. 2015 till now. That particular patch of time. People were telling her as the most principled and moral candidate rivaling even Bernie Sanders.
All the people that tried to convince me over the last decade that she was somehow an intelligent principled candidate. Where are they now LOL. She was worse than even I implied at the time.
Yep. It’s more a tech archeology video.
It’s not a threat to someone’s health or life. Simply pointing out that he’s a fool to think that similar groups wouldn’t turn on him if they wanted to. All gung ho to try and join them. I think the comment is safe.
Are, are the liberals in the room there with you? Roll your forehead across the keyboard if so. Seriously though. It’s laughable looking at the levels of cognitive dissonance shared between people making arguments like yours and the maga crowd.
Trust me the US will start taking from wealthy Americans as well soon enough. Once authoritarian groups burn enough Bridges and goodwill. They always have to scapegoat another group.
It’s pretty hilarious how so many people think that the boot isn’t the problem. The flavor of it is all that matters.
The problem is they don’t value objectivity. Just objects and subjectivity.
Because nationalist groups when they aren’t pitted against each other have a lot in common. It’s why Trump likes Bibi, Xi and Putin.
Wealthy German Zionists, negotiated Haavara with Hitler. Breaking solidarity and boycotts against his regime to emigrate to Palestine. Ostensibly to save German Jews. Though ultimately only those that were Zionist and wealthy got to take much advantage of it.
Post war Zionists manipulated international sympathies to make official claims to Palestine and seize control from the people who had actually lived there generations, displacing them. Much as Hitler had done to them. Initially there were many other places discussed to relocate many Jews after the war. It wasn’t always just Palestine. But the nationalists demanded Palestine.
Nationalist are scum and always have been.
If that’s what you need to tell yourself. That isn’t what was said. If you already have them imprisoned and at your will. Treating them with the basic humanity you might have felt denied is the ultimate power move and demonstration that you are better/benevolent. Rather than a new oligarch same as the old oligarch. It’s got nothing to do with politeness. But wielding power with humanity and justice. Something impossible for a state to do really.
But good luck cheering on those for whom brutalization and oppression is a primary tool in their arsenal. So long as they’re hurting the right people. Just like the magats here. Praying they don’t become the right people despite always being the right people.
