surprised to learn that he was never aligned with isis; i saw him as osama bin laden 2.0.

everybody else is doing it. lol

the queer influencers on rednote say otherwise

which platform and which influencers?

… just get the next body in

this is the overwhelming majority in my anecdotal experience for the last 23 years professionally so now i don’t try so hard.

it will if you try for yourself instead of making assumptions based on uncritically accepting american propaganda.

most of the influencers i follow do both and i was getting the sense last night that some of them do the former to make the latter more bearable.

they’re on chinese social media and i interact with them on rednote; you can too.

i highly recommend it, it does a lot to dispel american propaganda; the biggest things i learned form them is that they believe things that are true about us are chinese gov’t propaganda.

the sampson option is the most terrifying nuclear escalation i’ve ever learned about; it indiscriminatel attacks both allies and enemies indiscriminately.

that’s why they’re on crazypeople.online. lol

the pinkwashing is the distraction and you’re falling for it.

not a leap at all and my opinion is fact that addresses the reality of the propaganda.

your prager u talking point is the opinion that’s not relevant to this conversation.

did you catch how they improved the revolving door strategy this time around? all of the democratic senators that caved this time weren’t up for elections next year; they ended their careers by falling on their swords to protect the filibuster.

look at how the biggest social media platforms are avoiding the topic; even the people on independent instances like .world ignore it.

pink washing is a thing and the americans are the at it.

they would have to recognize it first and then start counting them

i’m convinced that it’s the filibuster too; it’s way too much of a popular tool for lobbyists to let go.

that’s very true. capitalism has changed throughout the centuries and the version that we have now is significantly different than how it existed in the past.

when i use the words like capitalism or liberalism i’m referring to their present day incarnations because that’s how the world uses them; but there’s definitely a disconnect between westerners and the rest of the world. the western world (americans in particular) use the centuries old definitions of both words that conflates capitalism and liberalism together; but the present day situation is very different and those old definitions are incapable of lending themselves to political analysis of the modern day world because of these old definitions.

in other words: liberalism was the leftist movement that could “liberate” the world from its monarchical hegemony and capitalism was its most dominant political theory. liberalism slowly became the world’s hegemony, but now it’s become neoliberalism and leftism now stands in opposition to neoliberal hegemony.

“thriving on mutual cooperation” speaks to time long before the ancient greeks or romans. recognizable modern humanity (ie toolmaking, painting, sculptures, religion, trade, etc.) has existed for roughly 70 thousand years and the existence of the greeks, romans, or even capitalism is roughly less than 6,000 years old. in other words capitalism has existed for roughly less than 8% of humanity’s history and even then, the version of capitalism practiced back then was very different than the version we practice now.

mutual cooperation for tens of thousands of years speaks to the human prehistory; long before tsarist russia was a thing.

also the type of capitalism that existed during feudalism/serfdom is not the same as the one we have now; it wasn’t the dominant hegemony at the time.

and it’s clear that you went to school at trump university or prager u you since you’re responding with a very maga talking point that tries to conflate ordinary slavery with the american slave trade.

on the off chance that you’re genuinely ignore of it; i would recommend googling or asking chatgpt why the transatlantic slave trade was different that ordinary slavery.
