they’re too busy sanewashing totally normal ideas like seperating children from parents, tariffs on every import, and mass deportation. Totally rational positions squarely in the overton window.
What will they say about the concentration camps those immigrants are rounded up into? What will they say about the military being deployed to round up residents? I guess we’ll find out.
Taxing billionaires though, how radical
The Democrats have been spoiling elections plenty on their own
The abortion issue is part of fascism. It creates a lower unequal class out of women.
It’s easy for me to say, but now is the time to stubbornly live and be present and visible and together. They want you dead, defy them.
it’s easier to raise tariffs so that efficiently produced foreign electric cars are just as expensive. God bless America
an eye for an eye is more restrained than the Israeli response
out of the principle of charity I chalked it up to the type of person who fixates on the wrong thing but I suspect you’re right
People are explaining the nuance to you and you’re not getting it, maybe it wasn’t an act.
Don’t deprive German consumers of Coca Cola they did nothing wrong
You are adding degrees of indirection that don’t apply, the playing dumb act is one thing but all you can say with your reasoning is they shouldn’t play in Afghanistan or China which people might agree with.
Nobody’s saying they shouldn’t play in Germany because Germany supports Israel.
granted, I should have given more thought to my hyperbolic hypothetical.
point being I dread to think what “lesser evil” we’re looking at when the time comes
let he who is without sin cast the first stone isn’t really about encouraging everyone to cast stones simultaneously and at will
I’m (truly) not sure if this reasoning applies to the people of Israel at large. To be fair, the same can increasingly be said of Americans who continue to support Republicans as they go mask off.

If there was a strong unified labor force we could use general strikes and other collective action to fight back. I don’t know why the American left isn’t trying to organize something like this.
if we’re imagining a better place why not go further? private ownership over collective production is the only way such gross amounts of wealth are possible.
A 100% tax bracket is fine and all, but why don’t we reimagine the economy so that individuals aren’t controlling so much of it? We built the infrastructure, we built the factories, we invented the machines and algorithms.
20 years ago it was Bush and the Cheneys that were so bad we would have been told to vote for anyone running Blue.
Can’t wait to vote for the Democratic candidate in 2048 based on the idea that they’ll only conscript first-born children into mandatory asteroid farming and have Barron Trump’s enforcement over Megahitler.
Anarchists famously love Democrats enough to incorporate them into their graffiti
Read the second sentence in that comment slowly
I’m not commenting on the pager attack when I refer to “accused hamas guy” but I’ll leave it as an exercise to you to figure out why and how the pager strike might have led (and did lead) to civilian casualties.
Yes more precise than “was in a WhatsApp group with the cousin of a suspected Hamas member so the AI told us to bomb him at home with his children” but if that’s the bar…
Exactly! It’s an empty threat in isolation. Of course the real threat is that you’ll get embargoed or otherwise undergo economic violence as capitalist owned governments around the world try to make an example of you.
Generally though, capitalist fleeing just means less to take care of when we reclaim our freedom as workers, especially if you prefer non-violence
fuck I’m extremely far into my career I wish I got this tip sooner
