Not even Qatar will sink to the low low level of Germany. Germans can learn so much about moral integrity and ethics from basically every other culture. How come they still think it’s the other way around?

Marxists stand exactly for the same thing as anarchists: communism (a classless stateless society). The difference is only in tactics.

It’s not saying that fascists do social programs. It’s saying, that imperial super profits are not enough anymore, so the mask comes off. Fascism arises, when the profit rate is so low, that domestic exploitation has to be ramped up above what’s possible within liberal democracy.

Yeah, you’d have to be a saint to actually be against genocide. Perfectly natural to just lie for the fascists. /s

Even a very selfish, evil person would not normally support genocide. These people are on another level, an incredibly low one.

Yes, I think they are trying to say people would vote pro-russian (which they did, hence the maidan coup), but Putin bad because no democracy, so therefore Ukraine had to get rid of democracy, to save democracy. Perfectly good lib logic.

Exactly, perfect take! Bodyshaming and ableism are also one more line along which the ruling class devides people to keep them from doing anything about the systemic issues you mentioned. Solidarity wins.

Dosn’t matter, they have to do what the people who own the newspaper tell them to do. And those are rich.

They think they know better than the CIA. The head of the CIA could publicly murder a room full of innocent people, then turn to the cameras of countless news outlets and say:“Yes, I killed all those innocent people to protect a Nazi war criminal from justice.” And libs would still say it’s fake news.

Because cigarettes are addictive? People start in a weak moment and fail to stop. It’s not a rational decision.

So would you say, that actively hostile imperialist western nations and their propaganda apparatus know more about democracy in Venezuela than Venezuelans?

For example if you asked Americans (particularly those in the south or rural areas) if they thought their country was more “free” than the rest of the world, you would probably get higher numbers than you would from most other regions of the world

Maybe this data will surprise you then:

Emma Goldman

Thank you, this is good to know!

It’s funny, because it’s true, but now I need a wholesome version of this with left unity pls,

The ML should playfully insult the anarchist back, then they just look at each other, then they make out and then they join hands in left unity.

They never say: “If you don’t like how the resistance operates, why don’t you join it and try to change it from the inside?”

Thanks for the write up, I’m just unsure about this last part:

USSR could’ve developed the way China did if different decisions were made

Which decisions could have achieved that? Nixon and Kissinger deciding to go to Moscow to make a deal and the USSR fueling the Walmart economy for the next decades instead of China? But than China wouldn’t be the same today.

Yes, but does it feel gendered? Habibi (m) vs habibti (f)? For non-binary people, maybe habibna? Or habibkum? Or just habib-?
