These globalists and these Marxists that have been in business with these global Marxists for decades and decades and decades […]

Such eloquence.

Steve Bannon need his throat chakra realigned. No more talking from him will be just fine. If I can smell him from wherever I am, I will make some soup later on. Again, I say If I can smell him from wherever I am, I am making some soup. It is getting near sweater & soup season.

he always looks unkempt, like he is having a hangover everyday.

[–] 6stringringer@lemmy.zip 2 points 25 minutes ago

I think if a skidmark were person, it would be him.

I remember growing up that everyone knew what Marxism is and had a thoroughly developed class consciousness. Everyone was capable of developing a critique of capital. He might be onto something. It explains why America has such strong labor, free universal healthcare, and no bourgeoisie.

What the fuck does that even mean?

God these fucking weird freaks are the fucking worst.

Tbf, schools are sort of indoctrination camps.

That said, getting rid of school so that kids would end up learning 0%, instead of the currently 50% useful stuff* isn't exactly gonna solve problems.

(*since the other 50% is indoctrination)

The far right doesn't really want to get rid of school, they just want to control more of it so that instead of the 50% center-right indoctrination, it'd become 100% far right nationalist indoctrination with their agenda instead.

I suspect that this time, they want to get rid of the children too.

These "people" want to snuff out humanity itself. They have AI now and each other.

Is "terrorist" their new code word for "I don't like this"

[–] bassomitron@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That's the way it's been used in the US since 9/11/2001. Not sure about other places.

[–] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Brits have been using it that way for centuries. Go dig through papers from the 1800s, you'll find them describing anyone resisting their colonialism as "terrorists". Legally, the US is working from the exact same definition that British common law uses.

[–] Roidecoeur@lemmy.world 2 points 48 minutes ago

That makes sense, since, as far as i can tell, the U.S. seems to be a modern hybrid of the British empire which spawned it and the German war machine it assimilated into itself about 80 years ago.

go back to drinking, you homeless looking drunk.

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago

Please don't insult the unhoused by comparing them to this shithead.

[–] JeremyHuntQW12@lemmy.world 12 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe this old fucking pisshead should stay away from children. Just sayin

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 2 points 1 hour ago

And adults too, for that matter.

[–] bagsy@lemmy.world 17 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

So everyone is a terrorist except MAGA?

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 2 points 1 hour ago

"When you think everybody in the room is an asshole, you're the asshole."

[–] 4am@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 hours ago

It’s still always projection

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

MAGA isn't strictly excluded.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Oh ok, education is terrorism.

Goooottttt it.

Welp, this bodes poorly.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 4 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

Words too many, too big, you prison go

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

That's not a problem. Without trained and qualified engineers, architects and construction workers, soon the 'prisons' will just be a shoddily fenced easily escapable dirt arena.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

Good luck to them when they can't figure out how to use a gun

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 4 hours ago

This is so surprising

[–] f1error@lemmy.world 5 points 5 hours ago

When will someone end this mouth-breathing waste? In one-on-one combat, I will happily end him if the coward agrees. I'll even do it on live TV/Streaming. I'm 54, overweight (230lb) and WAY out of shape, very flabby ( I still make sweet-potato hitler look FAT), and untrained. And I will still beat the shit-eater Bannon. He's all talk and all useless.

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.today 13 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

He is a fantastic representative of MAGAts.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 hours ago

he is the face, personification of magats.

[–] kelpie_returns@lemmy.world 13 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

I don't agree tbh. He is too precising in the pursuit of his goals to properly represent them. The US is in the situation it is in so small part because of the sideways dedication and genuine know-how of this person.

He is, clearly, not wise (as is true of anybody willing to sell their fellows for power), but what he lacks in wisdom, he more than makes up for in cruel cunning. He is a bad representative of maga because maga is more like his prey or his host than it is something he's an actual part of. If maga is a fire, he is not a spark or a flicker, but a barrel of gasoline waiting to do what gasoline does
