crazy that this technology could be used to free humanity from wage slavery, but naturally, instead we've been put in a zero sum contest with the tech to drive down the cost of labor.
can you imagine how boring that conversation was
hopefully some IOF sniper sees her vest and mistakes her for a journalist
i literally thought this was an onion piece
Realistically, the worst she'll do is write a shitty book about an IP thief named ~~"Israel Zionstein".~~ Jewy McGobbaum
Worse was to come at DSA’s state and local levels. Connecticut DSA tweeted on October 8, “Yesterday, the Palestinian resistance launched an unprecedented anti-colonial struggle,” without providing any of the messy details as to what that “struggle” involved.
"the struggle" is when I need an extra shot in my cappuccino on monday cuz I have to to go to bat so hard for bloodsoaked zionist fascists. what you guys did - the whole "armed liberation against genocide" thing - that's just straight up uncivil
i dont know what the fuck i just saw when i went to whatever eyesore of a sub that "brigade incoming" link took me to, but the top comment is a snapshot of your comment and them attempting to dunk on it as though communism is literally about killing people and just taking their stuff
i forgot that this is literally as deep as chud analysis goes, also i'm sure they have no fucking idea who the were but if they're talking about the romanovs, fucking lol and also
mud pies are not socially necessary in any context
and what's astounding is that all of the aforementioned gains were made in the context of a world completely dominated by warring capitalist nation-states, which were doing everything in their power to strangulate communist movements through shear monopoly on violence.
communism has never worked. Never. Not one time. Never. And, and, every time it doesn’t work (which again is every time)
list every historical instance of communism
let the Russians steamroll Ukraine and take everything?
I've noticed that every pro-NATO voice screaming "war good" has to pretend like the binary outcome of this war is a) Ukraine becomes Russia and every living inhabitant is genocided (see above comment from bibibi for case in point), or b) Ukraine heroically drives back Russia with magic in a completely asymmetrical and unwinnable war
Come on.
And then finishes their comment with something like this
There's no material analysis to support any of this
The only way to get to that viewpoint is to believe Putin is an irrational, genocidal maniac hellbent on killing checks notes neighbors who are ethnically russian, who also desperately wants to push even more of Russia's border right up against a hostile NATO. It's no surprise that the people saying this shit are pro NATO and don't understand the material reality underlying geopolitical conflicts like this one
Not gonna touch the "fledgeling democracy" thing, other comrades can dunk on that
I mean, I'm kinda surprised Jon doesn't even point out the obvious provocation of the prospect of Ukraine joining a hostile anti-Russian military alliance that would put ~~hypersonic~~ nuclear missiles 5 minutes from Moscow. Like, literally right on the Russian border.
Uh -- let's entertain a hypothetical in which one of the US's neighboring countries decided to join a hostile military alliance that put nukes 5 minutes off the US coast. Oh right, that happened!
We responded by invading, trying to assassinate their democratically elected president, and then we blockeded, sanctioned and starved them for generations.
Why not point out that Putin is literally doing what any US president would do, except, like... not nearly as barbaric?
