Yeah but the Israelis “always know” that there’s gonna be “an imminent attack.” I just don’t buy it. It’s more like they’re trying to cover their ass by saying “we didn’t get owned! actually we had ALL THE DETAILS!” (which is actually what they are basically claiming).
I dunno, I know his brain is cooked, but this isn’t really a good example. It seems more like they were done taking a picture and he decided to go check out the parachute guy. And then they called him back and said “hey we gotta take more pictures.” I can understand being annoyed with standing there to take a picture and wanting to get the fuck out.
This motherfucker is gonna be the type that, 20 years from now when the Palestinian cause is accepted by the majority, will say “oh yeah I supported them back then!” Fuck that user, there’s no use arguing with them
This is how you lose support for your cause. If you actually care about palestinians, a ceasefire is the only viable option.
More like gain support, you dumbass.
“I’m convinced that many of the very people who supported us in the struggle in the South are not willing to go all the way now. I came to see this in a very difficult and painful way. In Chicago the last year, where I’ve lived and worked. Some of the people who came quickly to march with us in Selma and Birmingham weren’t active around Chicago. And I came to see that so many people who supported morally and even financially what we were doing in Birmingham and Selma, were really outraged against the extremist behavior of Bull Connor and Jim Clark toward Negroes, rather than believing in genuine equality for Negroes.”
From MLK, this is basically you you fucking dipshit.
They clearly meant in the sense that we have evolved to think spiders are creepy/scary.
Using the “evo science” logic, then we are also afraid of strangers, so that reasoning is often used against the “other” so no, it’s not baiting but based on actual atrocities committed against those that were seen as “scary.” Please don’t minimize that.
This post was made in the politics comm. If it had been made in /c/vegan or /c/chapotraphouse or /c/chat it would be read differently. In the context of the politics comm it reads as an earnest statement intended to be read at face value. The choice of venue shapes how the message is perceived. The post reads as a political statement that killing bugs reveals a person to have fascist character.
I call complete cap on that. If anything this sounds like you trying to tone police based on “venue” or some ephemeral construct like that. “Oh I support your right to protest but do it in the rIGhT wAy!!” kinda shit. I see posts in all kinds of comms, including this one, that link behaviors with tendencies. Cuz you know, “everything is political” right? But with this all of a sudden come the “rules/regulations” BS? With all due respect, eff off with that shit.
but this is not an appropriate way to present that view.
Yup white moderate vibes… smh
Like, people have deep rooted fears that are based on actual dangers (and who knows how much of that is rooted in some kind of genetic understanding).
Careful, that’s some very 
reasoning
Yeah reading comp is beyond some here…
They pretty much tell on themselves here: https://international.dsausa.org/statements/on-russias-invasion-of-ukraine/
They “condemn” Russia. What a joke… No wonder the Global South doesn’t give a shit about the Democratic Sheepherders of America. I didn’t see anything on their site supporting Venezuela, China, DPRK, etc. I only see milquetoast “we stand with the ‘people’ of Venezuela, Cuba, etc.” They’re too chicken to actually support any of the governments in AES countries. They only support “the people” of those countries. What a fucking cop-out scaredy-cat fucking response. That’s like when libs/chuds say “I hate the goverment but support the people!” fucking bullshit. Fuck the DSA. Actually, after seeing those “statements” I’m going to actively tell people I know to stay the fuck away from DSA. They’re waaay worse than I thought.
The tendency in DSA is uncritical support of anti-imperialist state or militant action, especially within the international committee which puts out the vast majority of comms on these topics. The “Robin” in this meme, putting forward any formal critique (a fundamental and essential component of practicing Marxism) is very much the minority position.
I’ll believe it when I see it
So Iran is the only country in the world that legalized the sale of kidneys, and as a result, they don’t have any wait lists for kidneys. Regardless of how you feel about it, it’s an interesting case study (from an anti-imperialist nation to boot) about the effectiveness of the system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_trade_in_Iran
A six sided dice where each side has an actual activity you can do IRL to organize instead of asking randoms on the internet which games you should play? wtf is this reddit tier shit lol
I don’t really care about steroid use in sports. It’s just not fair that certain people get genetic advantages, so if you want to make up for not being tall or having a certain body build, go for it. We allow it in other areas of life, so why not in sports. The whole “it’s unfair whaaaa” thing sounds like some moralistic capitalist bullshit anyways. They always use their advantages, but lecture the rest of us to “play fair”
Yeah the narrative of “these dumb sand n-words are too backwards to develop complex military operations that completely take us by surprise and reveal to the world our hubris in our own military might and faith in our technology. Yeah we’re super racist.”
