worst opinion I’ve ever seen

A tale as old as time

That’s right, the man bypassing congress to ship weapons for Israel to bomb refugee tents with is actually a smol bean good guy, that’s SO true

In their moral justification, the argument of the lesser evil has played a prominent role. If you are confronted with two evils, the argument runs, it is your duty to opt for the lesser one, whereas it is irresponsible to refuse to choose altogether. Its weakness has always been that those who choose the lesser evil forget quickly that they chose evil.

-Hannah Arendt, German-American philosopher and political theorist, in fuckin 1964 lmao. some things never change!

thinks mind controlling radio waves are a legitimate threat that needs to be protected against

doesn’t take steps to also protect their young children from that danger

classic

That’s right, the explicitly non-sectarian left unity instance with a supermajority of non-cishet users that aggressively bans transphobia, homophobia, racism, antisemitism, ableism and other bigotry is actually full of reactionary right wing fascists. What a sober analysis.

Marx died March 14th, 1883

Mao was born December 26th, 1893

Was Karl Marx a time traveler?

For anyone curious about this, I highly recommend the following books on the subject:

The Counter-Revolution of 1776: Slave Resistance and the Origins of the United States of America , Gerald Horne

The Dawning of the Apocalypse: The Roots of Slavery, White Supremacy, Settler Colonialism, and Capitalism in the Long Sixteenth Century , Gerald Horne

Settlers: The Mythology of the White Proletariat , J. Sakai (this one comes with free download links)

I would say that the country that has built 45,000km+ of high speed rail network, has a home ownership rate of 90%+, and has virtually eradicated extreme poverty within it’s borders is objectively better than the country with one of the highest per-capita prison populations in the world, and ~600k homeless people it can’t take care of.

yeah, but nobody asks what you were wearing when you’re attacked by a bear :)

The IDF? No. China? Absolutely!

Hmm, getting some… Interesting readings over here…

It’s the only system that works (if you ignore the planned economy that has built 45,000km of high speed rail and has a home ownership rate of 90%+, and has more green energy production than the rest of the world combined)!! That’s basic economics!!

also has basically zero labor laws and an absolutely enormous wealth gap between the ruling class and the working class.

China’s congress literally just passed a law a few days ago requiring all companies over 100 employees to have employee councils as a mandatory organ of the company structure

Article 17(2) of the Revised Company Law now stipulates that the assembly of employee representatives shall be the basic form of the democratic corporate governance system and that this shall apply to all companies. That means, regardless of whether a company is private or state-owned, whether it is a limited liability or a stock corporation. This is a notable development, as democratic corporate governance as a requirement for all companies is set out in national law for the first time.

An Employee Assembly shall be convened at least once a year, and more than two-thirds of the employee representatives must be present at the plenary session of an Employee Assembly. Elections and votes on relevant matters at an Employee Assembly require a majority of all employee representatives.

Posting this while Boeing is killing whistleblowers for talking about how many corners they’re cutting is absolutely wild lmao
