Already seeing libs call this a false flag attack. So that stage has been set already if proof comes out that Ukraine was responsible

Eventually Christopher Nolan will be correctly and ignominiously remembered as a great propagandist instead of an artist

It's honestly pure fucking racism. China is clearly just acting in an underhanded way and manipulating people by LOOKING like they are doing the right thing by bringing people out of poverty but really they are just waiting for their moment to assume imperial power. Those sneaky orientals-- I mean revisionists!

China is obviously a complicated entity. There are a lot of important questions to be asked about how they operate and how that fits into ideas of socialism and communism. But 1. this is their socialist project and not ours and 2. you definitely don't have the right to project centuries old racist tropes on them.

Everybody except the absolute richest 10% experience at minimum financial stress because neoliberalism has made everything require debt, which is inherently destabilizing and arguably traumatizing. Below that, you have people putting off medical care, severe mental health epidemics (everyone I know is on adderall, anti-depressants, or both), etc. all the way down to the worst squalor you will see anywhere in the world. It's pretty fucking insane and illustrates how the Emperor is truly wearing no clothes.

If you aren't from the US, I can guarantee poverty here is much much worse than you think

Becoming a Marxist shows you that Gandhi was a villain that is propped up by the west in the name of non-violence

They are telling on themselves so hard here, confirming that they were sending poorly trained soldiers to Bakhmut just to fucking die. Fucking monsters

It is very disturbing how Reddit-like that response is

It was primarily an Islamophobic movement in the post-Gulf War and 9/11 era.

That's what it seems like to me. It was very much the same "white dude pseudo-intellectuals pretend they know everything about the world but only push reactionary ideology" as the Peterson, Rogan, etc. bullshit.

This is genuinely terrifying

I mean yeah, mass murder has been part of the cultural psyche since the beginning. Once genocide and lynching fell out of fashion, the violence simply turned inward. You can see the parallels with relationship between liberalism and fascism.

The last sentence is terrifying but only confirms what we've feared all along.

Tying retirement to the stock market is insidious class warfare

They aren't gonna let these cars be sold in the US at all are they? Would love to have a cheap EV

Sometime this week on CNN: "German academics criticized for genocide denial concerning Uyghur treatment in Xinjiang"

How did you get a pic of my rear view mirror (I'm already going 10 mph over the speed limit)

Thanks for the detailed and thought-out response, I really appreciate it. My frustrations come purely from the mainstream application of intersectionality which decontextualizes everything for the sake of primacy of racial and social hierarchy, completely ignoring the basic question of why these hierarchies even exist in the first place (presumably because of typical western orthodoxy of "human nature"). I have definitely been rethinking it and seeing its value even in Marxist applications.

My god the way they draw Putin is so fucking racist

I am noticing a lot of similarities with the postbellum American South. They really want to be the Mississippis and Alabamas of the world?
