kot [they/them]

He was already like this in the 80s. Just look up his speech about Israel from back then. These people don’t have the capacity for remorse.

I wasnt aware that Adblock was causing Google to go bankrupt. But even if that was the case, I still wouldnt watch ads lmao.

Gommulism ended life on earth

Reminder that “poor Gary” was selling pirated roms.

Oh, the horror! I guess that justifies ruining his life forever.

This happens every time a neoliberal “experiment” is attempted, it was the same with Pinochet as well. However, even if poverty skyrockets, the rich get richer, so they keep doing it.

Lula already recalled his Brazilian ambassador from Israel

All the money being lost for nothing

Not true, war profiteers made a lot of money

Has long as the Palestinian people exist, and as long as their land remains occupied by settlers, their struggle will not be over.

I was expecting this whole operation to result in the destruction or near-destruction of Israel

How? That is simply not realistic considering the scope of this conflict. Israel has infinitely more resources and more manpower, this has always been a case of asymmetrical warfare.

There isn’t enough being done by other nations to stop Israel.

This is being done precisely because NATO and the US supports Israel and sends them weapons and funding. They value their own interests in the region more highly than the lives of Palestinians. In fact, Israel wouldn’t even exist without foreign support.
This conflict will only be resolved when supporting Israel becomes more trouble than it is worth, either because of the political turmoil at home is not worth the benefits, because the money spent on it outweights the profits, or simply because the crumbling empire no longer has the means to support it’s vassals.
It’s imperative to organize at home and to agitate against Israel if you’re an USian, it might not seem like much but the more you pressure your government to stop supporting genocide abroad the closer we are to resolving this conflict.

South Korea was a brutal right wing dictatorship until somewhat recently, so maybe their views are a bit different. They also have some pretty awful labor laws to this day, even by capitalist standards. I don’t know what they actually think about the DPRK though, but their experience with capitalism is not at all like the US or Ukraine.

Bourgeois democracies are absolutely incompetent at dealing with fascists. Lula’s government will continue to slide rightwards as he gives more concessions to neoliberals as well.

“Tankie” is used by liberals and left anti-communists to defame & differentiate themselves from principled communists, and really from anyone who defends AES states. That use is cringe and outs the person saying it as an absolute tool who shouldn’t be taken seriously.

I have no problem calling myself a tankie though. Sending tanks to kill fascists is good. Every tankie should be awarded their own tank.

Which is often better than streaming anyway

When Israel does a genocide: Self defense

When Palestinians fight back: Terrorism

Funny how that works

its continued use of United Nations forums for its own purposes.

Because the US never does that, ever.

After the cold war, the US was the one uncontested world power and they could basically do whatever they wanted with impunity. This is not the reality anymore. China is NOT stumbling, it’s just USian cope that they’ve been spouting for years (“their growth is fake! Building railroads is a bad economic choice! They’re gonna collapse this year trust me bro”), they’re the second biggest world economy and a genuine competing world power. The Ukrainian war is also proving that challenging the US is possible; it was a spit in the face of NATO and the US regardless if you think what Putin did was justified or not, and Russia basically just got away with it. The US is still a powerful empire, but you have to put things in context to what they were like just a few years ago.

I’ll ignore the response for the onlookers and bite anyway No, I’m not going to “magically” solve anything. Overpopulation is a malthusian reactionary myth and often two steps away from claiming that the poors have too many babies. The reason why the environment is being destroyed is because of capitalism. It’s simply not profitable for the people in charge to switch for cleaner types of energy or to look for any solutions whatsoever. The fact that you think the solution to this is not communism, but that everyone should die, is telling. Another comrade has put it better than I can:

The United States, for example, is 4% of the World’s population but still uses 25% of the world’s resources annually. The United States outsources their pollution and their production to the third world, where the labor is cheapest due to imperialism, and then says “the third world is responsible for the climate change because of their carbon emissions! We need to cut down on the number of people!”

Do they mean liberals in the USian sense or the regular one? Because in almost every other country “liberals” are right-wing free market types, rather than lukewarm non-communist progressives.
