I'm going to start saying "I'm in favor of repealing all immigration laws because I'm a centrist. There will be no more illegal immigrants, and no more need for ICE." I am FORCING the overton window left.

I've noticed recently that Wikipedia has been a lot less pro-Israel recently. Like, they directly call it an Apartheid state and what Israel is doing a genocide without any qualifiers, and if you look at the Talk pages on those articles, any time someone tries to bring it up, they're basically just like "No. We've already settled on this discussion."

Deng Xiaoping should really go down as one of the greatest political strategists in history.

"How do you do, fellow capitalists? Great day to exploit labor, amirite? You know, Chinese labor is quite cheap and plentiful, it would certainly be quite beneficial to us capitalists to exploit Chinese labor, right?"

A few decades later, most of the manufacturing is in China, China is now an economic powerhouse, and the dumbest world leader alive now wants to trade war China despite China obviously holding the cards in this scenario.

I'm a centrist. I think both the anarchists and the Marxist-Leninists have good points.

It's been a year since I was let go from my last full time, permanent job. I've never been able to find work since then. I know that if they were to just put me on the desk, I'd do the job well and excel at it. But nobody will do that. Because I can't network. I'm sorry, but I can't fake sincerity. I can't pretend I'm not just talking to someone because I want a job. But this arbitrary thing that has nothing to do with the job is apparently the end-all-be-all of finding work.

This could basically be a checklist to determine "is this person not autistic"?

When are we going to reckon with the fact that job interviews are designed to keep the neurodiverse out?

My face would look literally like a raging crying soyjak if Trump did this.

This is such a modern Sonic Fandom thing, but it's years before the Sonic fandom got weird in a self aware way.

Should I suggest a new strategy to r/wallstreetbets?

Every Democratic campaign I've been old enough to understand could always be summed up with one sentence: "Vote for us or else the Republican will do evil things". A completely negative message, nothing about why I SHOULD vote for them, just about why I should vote against the Republican.

There's one exception. Obama 2008. This campaign was all about all the good things he was going to do, all the positive change that was going to happen. The word "Change" was so associated with his campaign, it was a meme for years. And Obama won by an absolute landslide.

Now, of course, Obama's actual presidency, he didn't do ANY of that, and instead, was just another war criminal, like every other president. But I do believe a big reason why libs deify him so much is his 2008 campaign, and I think that carried him to victory in 2012 as well. (Even though in 2012, they DID do a bit of that "vote for the Democrat or the Republican will do bad things, and if I was able to see that after they did that with Trump, but applied to fucking Mitt Romney, I would've laughed my ass off).

Now, after Obama was so successful with "change", and the good stuff? We had the complete opposite. Nothing will fundamentally change.

Democrats really hate learning, not just from their mistakes, but from the stuff they did correctly.

You know what would be the funniest thing the Onion could do with Infowars? Just straight-up, high quality reporting. Like, Pentagon Papers type shit.

Hitler wasn't elected, he was appointed chancellor by the lesser evil candidate.

Kamala has vowed to have a Republican in her cabinet.

These two statements have absolutely no relation whatsoever.

At first I thought it was good news that the Nazis think JD Vance is a race traitor, so they're likely to not vote for Trump and stay home, but then I remembered, not voting is the same as voting for Trump, so they're still voting for Trump.

Irish Unification isn't enough. I want Irish Expansion. I need East Ireland. Scotland can be an autonomous zone in East Ireland.

I wonder how many Israelis are going to move out, back to the US or Europe or wherever because of this, since a lot of them are capable of doing so. Can't be good for the settler-colonial project.

Libs: LOL, China tells the people nothing happened at Tiananmen Square.

"Well, what did happen at Tiananmen Square?"

Libs: Well, they killed people, I think? And there was something about tanks? A protest about... something?

Imagine seeing a cute little figurine, commenting on it, then suddenly, the guy goes into a rant about how he wants all Russians dead.

[-] [email protected] 95 points 2 years ago

They called what China was doing a genocide. They called Russia doing military actions a genocide. They threw the term genocide around willy-nilly. Now that there's an actual genocide going on, it's not genocide, it's Israel's right to defend itself.
