She complains that the dissolution of Israel is unrealistic, which sure, it kinda is, but what is a more realistic solution at this point, exactly?

What is the pathway that takes us from the present situation to the dissolution of Israel as a Jewish state?

You could ask the exact same thing about a compromise position like a two-state solution and any answers you come up with are just as inadequate. I know libs love to compromise with fascists because it's a more "realistic" option, but in this case it just isn't. If anything, some disaster hitting Israel causing it to collapse seems way less impossible than a future where a free Palestine somehow exists alongside Israel.

Why is the world like this?

Calling himself a settler with zero shame, absolute scum

Very nuanced, not-at-all-racist liberals pretending PoC only care about Palestine because of "tribalism" and not because it's genocide.

Really nailing the condescending aristocrat way of thought. Proles have no minds of their own, so if Marx "lost" a debate they would all abandon marxist communism in favour of anarchists because that's what the people who think decided.

30 upvotes: Doves win political power, surrender, then say “see, interventionism can never work!”

Genuinely flat-earth levels of delusion to think this is how the US operates. A take so ignorant it stops being annoying and starts being funny.

"alleged war crimes"

God, I hate the guardian. The idf is literally videotaping and bragging about the war crimes they're doing, adding "alleged" is just insulting at this point.

hexbear, for instance, has communities about socialism and marxist philosophies, which I find to be intellectually stimulating and not at all radical

The cool thing about inflation "plummeting" is that it doesn't undo the damage high inflation already did. Food is still massively more expensive than it was a year ago, weirdly enough that bothers people.

The nofap "movement" tell depressed, alienated guys that cutting out porn and masturbation is the key to turning their life around. This is how you can gain back your confidence and self-respect, become the person you want to be and stop being so alienated to everything around you.

Since the real world doesn't actually work like that, I'm not surprised it can lead to insane amounts of anger and frustration in some followers.

There's some other funny conspirational parts about woke millenial staffers dictating the policy of major companies, but it's mostly boring cope and bootlicking.

If the video was from the US half the comments would be actively arguing that the tanks should have ran him over.

Zero respect for people who "sympathize" with Palestinians, but who instantly condemns fighting back against their occupation.

Are Palestinians meant to just sit there and die slowly while we feel sorry for them?

THAT'S THE POST.

Every human instinctly knows that a very small minority living in unlimited luxury while half the world lives in squalor is an unforgivable evil that can't be forgiven.

Theory is cool and good, and you should study it as much as you're able to, but at the end of the day, you don't need to read any theory at all to understand why this is wrong. You just need the basic human empathy we're all born with.

A significant amount of people enjoy being one the priviliged few and have no sympathy for those screwed over. They still KNOW it's morally wrong, they just enjoy it. Most people don't think like that though, and have just been conditiond since childhood into believing contrived justifications of why it has to be this way or why change is dangerous if not outright impossible. In my experience, they all know the current capitalist system is unacceptable if you press them enough, even if they'd never use those words or think about it in those terms. It's just that none of us know what to do about it.

The entire point of both modern political and economic theory is to justify something we all intuitively understand isn't okay, which is probably part of why modern society is so fucked.
