So long as they don't democratically elect a socialist. Otherwise they're getting a Western-backed far-right dictator forced on them instead to "prove socialism doesn't work."

I agree that it's important to help the poor to make them less susceptible to financial coercion. After all, that is what capitalism does to quantitive measurements of debt, turns it from debt forgiveness to debt peonage. The second part isn't necessarily true, there are plenty of poor people that don't do what rich people tell them to, and plenty of rich people who happily do what rich people tell them to do.

Imagine fighting and risking your life in a foreign country on behalf of a pedophile.

Gaza is the testing grounds for what life is about to be like in the West. Starvation will be used as a weapon eventually, and who's gonna stop them?

Wow, $11 trillion is a lot. Really puts the $36 trillion sitting liquid in offshore tax havens into perspective (yet seems to be missing from every conversation about money.)

The 'based' part wasn't that they showed up to protest. It was that they potentially sacrificed their job, endangered their own comfort and security, to stand up for a moral code and take a side. Something that escapes centrists/fascists.

He stood up to American traitors better than any American ever did.

Ah yes, because a video of a Nazi salute isn't antisemetic but a jewish college student protesting apartheid and wearing a keffiyeh is! What a time to be alive!

Seriously where is the next Luigi? I know you're out there, forget the school and it's bullies or the mall full of mindless drones, or any of you who are seriously considering taking your own life, if you're willing to do that then you're willing to do anything right? Don't be a villain, be a hero.
