[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.
Please be aware this thread is strictly moderated[/quote]
and it was the Euros who created and ran those camps. jesus man.
We gotta talk about Bear Jew #2. My god she's 20 years old. Has the weight of the whole world on her, protests all around. And she delivers THAT performance. What a boss.
She's headed to the finals
It's unavailable in USA onv
The typical crybabies will call this antisemitism.
They aren't wrong by the new definition. Antisemitism is when you punish Jews for harassing young women.
There is no paradox using capitalism, because capitalism improved the lives of so many people so much any decent person would just brag of being pro capitalism, and gain the higher moral ground over anyone disagreeing automatically.
While communisms never worked positively, no instance of it doing more for the people than it's absence, it's the rare case of Pareto inefficient solution: always strictly worse than alternatives.
The best Marxist is by far a worse human being than the worst capitalist
You say Stalin, I say Pinochet
amazingly people do not like genocidal maniacs. I know this is quite hard for you guys to understand bc of the great pleasure you get from murdering Palestinians.
this is undoubtedly a good thing. I am sure if she didnt support the murder of Palestinian babies then she would be free to walk wherever. but as it is, these people need to be made pariahs.

If you're saying capitalism exists (I would say it doesn't), then you're only talking about mixed economies. Those with socialist healthcare, social security of some sort, fire departments, libraries, free schooling, and stuff like that.
oh weird it works here
hmm, maybe try on X? The Eden Golan performance from today. She won. Wonder why they don't let Muricans see.
When I'm in Colombia I often get the "video not unavailable in your country" message randomly for random videos. I love a good conspiracy but the reasons why stuff is unavailable in places is going to be pretty prosaic. Just get a VPN. i recommend Proton.
It's funny watching people boo and protest a 20 year old girl who just wants to sing.
But man, she's singing her heart out. Legit Israeli resilience.
Nazis had a lot of resilience too. and some great singers. they were still genocidal maniacs. the history books will place you right alongside them.
Caitlin rarely misses. and she doesnt miss here.

Most if not all of what you listed didn't exist when we grew economically at the highest pace ever in human history (late 19th century).
Yes there is much more socialism in the mix now, and economic growth is a lot weakened because of it , but you can't cancel the past without social security and public healthcare and so on which eas exactly the moment in time we started moving from a plateau we were in for millennia to become richer without precedent.
And negating that was the most important and positively moral thing to ever happen to humanity after agriculture puts you in the dustbin of history, in the "your opinion about anything relayed to human beings is utter garbage" bin.
Which coincidentally, to stay on topic, is exactly where all the pro Palestinian people are. Because I am not sure you noticed, but the divide in the west has all the various colors of red of the left pro Palestine, and the decent people pro Israel.
When victor and his lot are pro something, given he is Marxist, you can bet your life they are completely wrong morally and save the time to determine why.
The radical left everywhere being pro Palestine IS THE ACTUAL PROOF it is a moral imperative to be pro Israel, above everything else. The rest is a post hoc rationalization, pro Israel with no ifs and no buts was the imperative the instant the worst people in society (radical leftists) became vocal pro Palestine.
Sometimes it is that simple really

Imma let you finish but capitalists reject foreign aid. Especially to Israel.
