The methods of mass killing on disease detection are also quite cruel

The way these people treat humans... I doubt they care how they treat animals. I've seen enough of how the factory farming industry "cares" for animals to not want to see how they do mass cullings.

At least give it a cool name like The (John) Galt Party or something so it has a better change of splitting the right. I guess the nazi party was already taken?

Just wait 200 years and the West will also admit to all the contemporary genocides. And will make some very touching museum to them, while committing new ones and silencing anyone opposed to it.

This kind of reasoning immediately makes me think of MLK's famous quote:

the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action

If it were up to me, eating the rich would be considered vegan

TIL that the pinnacle of social democracy has a crown prince

Hey, stop that!

There was an Italian socialist politician called Giacomo Matteotti who got disappeared after he spoke up against the fascist regime. It marks the turning point for the Italian dictatorship. If this century is truly a Disney bad reboot of the previous, we could be seeing some similarities with Mamdani.

I doubt entrenched powers would let the mayor of the biggest US city actually do anything radical like what he campaigned for. Capitalists will collaborate with politicians to either have him removed or make him woefully inefficient. It will definitely be an uphill battle.

How long util he gets couped by the CIA?

Exactly. There is a rich tradition of Christian socialism and Christian communism. Even the communist group that Marx and Engels joined up with practiced christian communism and utopian socialism before moving away to a more secular and materialist version. The Communist Manifesto marks this turning point well.

Of course, M&E argue that Christianity is a tool used to blunt the edge of revolutionary socialism and keep it back in line where it can't do any harm. Like the other forms of socialism (including that dreaded one) that are explicitly designed to recuperate the more radical ideas to a place where they can be more comfortably controlled by the ruling class.

Damn. I hope the train is ok

Oh this aged like sour goat milk.

Palantir should be dismantled for supporting and enabling fascism

Unfortunately that has never happened. In fact, a lot of big name companies made a fortune exactly due to their collaboration:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_the_Holocaust

Always relevant:

It's almost as if immigrants are a big source of exploitable labor that keeps the wheels of capitalism turning. Who would've thought?

Such a remarkable achievement! We should put capitalists on the Starship ASAP so they can enjoy the fruits of "their" labor!

Imagine being such a hated coward that you're literally surrounded by the military, and still have to hide behind bullet proof glass

Yeah, some of these online roleplaying leftists really need to question their logic if they're doing the same job as right wing bots: undermining unity with useless dissent. Shit taken straight from the CIA sabotage manual:

“Instead, Prime Minister Netanyahu pursued a path of mass revenge, killing over 40,000 Palestinians, blocking humanitarian aid, pushing Gaza to the brink of famine while only further endangering the lives of hostages, and consistently undermining ceasefire negotiations.

“One year after the attack, the region is barreling toward even wider conflict. The Biden Administration has failed in its responsibility and own stated goals to prevent a wider regional conflict.

Which part of that reads like genocide support to you? The condemnation of Netanyahu or of Biden?

You have a literal fucking nazi takeover on your streets and you're complaining about... liberal fascists? Didn't Lenin have something to say about you ultra leftists types?
