If NASA was able to be completely decoupled from the military industrial complex, you might have a point. But as it stands, whatever they discover, especially if it turns out to be tactically advantageous, will immediately be classified and used only for secret military shit.

Didn’t Rosa Luxemburg meet her partners through organizing?

Cool then he can go join the IDF and go into Gaza and get owned. I fully support his right to do that

For what it’s worth, I think an org should also have other activities. That means like a bowling night or something. Or a movie night, dinner night, or going out to a bar night. And, this might ruffle some feathers, it should also be a place where you can meet someone for dating, a fling, etc. That’s how most people meet each other, through a shared activity (like school, a club, church, etc.). Democrats and Republicans meet each other in shared spaces like that all the time, but for some reason it’s like the ultimate taboo to talk about it in leftist circles. But why? Just cuz some peeps here and there developed sex cult personalities? How many comrades of the past met each other through the Soviet Party or the Communist Party of China or in Cuba or Vietnam? Probably millions.

DSA: Libs who don’t really get anything done except tell you to vote for AOC (and they can’t even control their elected candidates) and Biden

WFP: Completely fucked up by supporting Warren in 2020

Local Democrats: Might as well CW yourself

CPUSA: Fed central

They already had the reveal that gov bodies knew about all the details of the attack in advance,

I don’t buy this when they say it. If you’re referring to that New York Times article where Israeli intelligence basically claimed to have the Oct. 7 Hamas attack handbook, then yeah it’s all BS in my opinion. Mouin Rabbani, when talking to Rania Khalek, said it best:

now of course um in addition to operation sword of iron which is um the operational name of the Israeli Onslaught on the Gaza Strip there’s an equally important operation being conducted which is known as operation cover your ass in which every Israeli official and their brother claims to have known exactly what was going to happen warned everyone about it but it was someone else’s fault that they didn’t do anything um I don’t take these issues uh seriously I mean you even had a long article in the New York Times um that the Israelis actually had a copy of Hamas’s Master planning document for the um uh October 7th attack but maybe they thought it was a short story I don’t know um you know first of all I very much doubt whether such a document even exists um it was probably written by someone in the Israeli intelligence agents to give to the New York Times to show that you know it wasn’t us you need to talk to it was a fault of the politicians or it was a fault of the army um and then you had a um a day or two later an article in the Jerusalem Post which even though operating under rules of Israeli military censorship I thought was much more accurate that they had no information which is why they were um unable to prepare

I like Rania’s reply too:

yeah it’s uh you know you could just imagine if you’re uh involved in some sort of militant activity and you’re preparing a very secret operation that nobody knows about but you definitely wrote it all down and somehow you know it ended up in the hands of the Israelis I mean it’s it’s kind of absurd on its face

(at 24:55 to about 26:25) in the same vid above.

does “unlimited genocide on the global north” or other variations really sound like something you should say?

It’s pretty much a site-culture thing. No one actually wants to commit genocide on anyone. Honestly it sounds like you’re doing some bad faith concern trolling here, so you do you fam…

i have all the [he/him]s on the website telling me that this is actually a very funny joke.

Uh… there are other pronouns saying that. Are you trying to pull an AOC here? LOLOLOLOLOLOL

In the US: “We should really do something about money in politics!”

China: Actually does something

US: AUTHORITARIANISM!!!

“but don’t block japan, I want to have a submissive real life anime waifu!!!”

I can’t believe I believed in him just a few years ago…

They would have banned you for hurting these chud’s feelings

Ok so when China supposedly “genocides” uighurs (which has been thoroughly debunked), it’s ok to call it genocide?

But when the word is used against what IS actually a genocide against the Palestinians, well then it’s all (in annoying reddit nerd voice): “UMm, Ackshually… we shouldn’t be using that word anymore! I AM VERY SMART!!! PLEASE FEEEMALES DATE ME!!!”

Maybe there’s a deeper discussion to be had on when the word is appropriate to use, but this article is 100000000000000% only doing it because they are worried about the term being applied to Israel. They are not having a good faith discussion about this. They are weaponizing this sort of philosophizing to obfuscate their real objectives. fuck them, don’t engage with this obvious ploy, just make fun of them until they run away crying

A lot of them are autistic as well, they just fell into reactionary thinking for whatever reason. I remember Destiny was talking to some incel/alt-right guy that had a speech impediment and was clearly autistic, yet this guy wanted to remove all the PoCs from America so that he would have a shot with white women lololol.

As I pointed out earlier, factually posters here do care about lonely men

Yeah I’m just not buying it, especially since there was a sticked post (above all other posts, for the better part of TWO WHOLE DAYS) about the Bell Hooks book and it only received 35 comments: https://hexbear.net/post/1147813?scrollToComments=false. For comparison, my post about raking leaves had 28 comments: https://hexbear.net/post/1123921. And a post about herbal cigarettes gets 17 comments.

So yeah, when people say “bUt ThE lEfT dOeS cArE aBoUt LoNeLy MeN!!!” I feel like I’m being gaslighted by like an entire galaxy worth of gaslights… At this point if the right starts recruiting legions of lonely men and they become fascists, then what else can I say except “I told you so.” That’s on the left for failing to engage with them in a real, meaningful way instead of just telling them “READ BELL HOOKS!” Like bro this is 2023, if you wanna engage someone you can’t just tell them to read a book, it’s almost insulting and sounds very elitist. You gotta make youtube videos, tiktoks, etc. Make it short but impactful, as well as engaging. If they want to learn more then they’ll start reading “deeper” stuff.

On the flip side there are lots of Asian and Asian American women with internalized racism that refuse to date Asian guys and themselves have white fever (to mirror the yellow fever that many white guys have). It’s just fucked all around.

I’m kinda torn on this one. For me, I like and dislike traits that are strongly stereotypical of certain races. So much so that, if I were a less self aware person, I’d just express that preference plainly.

I mean yeah, I get you, sometimes I’d prefer to live in a neighborhood that didn’t have any of those “pesky blacks and hispanics,” but I’d rather not express that plainly either, so I’ll just secretly choose to live in a segregated white neighborhood. I’m REALLY TORN ON THIS ONE…

bUt PeOpLe ArE aLlOwEd To HaVe PrEfErEnCeS!!!

Racial “preferences” in dating. No matter how they cut it, it’s racist. Yet people will say “it’s ok to have preferences!”

Yeah sure… I mean back in the day many people “preferred” to not eat with black ppl… jesus fucking christ the racial preferences in dating really ticks me off (especially when you see someone who is otherwise “liberal” and “hates hate” date only white people)

Failing to diagnose properly, if at all

Acting like they are superior in every way

Getting upset if you research stuff yourself beforehand

Telling you that it’s either “stress-related” or “age-related”

Etc. Etc.

Don’t vote, and whoever tries to shame me can go climb a tree
