and the US humanities students infected by cultural Marxism! We are the true antifa, we swear!
Reminder that Georgia shot first, even the EU agrees with this officially, yet libs keep parroting that Russia invaded Georgia without provocation in 2008.
-umm I think, well maybe it wasn’t Russia who blew up their own multi-billion € pipelines? Maybe Biden had something to do with it, since Biden said “If Russia invades… again, then there will be longer Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it.” Maybe the US is involved somehow?
-what?!?! straight to jail
Listen, when it comes to Amerikkkan bullshit electoralism, you must choose the lesser evil. You have to be pragmatic! My utilitarian calculation says you should vote blue no matter who.
When it comes to nuclear brinkmanship, then doing diplomacy is literally Chamberlain 1938 and you have to make a principled stance even though the whole Earth might die in nuclear hellfire.
That’s a price liberals are willing to pay. Negotiating with Putin is weak. You should never compromise, no matter how many Ukrainians are sent to the meat grinder, even if nuking the whole planet is a real possibility.
Yes, liberals are the adults in the room
I wonder what is thinking right now. Did they manage to push Biden left? Did the Americans have a good and honest discussion about dismantling the two-party system?
Pre-AI print media becomes even more precious… in the next decades the AI slop will be everywhere including actual books. Truly a boring dystopia. Makes me sad & angry & frustrated. I also should buy more Art books… but they’re expensive…
Slaves should have voted the slavers out of government
The budget must be balanced. The markets need to be sated. We must heal the economy. Your nan has to be sacrificed.
Were the justifications of austerity always this self-evidently wrong?
Yes.
But usually they also use the subterfuge of comparing a sovereign nations budget to a household’s finances. "If you’re family is in debt, you have to cut spending. That is why nan needs to die in the cold. It’s basic economics. There is no alternative. The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money. "
wow it came as a complete surprise that Keir Starmer wants to employ austerity measures
Who would’ve taught, that Keir Starmer (of all people!), the person who waged war on social democrats, is a Thatcherite? wow
“We are taking the tough decisions now so we can fix the foundations and deliver on the mandate of change we were elected on to rebuild Britain.”
Remind me quick, what kind of economic policies they used after WW2 to literally rebuild Britain?
The West even had a whole-ass peace conference without Russia, but Biden didn’t RSVP because even they realized it’s a joke
they are
delusionallying
that somehow creates a position of strength that Ukraine can negotiate from.
Any day now!
It is so absurd that shitlibs argue for voting for the lesser evil, but then they literally cheer and clap for it.
There was a slight disillusionment among libs when the Biden/Trump debate happened, but now they all literally cheer for the same ghouls and literally plug their ears when you try to remind them of the genocide that is still happening.
Lesser evilism is stupid anyway, the whole point is that they are both evil… but then they cheer?! They don’t even pretend that the DNC is evil. Even the speeches were militaristic. At least Jon Stewart kinda made fun of them, just a tiny bit. He wouldn’t play the video of the libs plugging their ears.
It’s almost like lesser evilism is not sincere, but sophistry in order to get the left to cooperate with establishment parties.
We always jest about jokerifying moments, but this is clearly one of those. After you’ve seen it you can’t unsee it.
1964
It’s kinda weird they consider people born in the early 60s boomers, they grew up in a culturally different milieu compared to the actual boomers.
Being young adults in the 60s vs. the 80s. How are they the same generation?
“NATO is a necessary evil to be a bulwark against Russia”.
aware of and hate all of NATO’s war crimes and evil acts
You can’t deprogram brainworms such as this, they need to deprogram themselves.
But sure send them a bunch of links, then leave the convo.
No reasonable person could think that NATO is some kind of moral choice. Morality does not enter the calculus. NATO is constant sabre-rattling for the Western hegemony, Nothing more nothing less.
So they must think Western hegemony is morally good. They also probably think that USA was the lesser evil in the Cold War 1.0
I’ve watched a couple of minutes of Aaron Máté debating hasbara on Piers Morgan, and it always amazes me how natural they try to make settler colonialism. One of the debaters was Fleur Hassan.
Imagine having to debate settlers like this during the ongoing settler colonial genocide. They condescendingly talk to you about the “generous peace deals” they offered to the Palestinians and Iran being the puppet master of Hamas and Hezbollah.
It’s crazy. Fuckin mad world. Go back to London for fucks sake.
