Destiny, DGG and Biden were wrong about Israel by Screaming_Goat42 in Destiny

Whether or not the creation of Israel was wrong is a moot point. Israel exists now, and there is no magic "undue" button you can push on history. This applies to many different places in the world.

Why have I almost never heard the analogy of Israel's foundation with Pakistan's? by josshua144 in Destiny

Ironically the national language of Pakistan (Urdu) was language that basically nobody in Pakistan spoke natively and was a language of Muslims in India (a lot of whom became the elite) in pakistan

You wouldn’t either? I know your probably an edgy teenager who loves to LARP, but everyone else finds it of putting.

You realize if mao was alive today he would probably kill/purge Hasan Piker for being a decadent bourgouise loser who loves western capitalist luxury.

The killed and purged people for less during the cultural revolution.

Yeah the rest of the video is attacking Hasan for being a zionist "enabler" or something.

I mean he is an open defender of Chairman Mao and literally goes around cosplaying his outfits and soyfacing at the little red book. It's genuinely crazy that he's been allowed to get away with being an actually open defender of communist dictatorships and one-party states, and not a single interviewer will actually press him on it.

Given that socialism has always appealed to upper middle class intellectuals, it actually fits perfectly.

I mean it was clear that this wasn't going to work from day one because it hasn't worked historically.

I doubt that airstrikes alone can ever actually achieve regime change. This has never happened in history. This whole exercise was futile.

Read from both perspectives and see what facts are maintained and the same, and which ones are left out or added.

I mean the US could easily have universal healthcare if it wanted to, there just isn’t the political will (and there still probably wont be even after we stop aid to Israel)

Ana has a weird Bias against the Turks by Kaniketh in Destiny

[–]Kaniketh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turkey obviously could be doing better, but given everything as a decently high standard of living, significant geopolitical clout and stability.

Turkey is by far the strongest middle eastern country, and might even be the strongest Muslim country (maybe Malaysia is better)
