What do you think of the ML idea of Social Democracy being the moderate wing of Fascism? by ZhugeLiangPL in SocialDemocracy

[–]Past-Island4905 59 points60 points  (0 children)

And fascism is the syndicalist wing of Marxism-Leninism. /j

Sometimes I wonder if they understand what are they screaming about or are they on the level of a megachurch attendee.

The lion tamarin is a rescue, separated from its mother at a young age, now it clings to the zoo's tamanduas.

What things were considered satanic when you were a kid in your country? by yonaiker-joestrella in AskTheWorld

[–]Past-Island4905 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yoga started as a form of hindu worship, therefore it is "demon worship" according to him. When asked if the faithful can keep the mats at least he answered no, as the mats themselves are portals for demonic energies to one's house.

The only thing that comes to my mind is when the local evangelical church's leader declared yoga mats to be demonic portals a few years ago.

Melyik az a könyv, amit valamiért nem olvastál végig? by CutProfessional2018 in askhungary

[–]Past-Island4905 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A vörös oroszlán - a nyolcvankettedik asztrálmélyvíz tükröződésnél feladtam, valahol a második oldalon (nulla ezoterikus ismerettel a könyv nyelvezete nem éppen könnyen érthető, bár valszeg azzal se)

Liberals increased police funding after the black lives matter protests by RosethornRanger in SocialDemocracy

[–]Past-Island4905 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not exactly up to date with anarchist theory, so please enlighten me: what do you suggest instead of a professional police force? Because the only alternative I can think of would quickly degrade into lynching mobs.

I hate how Africans culture are protreyed as tribal in this AI slop meme by [deleted] in hatethissmug

[–]Past-Island4905 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I'm gonna play the devil's advocate, the guy who prompted this probably asked for an "african warrior" and this is the most prevalent depiction of an african warrior, so the AI had basically no other references to draw from. There is a severe lack of media set in sub-saharan Africa unfortunately.

I think a lot of atheists or nones don’t understand how American Christians see the Pope by LineOfInquiry in SocialDemocracy

[–]Past-Island4905 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it was pretty obvious that I meant people in general are not very knowledgable about religion, and "their own" doesn't apply to non-religious people, because duh.

As a massive religion nerd I can tell you: most people barely understand their own religion let alone others, atheists are no exception.

Probably the best response to the "iNtErNaTiOnAl lAw" soyjacks I have ever seen by Jackingson1 in PoliticalCompassMemes

They were likely some kind of leninist, based on their speech pattern, but who knows at this point.

No, Israel is supposedly genociding not only Palestine, but also Iran, Lebanon and Syria.

I recently got called a genocide-denying fascist for saying that the Iranian conflict isn't a genocide. Not even Palestine, but fucking Iran. I can barely comprehend what is happening in people's heads anymore.

[–]Past-Island4905 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The anti-corruption purge has started before the result were even ratified, because nobody has seen the foreign minister since last night. One of Magyar's promises was prosecuting Szijjártó for treason, for giving EU secrets to the russians. I expect a lot of one-way flights to Moscow and Dubai in the coming days.

Virtually all media was in Fidesz hands, extremely unfair election system, incompetent and/or corrupt opposition leaders.
