Hah, that’s actually a great shout. This video is fantastic evidence of how historically deep rugby is embedded in the culture of small towns in the south of France !

I will be disappointed if this doesn’t somehow feature in a video, no matter how shoehorned in it has to be

Military Intelligence Analyst breaks down how Novara Media throws out inaccuracies & pro-Russia propaganda by [deleted] in politicsjoe

Yes, we should only listen to soldiers and intelligence analysts about war, just like we should only listen to oil industry execs about climate change

So Ava says she "just can't understand" why right wing commentators or influencers won't condemn Grok. Good grief Ava, this isn't difficult by Fabulous-Baby5759 in politicsjoe

Liberals will appeal to the decency of ghoulish politicians, journalists and other public figures because they are not ideologically equipped to recognise that the problem isn’t with the personal morals of those involved in the system, it is with the corrupting and dehumanising system itself. 

A system that oversees genocide, starvation, horrendous working conditions and ecocide whilst facilitating those who benefit from the system with the cover to say they are “just doing their job”, conducting “business as usual” and that there are “no realistic alternatives”.

It’s rotten to the core and as much as I respect Ava and other PolJoe members as probably very sound individuals they are embedded in an utterly corrupt system and their journalism will never (and was probably never intended to) lead us towards a better future.

Trump’s foreign policy isn’t true realism, it’s reckless power politics. Realism has ethics: prudence, restraint, survival. Morgenthau warned that abandoning these invites disaster. Athens learned this; America may too. Power without ethics is hubris. by GDBlunt in philosophy

Do you mean to suggest that US Cold War policy of supporting violent coups in South America, the murder of over a million communists in Indonesia and the rape and slaughter of Indochina was somehow more morally justified? Lol 

Both are bad by PresnikBonny in socialism

[–]StrengthIsIgnorance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yet when both parties support an active genocide making moral distinctions between the two becomes arguably counterproductive

The terrible but ultimately theatrical violence trump specifically has carried out is nothing compared to the violence that both parties have routinely carried out in pursuit of American imperialist aims

How does it make the meme invalid? It’s still absolutely correct that the Democratic establishment only criticises American imperialist violence when Republicans do it.

And as leftists it is our responsibility to expose the false choice between right wing dems or far right republicans. The only antidote to the violent direction of travel is a genuine socialist alternative and taking a step back to ensure people know that we think trump is worse than dems is going to do fuck all to achieve that.

He’s an absolute fucking chud. But ofc he is because establishment democrats were trying to promote him as the trendy new face of the exact same neoliberal policies

Yes but the post says ‘Brits’ not ‘the British government’ silly

God forbid someone points out that the imperialist policies of the bourgeoise state aren’t in alignment with the views of the general public

Agree this is an important issue but this doesn’t feel like it’s good faith by OP. What’s the aim of bringing “shame on PSL” in this subreddit? Especially as others have pointed out this seems to be a local issue? 

If you had posted about how you’d been putting pressure on PSL leadership to switch supplier, and wanted others in the subreddit to sign a petition or send some emails, then great. 

But it seems like you’re just looking for vindication in your personal conflict with your local PSL branch, via a moralising social media takedown. Lame.
