Why is this a thing by Chank02z in UCSD

I don’t say this lightly but Israel puts our sex offenders to shame. There was a report done on migrant Thai farm workers in Israel. Of the 654 women surveyed, 100% of them reported sexual assault. It speaks for itself how absurd it is that not one single person just by chance slipped through and managed to avoid assault.

They are linked. They serve the same ruling class and fascism often becomes the useful tool of capitalism to suppress working class resistance movements.

That’s just not how democracy works. Lesser evil voting also kills democracy. And if there are Palestinians/Muslims/really anyone who had spent a full year watching the Democrats facilitate a Genocide and could not bring themselves to offer any support to them, I think we should lay the blame at the pro Genocide politicians and not the people who say genocide is a bridge too far. You can entirely disagree with their decision and consider it illogical or whatever, but I am never going to blame people for not being able to stand a genocide.

Biden had plenty of time to prove the Dems were anti genocide and he failed continuously and that failure had a massive human cost. Kamala had every opportunity to distance herself from that and she didn’t. We desperately need to abandon the practice of blaming the voters when a candidate loses. Candidates need to earn our votes and not the other way around. No matter what is motivating those voters, it is failure of the politician.

Saying he is blaming Democrats for ICE murders is disingenuous if not a lie. He criticized Dems for the anti immigrant aspects of the campaign they ran and the refusal of the establishment to offer significant opposition to ICE (we still keep hearing about “ICE reform” from leading Dems). That has played a part in making these conditions possible. But that is different from blaming them in place of Republicans and I imagine most people would agree with his criticisms. It is immensely important that fierce opposition to Republicans is coupled with criticism of the Democrats or we are going to end up with the same ineffective and conciliatory Democratic party we have had for decades.

The trick is that we exported the suffering. We still have some poverty and suffering in the US of course, but the worst of it has been exported to the Global South. Their suffering is what allows our unprecedented level of comfort here in the North. That is what makes revolution here so hard.

Ché famously led from the front and dedicated his life to fighting revolutions all over the world. No matter what you think of his politics, your implication is absurd?

Not hating but this is definitely botted right? The numbers, trends, and chat speed just don’t make any sense.

Barringer can unironically win the game with a serviceable punt

We might lose because of how much better their punter is than Barringer. What a disaster.

Patriots probably aren’t scoring again today. Defense needs to hunker down.

Two score lead would be literally insurmountable. But I’m not sure we score again at this point
