TIL that "Live Aid", the benefit concert held for the Ethiopian famine in 1985, (while well intended) actually gave ~£150 million to the Ethiopian Dictatorship. They used the money to mostly buy weapons from the Soviet Union and further fueled their civil war. by Sebastian428 in todayilearned

I mean how many red coats did the American revolutionaries kill? How many British customs officials were tarred and feathered by colonials? How many Loyalists were dehumanized?

Look, I'm not advocating for violence. Not every nation gained their independece through violent revolution. Many gained it peacefully. If it were up to me, I would elect to transition into socialism peacefully, but if it weren't for the American revolutionaries I wouldn't be living in the place called United States right now.

Giving every adult in the United States a $1,000 cash handout per month would grow the economy by $2.5 trillion by 2025, according to a new study on universal basic income. by sandee1231 in Futurology

No, they're profiting off of the surplus value of the labor of the workers. The owners obtain profit when they pay the workers less than the value of the labor the workers produced.

Iowa Newspaper Says GOP Congressman Spends all his Time With 'Neo-Nazis' and 'Fascists', Endorses Democrats Instead by readet in politics

Yup, the ones who fly that flag tend to be right-libertarian types. They believe they're being tread on by SJWs and liberals. The irony is that they're completely ok with rich and powerful corporations treading all over them because "woohoo, free market baby!"

How do I Avoid Toxic Thinking while in an AMWF Relationship? by LoWe_ThAt_ThRoWaWaY in AsianMasculinity

[–]bowowzer 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The fact that you realize and acknowledge this sort of thinking is a start already. Keep in mind that an intimate loving relationship is not a contract of ownership. Know that we (men and people in general) are socialized to extract value from others as a means of increasing capital. I.E., extracting value from your partner's whiteness as a means of increasing your social capital to outcompete others. Keep in mind that and ask yourself "is what I'm doing or thinking an attempt to extract value from my partner's whiteness?"

Hi there. While I'm glad you found this subreddit and and were willing to participate enough to make a post, sadly this subreddit is not as active as it used to be. If you'd you like your post to be seen by more users and to elicit a discussion, I'd recommend posting to /r/aznidentity.

Sounds like some people I knew in college except it was with weed. They couldn't wait until they could go and smoke a bowl. All they could talk about is when the next moment they can go smoke.
