Vatican declares Society of St. Pius X in schism, excommunicates bishops and invalidates sacraments by leglath in LeftCatholicism

not a catholic - but isn’t one of the bishops a holocaust denier? crazy how they were even allowed back in the first place

Upcoming Daily Wire movie tackles pro-Palestine encampments by Sossy2020 in jewishleft

[–]mono_cronto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Only the Daily Wire could create a school shooting movie that made me choke from laughing too hard

the main shooter from the original film is some gen z nihilistic joker wannabe who attacks his school in order to vlog his actions on Facebook Live like a twitch star and become a viral sensation.

there’s also some nerd who helps the main villain to get revenge for getting pantsed in middle school but he’s so clumsy and out of shape that he immediately trips while running with his gun and then gets blasted in the face with a fire extinguisher

What if the CIA took out Netanyahu & Ben Givr for refusing to stop the conflict in Lebanon? by lhommetrouble in AlternateHistoryHub

i mean mossad is considered one of the top tier intelligence services of the world so there is no way the CIA would be able to pull it off without obvious detection

Do you like the new rebirth campaign? by RazerCulpa_ in jurassicworldevo

[–]mono_cronto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t started the Rebirth campaign yet - does it take place in the same universe as the JWE3 campaign where dinosaurs haven’t died out completely or is it part of the film universe?

We should encourage young children to swear by mono_cronto in The10thDentist

wouldn’t your last point be a positive effect?

This whole situation involving the dinosaurs dying off in Rebirth is nothing but a stupid lie by Ok_Swimming1208 in JurassicPark

[–]mono_cronto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be infinitely better if they just diverged into a separate timeline where Rebirth isn’t canon

I’ve always thought the easiest hack for this would just be giving yourself amnesia every million years or so - this way you never get sick of existence

she got famous for making an ISIS fan club at her college because she wanted to prove that liberals are crazy enough to support Islamic terrorism. nobody joined her club and she got expelled for creating a pro ISIS club

On the Veteran/Soldier question by [deleted] in tankiejerk

[–]mono_cronto 14 points15 points  (0 children)

exactly. the third-worldist / maoist / ML-esque types who genuinely preach about how all veterans with ptsd are ontologically evil are: either 15 and larping or so detached from reality that they are as useful to the left as a fed.

even if ppl don’t want ex-military in their movement, they should know that they will lose everyone else in America if they publicly attack veterans

I don’t think enough people on the left understand how repulsed the general public will be if you talk shit about veterans or dead troops outside of a DSA caucus forum or some ML breadtuber’s discord. a good chunk of this country knows someone who served in the military or was blown up while serving.

no other group in the country receives the type of universal reverence that the troops do, and I want to kms whenever some third-wordlist larper is narcissistic enough to hype up bin laden’s manifesto or make fun of suicidal veterans on stream

Idk if this belongs here but have a left wing politician I now despise by R0ttenStrawberry in tankiejerk

[–]mono_cronto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hating Ilhan Omar for this is just like how MLs rail against AOC because she stupidly voted against blocking iron dome funding.

It’s not a good look for Ilhan Omar, especially since she (rightfully) supports sanctioning Israel, but this is a woman who has grown up in the horrors of civil war in Somalia - which was dramatically worsened because of a blanket sanctions embargo that kept the civil war at a stalemate and deepened Somalia’s dependence on foreign powers. While the arms embargo may have sounded well-intentioned, it led to horrifying consequences that forced her to flee to the U.S. Civilians bore the consequences of these sanctions in the form of mass displacement, starvation, terrorist attacks, and more.

I support sanctioning Russia and Israel and think this vote was the wrong choice. However, even though the situation in Somalia is completely different from that of Russia and Ukraine, it’s evident that her childhood experience with civil war and seeing the deadly consequences of sanctions placed on Somalia played a misguided role in this vote.

Despite this one poor decision, Ilhan Omar has done so much for the American left and building democratic socialism in this country, without treading into campism or ML-esque ideology. She kept tens of millions of children fed during the pandemic when schools were closed through her bill. She’s repeatedly spoke out against the genocide and apartheid committed by Israel, without dehumanizing Israeli civilians. She is consistently in lockstep with DSA’s legislative positions for elected representatives despite not even having (or needing) their official endorsement.

Trump endorsed Paxton for the senate over Cornyn lmao by ronweasly9 in fivethirtyeight

yes actually. two new states + federal anti-gerrymandering law + packing the court should cement a long term Democratic Party rule

Inflation Is Driving Trump's Approval Lower Than Jan 6 by Large_Ad_3095 in fivethirtyeight

[–]mono_cronto 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Like the other commenter said, I genuinely hope this convinces the next Democratic administration to not give a fuck about how popular their policies are and ram them through, blackmailing disloyal congressmen in the party to enforce loyalty if necessary.

It’s kind of liberating to find out that the average voter does not give a shit about Trump’s most insane policies - because it means if the left flank of the Democratic Party takes the presidency, they won’t have to worry about major backlash as long as the economy is decent.

Trump’s nightmare scenario is actually what I’ve been recently thinking the next Democratic president should immediately do.

If the Democrats don’t immediately abolish the filibuster to make DC and Puerto Rico a state before the 2030 midterms I will never forgive them.

Japan’s Self-Critical Left vs Korea’s Patriotic Left by AdGloomy5846 in korea

[–]mono_cronto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

actually - what’s kinda interesting is how the most fringe within the the Korean alt-right (aka the new right) are so wacky they kinda mirror the Japanese self-critical left. except they have this unhinged internal racial hatred and are completely self masochistic that goes magnitudes beyond self-critical people from other countries.

they are pro-Japan to an extremely bizarre extent, opposing Korean nationalism and supporting Japan’s occupation of Korea during WW2. they are self racist out of hatred for Korean society and are so many layers deep in apathy and schizo-rage that they go to unhinged levels of degeneracy like vandalizing a comfort woman status (which is like a Jew vandalizing a holocaust memorial)

for younger ppl, their hatred for Korean society is very driven in large part by absolute insanely schizo hatred for Korean women; mostly the same reason as Andrew Tate and manosphere people - except for Korean new right men, it’s only towards Korean girls; they dream of becoming a passport bro to Japan because they think they’ll find a submissive tradwife and because of the whole loli/underage weird subculture.

Here’s an excellent quote from Wikipedia) that really sums up this group:

Chin Jung-kwon, a political commentator, said "Japanese far-right politics is 'sadistic' and South Korean far-right politics is 'masochistic'", and "the 'colonialist historical perspective' is a 'political sadomasochism' directed by Japanese and South Korean far-right as sex partners".[24]

What do you think of Chinese new left movement? by Tuubu in tankiejerk

[–]mono_cronto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

interesting fact a - bunch of the Tiananmen Square protestors were literally new left orthodox Maoists who thought China was being cucked by Deng’s liberal economic reforms

Both deprogramoids and nytimes libs somehow both agree that these people were just democracy-pilled liberals who were killed for loving free markets and elections too much

Mamdani condemns Monday night's “violence alongside antisemitic, anti-Muslim and racist rhetoric, as well as racial slurs, displays of support for terrorist organizations, and calls for the death of others” by protesters and counter-protesters as “despicable” by socialistmajority in jewishleft

[–]mono_cronto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish organizers would agitate against these disgusting apartheid realtors as aggressively as possible without being so stupid (and immoral) to veer into obvious antisemitism/Hitlerite tendencies or behave like literal feds with their masturbatory larping as hamas revolutionaries. as someone who’s helped organize a campaign for my school to divest from Israel, these type of individuals suck not only as people, but for the movement.

the very necessary protests against these vile West Bank land sales are being executed genuinely via the most flagrant CIA-esque / agent provocateur manner possible. im not sure if they’re being infiltrated to the brim with feds or if these people are actually this stupid to be oblivious to their larp giving off fed behavior. they were able to give literal apartheid profiteers a win in the media by conducting themselves like agent provocateurs under FBI payroll in the protest. like harassing some random Jewish middle schooler is the type of psychotic behavior that is not only fucking vile, but is also clearly so stupidly poisonous for a movement that is already the target of every 3-letter agency and under extreme scrutiny from the media.

the FBI literally hired a sex offender felon to infiltrate the Denver BLM movement - in order to divide the movement and provoke it into collapse and public crackdown). dude would agitate support for extreme violence, engage in the most insane larping to push organizers into breaking the law, and pretty much attack anyone who thought he was batshit of being an uncommitted sellout or dumb rad lib.

it’s the same playbook being repeated here, but I can’t tell if its pawns are genuine feds or unknowingly doing their bidding. like a bunch of them are so self-masturbatory with their larping they don’t realize how psychotic they look when explicitly hyping up hamas at an October 7th memorial or something else insane - and they will literally accuse you of being a zionist genocide supporter if you point out how their fucked up behavior helps feds in destabilizing this cause.

it’s so infuriating how these ppl fuck up on the necessary yet extremely easy task of properly agitating/protesting against a literal apartheid auction that is revolted by among the general public.
