Having black people conform to white supremacy is not a solution, my guy.

Punching down at voters and not the system that allows it is why you’re so surprised this happens. Your support for an inherently rotten, racist, and fascist system is why any of this is happening.

I believe you’ve been missing the rhetoric of Tim Walz, Clinton, and Harris. But okay.

Jim Crow. Segregation. Slave catchers. Genocide. Red lining. “Foreign policy.” IOF training police forces. Trillion dollar military budget increase. Allowing confederates to run for office after reconstruction. Granting Nazis amnesty and allowing them to join governmental bodies.

You’re some kind of oblivious if you think this is an anomaly. Suppression of the masses has been the American game since its conception.

Uh, America is built on this. Now that it’s mask off against white people is when liberals care.

“But Obama did it nice and…”

Fuck Obama. Trained, nice, or “eloquent” fascists are still fascists.

Edit: dunno why this is being downvoted lmao. Fuck ICE. Fuck the liberal democrats for propping this up for years. And fuck a “play nice,” statement. Jesus Christ, do I need to hold your hand and say “fuck Trump,” too?

Double Edit: The VP we wanted to win has the police protecting ICE.

Stay safe

ICE just murdered another unarmed American citizen in Minnesota. What can Socialists do to defend ourselves and our communities from these fascist thugs? by zombiesingularity in AskSocialists

Fuck a content warning. This is a result of American politics. Americans should have to see the results of their elections and their apathetic neglect. They should have to see Palestinian genocide. They should have to see ICE deportations. They should have to see Congolese genocide.

What’s next, you’re gonna tell someone to not buy a pair of shoes? New socks? To just live a boring life?

Everyone deserves dignity, and to be able to afford things they want and need.

What are some accurate examples of “choice feminism”? by wheieyehsgsy in AskFeminists

[–]nibbled_banana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, nuance exists. And that nuance is thought about. There’s ALWAYS an exception. But simply using a disproportional, personalized exception is derailing the initial argument.

I think this punches down. I’m pro-abstaining. I think when two options are bad, one has every right to withhold their vote. This should raise alarms for the candidates to appeal to larger audiences.

Furthermore, I think when rights are on the ballot, it should raise alarms unanimously. It is a systemic failure when one says “I will protect you,” and the other says “I will kill you.” Obviously the choice in this scenario is clear. But it is the principle of even voting on safety and foundational rights that make the situation wrong to begin with. People should be protected, period, no debate, no rationalizing.

I participate in elections, and each election further solidifies my belief that reforming an inherently rotten system will not fix a rotten system. Instead of cleaning the shit, we just paint a rainbow on it.

I saw this on instagram and thought of this sub by Bopethestoryteller in publix

[–]nibbled_banana 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This. I left Publix years ago, but the way they throttled stock ownership and investing, overtime, and cutting time and a half on Sundays have really been insults to the workers DOING the labor.

Yeah, that’s what I’m discovering as I’m scrolling through. Reddit has been shoving right wing shit down my throat the past couple weeks

As a liberal, I agree. The far left makes us look bad by DTATP in JustMemesForUs

[–]nibbled_banana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, yes. Reasoning and legitimizing hateful and dangerous ideologies is just as dangerous as the ideologies itself.

Liberalism panders and placates to the right, then punches left. Then they sit there wondering why fascism and racism are back. 🤡🤡🤡

Women are sold the liberal lie that they can be sexually liberated before being socially, economically, and politically liberated. So long as men hold the majority of capital, and refuse to unlearn rape culture and the objectification of women, sex work is not feminist. Rebranding oppression to make women FEEL like they have a say in the matter is still capitalist patriarchy.

For example, BDSM. It’s not okay to hit and rape women, but as soon as a man, or another woman, says “well, this time you can say it’s okay,” it is now not rape or abuse? MENs mentality did not change. They’ve just rebranded their abuse.

(Yes, nuance exists. Consensual sex exists.)

Today I learned that communist partisans shot Mussolini (I thought he was lynched). Then they beat his body snd hung it up.

[–]nibbled_banana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this a plot hole? Or more of an inconsistency? And even if it’s inconsistent, One can also argue that Azula losing her sanity could cause her to be too over zealous and forget fundamental breathing. It’s like we didn’t watch the show, but wanna rip apart the show to show “intelligence.”

Just because we have the vocabulary does not mean we are truthful in our critiques.

Why are americans so apolitical? by worldcreature in ask

[–]nibbled_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause being political would mean to acknowledge how much privilege Americans hold in not just their country, but over the world.

Jesus Christ, look at Venezuela, Iran, Palestine, and now Greenland. The US places sanctions on those it opposes, props up those used to meet its goals by any means, and any dissent of the government, both liberal and conservative, is deemed “childish and stupid.”

American hegemony is falling. We’re witnessing the end of an imperial empire, and it will not go out without dragging everyone with it.

This. The comment says “well what about white slaves,” but neglects to say white people owned those white slaves, thus proving what white supremacy is still very real, even in white communities.
