Founding fathers would be pissed that [slur removed] are voting. The constitution was written to oppress these people.

Way to throw disabled people under the bus because you aren’t clever enough to find another way to insult their intelligence.

Also using the phrase “civilized people” makes you sound like you’d fit in with the other Republicans.

Europe is America’s pet.

And dipshit Euros are too dumb to realize it without Trump threatening to take territory. Biden told them to sit and cut off Russian oil at a huge cost to their economies, and they did like a good obedient boy. This dating analogy implies some autonomy, of which there is none. When Europe finally starts resisting, America will put on the shock collar.

Lenin’s “Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism” explains this precisely.

Bush was worse than Trump.

The limiting factor of American military action is neither will nor the number of adversaries. It is logistics. America will not suddenly be more prone to using violence when its soft power runs dry, because the core logistical challenge has not changed. In fact, the opposite will occur, having fewer methods to keep its allies from withdrawing support.

Trump eating like shit is a phony PR campaign to win support from middle America. Dude has dozens of private chefs. He absolutely eats healthier than the average American. He just eats McDonalds when cameras are rolling.

Communists don’t want to win elections, they want a proletarian dictatorship, one that completely subjugates the bourgeois class, which you cannot do from within the bourgeois class’s state.

The hammer and sickle is what guarantees that optics will not come before that goal. No AOC will fly your flag to convince people to vote for Kamala Harris.

Famous Russian propagandists CNBC and the IMF

Damn, we have our own dedicated China bad propagandists now, big growth milestone for Lemmy.

Horses and water and drinking and whatnot

RCV won’t fix bourgeois democracy anyway.

Liberals will co-opt anyone who doesn’t flag a hammer and sickle flag

With regards to the Global South I expect the effects are going to be fairly immediate because China is the country that’s helping Global South develop and build out infrastructure

This is actually why I say those effects will take a while for the global south. Construction projects usually take years before their utility is realized. In the meantime, there is no alternative to the dollar for the global south. They cannot oppose unilateral sanctions yet, nor can they organize against US imperialism.

I’ve been pleasantly impressed by the rate of progression in recent years, but I’m not getting my hopes up for an early miracle. I’ll pray for the collapse of the dollar, but my bet is on 10-20 years before the US cannot wield their economic posture as a weapon against most of the world.

Can you elaborate? What tampering do you mean, what benefits does it provide, and why would the be lost because of this move?

It will certainly have some immediate effects, but the actual breaking down of dollar hegemony will definitely take upwards of a decade…which is still fast in terms of geopolitics time. Unfortunately for the global south, the effects that will accelerate their liberation will fall towards the later ends of this timeframe.

Show me a single dead Uighur. Show me any evidence at all.

Lemme guess, the only evidence you’ll be able to provide is either:

• Adrian Zenz’s “research” or media citing it.
• that single picture of the Kashgar inmates watching a drug awareness presentation.
• testimony from some person in Uighur World Congress (who are such a puppet of US dept of state that they cant even have solidarity with fellow Muslims in Palestine by recognizing their genocide) saying they have missing family members.

Tell me:

• what purpose does this genocide serve China?
• how does China prevent any evidence at all from getting out? Is their great firewall more effective than Israel knocking out every cell tower and cutting all ISP lines? Why can we see that genocide despite Israel spending billions to stifle info getting out? Are Uighurs that much more afraid of retribution than the Palestinians who know they will be martyred for fighting back?
• why did Muslim majority countries not unite to denounce this “genocide” like they did Gaza? Did Xi bribe them all?
• where is the satellite footage showing the infrastructure needed to carry out an industrial scale genocide? Why isn’t the US coming forth with it if they have it?
• do the Han Chinese hate Muslims? If so, why aren’t they also genociding the Hui Muslims who are much more divout?
• why does Xinjiang have more mosques than all of Europe if they hate Muslims enough to kill off its least devout followers?
• why UN inspectors came and found no evidence of genocide. How come the report has nothing more than “human rights abuses” (the most severe of which also occur daily in US prisons, who won’t allow inspections from international bodies.)

You are just another dog of the US State Department. Israel thanks you for your whataboutism to diminish the severity of their very real, US funded genocide. Muslims everywhere appreciate your valient efforts to protect a Muslim group from an imaginary genocide.

You’d fight us but not Republicans because we destroy the notion that you’re the good guys. You both want to preserve the status quo, with libs preferring marginally less grotesque methods of enforcement, and superficially opposing the fucked up methods Republicans prefer to employ. Good cop vs. bad cop routine, and you hate us because we’re pointing out that the good cop wants us imprisoned too.

Let’s be real, in actual prison, you’d be making aliances with the skinheads and guards 15 minutes in, then call on them to do your dirty work instead of doing any fighting yourself.

Same dynamic you’re employing right now actually: “Fall in line or I’ll sic the Republicans on you!” while fantasizing about the left getting sent to the camps for daring to oppose your brand of status quo preservation…just like Republicans, but less honest about your intentions.

Dipshits of both lib and fash varieties fail to recognize themselves as allies in defence of capitalism, imperialism, patriarchy, and white supremacy, yet somehow you always instinctively know who is more important to fight, the left.

The SPD voted for the concentration camps the KPD died in. Same dynamic will play out here.

You defended Biden for not closing the migrant camps, understanding that you would never spend a second inside one. We opposed them the entire time, not caring that they’d eventually be used for us.

Smart fascists understand how useful your brand of performative opposition is to legitimizing the system that keeps the treats flowing, so even if they throw did your ass in prison to appease their base (they won’t), you’ll be let go. You’re too useful an idiot for keeping the real opposition (communists) from taking power.

W & Dick Cheney

Working as Thomas Jefferson intended. The “well-meaning, but uninformed people” were those who opposed slavery and today oppose the land owning class.
