completely off the deep end. Like to compare robbing children to a drag show is idiotic? The solidarity of queers is the solidarity of thieves? Certainly not. Our solidarity is unconditional, if the right mocks it, what of it? A profoundly blockheaded statement

The vast majority of Argentina’s debt is IMF loans. Chinese loan schemes are a lot less predatory and they have better ways of dealing with odious debt. It was a piss take as opposed to anything else. Point is Argentina isn’t socialist
@NosferatuBob
My brother in Christ it’s not the bankers. Foreign capital has gotten out the lube, the local compradors are already mid-climax. Nature ain’t doing shit but getting fucked
@AngielsHere
Additionally China itself doesn’t claim to be communist they claim to be in the primary stage of socialism hence “socialism by 2050”. Just run by a communist party. If you want to be a dumbass on Twitter at least read on occasion
"I have only a short time to live, only one death to die, and I will die fighting for this cause."
Radical abolitionist John Brown was executed on this day in 1859 for trying to spark a revolution to free millions held in bondage. His soul goes marching on.

Boo hoo hoo, I understand that counter-revolutionary and reactionary forces which cannot be dissuaded with reform and are fundamentally opposed to the project of egalitarian transformation need to be dealt with. Violence is a means not an end, this is a means to make an oligarchy
It’s astounding how out of touch these people are. Ukraine’s running out of weapons and logistical support and their counteroffensive failed, the Red Sea coalition fell to tatters and the U.S. has been trying to fuck Iran by proxy for years. It’s over. Grow up
Really showing your ass as someone without principles and rather a flimsy ideology of perceived “non-conformity”. The aim to be radical or edgy or counterculture at all costs, is a folly, and to worship counterculture is to pray at the altar of dullards
We’re literally just saying you don’t have to be transphobic whilst hating Nazis, you’re given the dumbest, most self-mastubatory interpretation imaginable here
Jackson Hinkle and Nick Fuentes are two sides of the same stupid internet politics coin. Jackson is “based god muscle super communist who uses slurs to own the libs” and Fuentes is “twink racist”
Food insecurity is rising, but Republicans are trying to cut SNAP in the upcoming Farm Bill.
We must fight to increase access to food stamps, not cut them.
To everyone saying I’ll have a “Why I left the left” moment soon?
I’ll bet you $10,000 I won’t. Put your money where your mouth is. I’ll give you 2 to 1 odds and we’ll put the money in escrow.
I am leaving the crazies, not the left. Antisemitic progressives are not the left.
Thank you
@WeiWangPKU
for sharing this with me. Glad to know the slander of reactionaries hold no water. The queers belong in the communist movement. The translation of the banner: ”there is only ONE sexual orientation, that is the heart orientated towards”
@thejb_stan
I’m sorry it was literally founded on an ethnic cleansing and has been invading other countries constantly since ‘67, at no point has Israel ever deserved sympathy
I think this can especially be applied to Deng Xiaoping. When I was in a discussion with a self-proclaimed AnCom, they asked me “can’t productive forces be bolstered without inequality”. Which is a fair question to ask, for it gives me an excellent opportunity to exposit on how
This is why Losurdo likes G. W. F. Hegel and Deng Xiaoping so much.
He's against romantic sweetening, against rhetorically reaffirming one's ideals while insisting this or that is a "necessary evil."
If something is truly necessary we shouldn't speak of it as an "evil."

Bro you’re just a porn addict. Get off the Hub and get in the war if you’re so desperate to see Ukraine win. They can always use more bodies

It’s a common symbol of solidarity with Palestinians called a kaffiyah and they’re dirt cheap from online venders. This isn’t hard
The🔻is used by Hamas supporters because Hamas uses the🔻symbol in propaganda videos where they try kill people. Absolutely demented behaviour to post these death threats against me
@yugopnik
I think it’s less Bin Laden was a good guy, and more “Bin Laden wasn’t Muslim super Hitler and actually clearly articulated legitimate discontents which leads one to resorting to terror”
@smk30__
Terrorist is an ill-defined and polemical term with no legal or practical grounding. It exists singularly as a condemnation, of the construction of an absolute evil. It intends to portray one who’s goal as opposed to who’s means are terror.
If you are a queer western left-winger and you winge and complain about Palestine, you have no principles, no capacity to see beyond the rainbow vomit drenched view of empire you’ve made yourself comfortable with. take the correct line or admit you’re nothing more than a dog
“Folks the Gang of Four, this is what they say folks, they say socialism is poverty. That’s wrong folks, you’ve gotta free the productive forces, make them huge folks. Lin Biao, he won’t tell you to be rich is to be glorious folks. He’s a loser”

@robprof01
I mean the paradox of tolerance is a whole thing which applies exclusively to liberals, at least we’re just like, yeah class enemies won’t be fucking tolerated
No it’s a simple issue you’re just a coward. You can’t “but anti-semitism” Zionism, given the latter benefits and colludes with forces which promote the former. Of course opportunists will take advantage, that’s why you must stand firmer in the issue to combat it
@moonlit_misfit
antisemitism is just ... bad man
and its actually the main thing stopping me from saying "the israel-palestine conflict is a simple issue"
@pigholocaust
I used to be sympathetic to their orbiters and would give them some credit here and there but it’s clear they just have an opportunistic and fetishistic view of American workers in this aesthetic Heideggerian-Calvinist way. There’s no real class consciousness here at all
@john__qld
Accidentally spent 6 hours in The Beat gay nightclub the other night. Gay blokes all around me, some kissing like this. Wasn’t happy. Some of us just want to drink .

@BlackRedGuard1
There’s a reason your persona is that of a dog. It’s quite apt for a comprador state, it’s happy enough to be provided for but when master turns away to bigger and better specimen you whine and moan
They give our sad pathetic nonce rock ethics, morals, hard work and culture. You contribute a podcast about how oppressed you are as the real minority in Britain
@EdbieLigerSmith
I actually didn’t purposely clip it, I took it from another post. I understood the context I just still believe that there are problems with the analysis. I don’t believe you went “full reactionary” I just think there are a lot of issues with it. It was a tweet made in haste
@Sleepy_Josh98
Some of the most prominent members of the CPUSA were black. The black panthers were one of the most successful communist parties, black people have been one of the driving forces behind American Marxism
I believe that whilst the purity fetish is a useful heuristic and diagnosis of the modern left, it is a concept easily abused for those who do not wish to address internal contradictions. Carlos missed a trick by diagnosing its self-producing opposite, the impurity fetish
Liberal countries have large factions of petty-bourgeois ready to whip the conservative minded into a spiral about the crisis of gender, the decline of the west and the safety of children. Cuba has the world’s most progressive family code, Vietnam has been long considering
1984 is hilarious when you realize that a few bad interactions with communists during the Spanish Civil War led Orwell to develop a lifelong obsession with a man who didn't even know he existed
Stranger Things was a fucking terrible show anyway, it’s going to go the way of Orwell and Harry Potter wherein everyone realizes it’s total fucking garbage
