Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

In fairness the UK is the population of a california and a half in the size of an alabama, they're a lot more centralized and easier to count lol

@AOC
so when joe manchin criticizes aoc it's fine, but when aoc criticizes joe manchin it's suddenly self-cannibalism and could cost democrats seats? 🤔
@nikicaga
"Less violent" and "nonviolent" are entirely different things. Prior to 9/11, most plane hijackings were done with the intention of hostage taking. That does not make them nonviolent: hostage taking is definitively an act of violence.

china is like one of the most famous empires in history and famously has a term for when it asserts cultural hegemony on the minorities within it (sinicization), and is actively undertaking the cultural (and literal) colonization of tibet and east turkestan

I think that the neighborhood is supposed to be a place to show people they can't just run away from what hurts them - that only causes more pain.

... he doesn't say Americans in the quote though. He says "the United States of America," which is objectively true, the US is complicit lol
@IRHotTakes
To be fair to TNO, it was promising in concept, showing how the inherent contradictions of fascism would not ever lead to peace and how a German "victory" would inevitably lead to more conflict and eventual collapse. It just... failed to stick the landing.

I keep saying, NC shouldn't be ignored! Not only is there still a decent shot at a flip (NC is very much purple) but there's an EXTREMELY important governor race going on this cycle!

I mean... if he doesn't make it obvious yeah I wouldn't be able to see it. It's called being near-sighted. Especially bad in dim or artificial light, which would be the case during sex.
@mrs_socialista
Also, endorsing Biden, while sick, is like necessary? Do you believe Trump will somehow be better on the genocide being comitted by his friend Netanyahu? And don't kid yourself into thinking Phillips, Williamson, Kennedy, or West have a genuine shot either
@carbdiem
A lot of the people "supporting" the Houthis right now are the same people who confuse being pro-Palestine with being pro-Hamas. They don't care that it's a terrorist organization, it's based anti-Western action so it's good in their eyes

significantly. obama was charismatic, and there were *times* where he had a nice sense of self-aware comedy, but it's the exception, not the rule.

It looks like the magazine was either ejected accidentally or early, the guy didn't realize there was still one bullet left in the chamber, and he didn't remove his finger from the trigger so he accidentally pulled it, firing the bullet. Which can be extremely dangerous.
@themarziestmar
I do agree that violent resistance in general is absolutely a necessity at this point; but, like, Hamas *does* kill innocents. They also very much opress Palestinians in the West Bank. Once the conflict is over, Hamas cannot be a part of what comes next.
@kizviv
@kianamaiart
Good explanation overall, though I would oppose framing Hamas as simply a resistance movement - it *is* a terrorist organization, but it committing a terrorist attack is still no justification for the even bigger terrorist campaign Israel has been conducting.
@2D0XPS
That's just the same date but with a 1 stapled to the front of it though. Like if your issue is that changing from BC/AD to BCE/CE is Christocentric, taking that exact same date and arbitrarily going 10,000 years back doesn't change the relationship at all. BCE and CE are fine.

Looking at your source... I can guarantee you that you are not doing oppression by using ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Nopne uses that language anymore!!!

Amazing! Mind if I take this without crediting you and pretend it's my own before shamefully deleting it later when someone starts poking around?
@ASPertierra
It's weird how tough it is for fellow leftists to understand that, while Cuba was certainly one of the better Marxist projects that came out of the cold war, it still has plenty of ways in which it can be improved

The MC honestly gives me more NB vibes than anything based on the actions they take and how they communicate their gender, but it's kinda ambiguous.

@Hezbolsonaro
I like to think I have a fairly consistent position in favour of human rights and dignity - Palestinians deserve not to be murdered by Israelis, and Qatari Slaves deserve to be free.

Only "google" is explicitly in the post, and... tumblr? The tumblr that infamously banned nsfw and was mocked viciously for it for years? Be serious, most websites have NSFW filters nowadays, it's just puritanism.

Japan is actually pretty heavily in favour of gay marriage, it's mostly corporate culture and the conservative government (that basically rules as a one party state but we'll put that aside) that oppose it.

From my perspective, while she was a terrible candidate on her own merits, she is still infinitely better than Trump and marginally better than Biden (who is old and i also hate) so I am all on board
