Watching Hasan watch an "Econ" Tik Tok lady who doesn't know the difference between inflation RATES and inflated PRICES

And Hasan nor his chat caught the obvious ass error .......the state of econ education in this country lmao

“When Obama was elected, that was a very important victory,” Davis said when asked about the advance of Black political figures in the U.S. “It was not a victory in relation to what he actually accomplished during his presidency,

So it was categorically NOT a victory in any way, shape or form, admitting your point is fallacious doesn't magically transform the point into something incisive

but rather what was significant was that young people organized and accomplished something that was considered to be impossible.

lmao this is just pure ignorance or willful blindless, Obama literally dismantled the organizing apparatus of the democratic party after his victory in 2008, grassroot operations were shuttered and entire swing state organizing bodies disappeared overnight

It was one of the main reasons the dems suffered so many mid term and state loses during Obama's tenure, and part of the reason they lost 2016

it’s about opening space for those of us who are more radical than Kamala Harris to put the pressure for change, especially in the first place when it comes to the genocide in Palestine.”

Biden 2020 ass dialogue re-use, get new lines shitlibs

There is no socialist party anywhere in Europe, just confused Keynesians daydreaming about MMT

Assuming the report about 2 Hezbollah members almost revealing the deception is true; then this can't be seen as anything other than a serious strategic defeat for Isreal and a commercial disaster for western electronics, despite it also being a tactical and propaganda victory for Israel

Apparently this was supposed to be some kind of trump card deployed in the early hours of an invasion to sow chaos and knockout communications behind the lines

Now that card is used up and every single org (even those allied with Israel) are gonna be checking their inventories for these boobie-traps, in the end the resistance security apparatus has been made stronger and Israel has lost one more tool in their arsenal and a pretty substantial one at that

wtf are Chinese libs on?

It's always a wonder watching the random ass places non-white inferiority complex rears its ugly racist head

Pension policy of all places??? Are you fuckin kidding me?

You'd still be an outlier in that case, not representative of some positive general trend when it comes to a shithole like .world

There's been comrades who've found us thru 4chan, doesn't mean we should engage with 4chan

The problem is that most people on Hexbear dot net think they're too good for Tiktok lol

And I'll admit I used to be one of those people, until I gave it a shot and came across TikToks with 1 million plus likes with tens of thousands of comments about anti-imperialism, anti-capitalism, anti-racism....it was like finding the internet of a parallel universe where western leftism was actually a thing, I couldn't believe it

Then the state decided to ban it and that was all the confirmation I needed, it's the real deal and our asses have been way too slow to recognize the potential it offers

We didn't so much as glance at the cowards before they buckled

Agitating on lemmy is a waste of time, these are not normal people, these are Redditors who took redditing so seriously they decided to go make an even worse version of reddit

They're reactionaries and bigots the whole lot of them, if there's any place on the internet we should be agitating on it's Tik Tok before it gets banned, tens of millions of people regularly liking leftist Tik Tok content that wouldn't be out of place here on Hexbear, and we're still obsessed with a couple hundred dipshit Redditors who regularly upvote pro-genocide and pro-neonazi content every single day

For over a year now I've maintained that outreach, agitating, federating, and in general educating has always been a lauded goal, but the problem is the quality of the people we're interacting with and the people on lemmy are barely worth a dunk thread let alone serious outreach

From my perspective it's like if someone kept pressing us to agitate on 4chan or some shit, it's such a profound waste of time and energy

That famous "communist" Hindenburg.......

Also for the sake of argument and ignoring their rancid revisionism; for their bullshit analogy to work the Democrats would have to be the party NOT actively engaging in a genocide

So are they saying we SHOULD vote for Republicans??? These people are neo-nazis and nothing they say should be taken seriously, they are ecstatic the dems are helping commit one of the greatest crimes of the 21st century because they think that signals a sea change for normalizing soft fascism, a comfortable, respectable collage educated, trust fund version of fascism that will keep the treats flowing and the minorities contained without all the crassness of the Trumpers

These people think it's funny to play around with genocide and neo-nazism because their daddy's home value reads 1 million+

but at least they win and are executing on a plan to gain power

Yeah, gaining power in service of genocide and the persecution of immigrants

But I don't really see any material reason to donate or promote the Greens.

Anything that reduces the power and vote share of the two parties is a material benefit for the working class, even a shitty green party getting a slightly larger share of the vote falls squarely under the harm reduction rubric left libs love to chirp about

Death by a thousand cuts is the best the western left can hope for, and every cut counts

Having people work for longer would ease pressure on pension budgets with many Chinese provinces already reeling from large deficits

The delusional liberal fear of deficits raises it ugly head again, showing just how riven with liberals China really is, those pensions are owed to the workers at state demand, there shouldn't be any "budget" issues unless the state itself is fuckin around and handing that money to speculating capitalists, and without solving that underlying issue delaying the payouts will have no effect on the so-called "problem", even from their liberal epistemology it's just kicking the can down the road

This is total bullshit and a coup for Chinese libs

Really shows how in just thirty years the US has regressed culturally 75 years

So you're saying we should invade Iraq a third time?

My only memory is of me watching my mom watching it on TV with a concerned expression on her face, when I turn to watch the TV I got scared because I thought it was some kind of smoke monster swallowing the people running

Of course they'd never in a million years scream NUANCEEEEE when it comes to China or the Soviet Union, then suddenly they turn into arbiters of western moral perfection

Clowns to the end

I'm at work so how's the debate going?

Which ethnic groups have both of them scapegoated so far?

It's hilarious how liberals have just embraced the most deranged form of moral relativism, except the relativism is centered entirely on whatever hypothetical "worseness" you can claim the GOP will manifest in the unknowable future

As long as the hypothetical GOP is "worse" than you, then everything goes, even genocide

Trots tend towards western chauvinism because they believe socialism can only emerge at the most developed nexuses of capitalism, i.e. Europe and North America

This leads straight to a horrifically mistaken belief that if these "developed nexuses" spread their control over the whole globe then socialism will emerge globally too....somehow

This leaves them wide open to white supremacist narratives and co-option by every elite western institution in existence

How funny would it be if this somehow turns into another June 27th debate

Emergent phenomenon, chaos theory, feedback loops, interconnected dynamic systems interacting

An old word to describe a myriad of things that deal with emergence and Phase transition

Bro you're the one who believes there's some secret mass conversion to Christianity in Iran, like who the fuck are you calling "tool" while believing that deranged nonsense

Do you even hear yourself, lmao?

I certainly don’t see it out of the realm of possibility that there are lots of converts although Christianity

I certainly don't see it out of the realm of possibility that everyone in Japan converts to Mormonism, it's still a ludicrous deranged claim to advance let alone take seriously

The evil eldritch ritual of......"opposing genocide".....my god these people must be stopped, next thing you know they'll summon the Outer God of "Anti-racism"

lmao holy shit they're so pressed about us

Dipshit crybaby Redditors cannot take the slightest bit of push back on anything

Some disgusting late 2000s "rowdy comedy" that started with a scene of a girl giving the main character a blowjob in a school bathroom, except the scene started with a close up of the girl's mouth which had a big-ass pimple on it

I so fuckin furious I snapped the disc in half and delivered it back to the redbox like that, never had a film piss me off to that degree

Sisko was justified in his poisoning of the Maquis colony, Eddington was playing a dangerous game with his cavalier use of bioweapons, Sisko got into his head and shut that shit down quick before the precedent could be set and the brinkmanship escalated into an annihilatory interstellar war with WMDs

that a color revolution might lead to Bangladesh esque islamists taking over?

That's pretty much an impossibility, the Algerian military has not forgotten the 90s, and it is massive with deeper political penetration then even the military of Iran

The smartest lib I've ever encountered basically copy-pasted the technical definition of production functions and tried to use it as a bludgeon in defense of marginalism, that's it, I've literally never encountered any lib here or on the old sub who ever approached that level of misguided articulation

It's genuinely hilarious how badly miseducated libs on lemmy are, I've yet to see a single one give a convincing definition of the main terms we use, let alone back up their supposedly grounded opposition to our ideologies, they can't even define their own ideology

Oddly enough people with “Marx” in their usernames tend to be this sort of chauvinist social-democrat tendency

I hear ya, I can't stand those ultra losers

Oh No! Lying to the pigs to protect yourself, what an unforgivable moral sin!

people give fake names upon arrest is that they know they are wanted for more serious crimes

This dipshit is either a trust-fund brat who's never had to struggle in life or a troll, yeah dude she's a criminal mastermind trying to evade the feds, fuck outta here

Because historically TV, beauty marketers and white supremacist culture in general imply those are the only kind of women worth pursuing

Incels are led around by their easily manipulated emotions and many of them are also racists, so most of them regardless of race develop a dehumanized hypersexual fixation on white women as status symbols

Liberals betraying every ideal they pretend to subscribe to for the sake of political convenience? Well I never.....

Maybe because it's not genuine AI

I love how all the corporate bootlickers for over three years now have just assumed some real breakthrough in emergent general intelligence took place and now humanity can build rudimentary consciousness

What world are these dipshits living in, it's just marketing for data aggregators not a replacement flesh and blood humans

So they've expanded the old talking point of "DON'T TALK ABOUT GUNS OR POLITICS!" to "DON'T EVEN TALK ABOUT STUDENT SAFETY!"

Bold move, let's see if it pays off

Someone needs to invent a new kind of guy who assumes everyone taller than him is on HGH

Primarch Barron over here

Heard some 40k Ork won Pennsylvania, big if true

Rediscovered an old take of mine from two years ago when Fetterman won his election, always trust your gut folks

The scale of the tragedy is incredible, straight up apocalyptic

Ironically I think it was AOC who came up with the simplest definition

"It's about picking the enemy you want to fight"
