I met a guy who claimed he did more for Black folk than BLM because, over the years, he had approved raises for multiple Black employees at the warehouse he managed.

Well if he is talking about the official registered BLM nonprofit as opposed to the actual movement…

The left claims to be inclusive and yet it’s Lockheed out in the trenches building the disability coalition.

I can’t speak for other people, but I THINK most of my trans comrades would say “killing kids in the middle east so I can have a job isn’t a real solution to transphobia”

There unfortunately is a very real contingent of trans imperialists and compradors. Trans-ness does not have some inherent quality that makes the person have good takes, just like there are plenty of reactionary and liberal gays

Learning that being an oppressed minority doesn’t confer any intersectional regard for the oppression of others was a really hard lesson for me.

I can’t take this discourse anymore it’s a

FUCKING

MURDER CORPORATION

remove all worms from your brain, log off, consider the audacity of defending your job sending missiles to kill and maim people as ANTI-ABLEISM WTF

Liberals, liberals, liberals. Employment as liberation. A slaveowner could hire a house servant with a wage and these people would defend it as anti-racism.

Yes, but it is a murder corporation that will give you an HMO plan with a $3000k deductible and 20% copays and match $1 for every $3 you put into a health savings account, which is more than any leftist has ever done for anyone ever.

Without Lockhead Martin, tens of thousands of Americans would be unable to pay off their five figure student debts or afford their Tesla car note premiums. They couldn’t own ranch style property on the California coastline or stimulate the food service economy, where marginalized POC subsist almost entirely on gratuity.

How much of the Nevada desert would go underdeveloped without Lockhead weapons testing sites? How much of the Arizona real estate would be rural and agricultural, rather than built up into a thriving suburban metroplex?

Lockhead is critical to the American way of life. If you hate Lockhead, you might as well say you hate America.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
