There’s nothing more to say. It’s literally the r/neoliberal post from a week ago, with some more edition because lemmy libs apparently are dumber and can’t understand something unless it’s spelled to them.
All due respect to my fellow Americans, but I hope with all my heart that Amerikkka falls as low as Babylon.
There’s some good people in the streets, mainly from the black and immigrant community, but I suppose these people are not really considered “American” there…
Disco Elysium is so good that I even liked the “ultra-liberal” character. Only the fascists (minus René and Measurehead) and the Coalition guys are really impossible to like. But that’s because they were so well written.
Babylon stayed an important center of economy, culture and administration for centuries after its empire was gone. I only wish complete obliteration to the USA. May it split up and never reunite.
It was a major city for nearly 2000 years, and even its fall took 500 years after that.
This is amazing. The mental gymnastics necessary is mind boggling.
Let’s say Trump and Biden are equally terrible for Palestinians but Trump rolls out a plan to pull out of Ukraine. Using the logic above, shouldn’t all Dems vote for Trump since he’s quantifiably less terrible?
LOL. What fucking losers. It takes no effort to realize all sides are bad and we’re all fucked. Just own it. You can even still be a shitlib like my mom. Just realize it’s 100% bullshit.
You misunderstand where their heart is on Ukraine. They don’t want Ukrainians to live, they want Russians to die. Their problem with trump pulling out of Ukraine isn’t “more dead Ukrainians”, it’s “less dead Russians”. This is why when you suggest Ukraine should take a peace deal to stop the war as soon as possible, you get the whinging and handwringing.
Oh. I know their takes on Putin. But fewer dead people is fewer dead people. It’s their logic, not mine.
They’re literally just doing mental gymnastics to try to figure out how they can be actively supporting a genocide and still be the good guys. And the playboys getting pretty stale.
“Fuck Biden, he’s literally actively carrying out a genocide.”
“Yea well trump would bebworse, trust me.”
“Fuck Biden, deportations have gone up under him since Trump and he’s trying to eliminate the asylum program.”
“Yea but Trump would be worse, trust me.”
“Fuxk Biden, were drilling more oil than anybody at any point in history”
“Yea well Trump would be way worse”
This coming from the same people who have been wrong about fucking every important decision for the last 30 years, and also managed to lose elections to Bush and Trump.
I have been having this conversation all month (year, decade, century) and I am losing my goddamned mind.
Blow up the train you spineless cowards
It’s close enough to the tracks that it would hurt the hostages, and the wreckage would probably have enough momentum to hit them anyway.
This is a good analogy actually. Blowing up the train would feel good, but that isn’t going to stop the momentum, and it’s unfortunately virtually impossible to outright stop it’s momentum at this point. All that blowing up the train would accomplish is sending fiery wreckage towards the middle track.
This is why accelerationism is stupid.
Dot world delenda est
Blowing up the Genocide Machine is bad actually because of this scenario I imagined
I agree it has to go but we need to keep feeding souls into it and shut it down slowly (they will never shut it down and will forget this conversation happened as soon as it’s time to go to brunch)
