It's alright, no one goes to Launceston unless they absolutely have to

Liberals are still absolutely convinced that the current state of the US is a fluke or an outlier. This flavour of fascism is intrinsic to American society, and is a diluted shade of the butchery you have been exporting for a hundred years or more. This is a broadening of targets, not a new attack.

I think if you know details about the in-series Pope, it's more accurate to say your hobby is Mass Effect, rather than RPG gaming more broadly.

Allegiance to either Israel or the US might have different internal motivations, but externally there is no difference. You might as well ask if someone supports the bullet or the gun: two parts equally integral to a system of murder.

Rachel Reeves has received £37,710 "donations" from pro-Israel lobbyists btw.

47% believe "the Israeli army should act in accordance with the biblical story of the Israelites and their eradication of all of Jericho’s inhabitants during the conquest of the city". Only 3% of Jewish Israelis surveyed responded that ethnic cleansing is immoral.

Bibi isn't an outlier or some x factor influencing Israeli policy, though, he is a blistering pustule symptomatic of the fascistic rot that is core to their society. 82% of Israelis support the forced expulsion of all Palestinians from Gaza, and 56% support the same for Arab citizens of Israel.

Then does it not follow that abolishing the system of inherited wealth and dictatorial corporate hierarchy, and replacing it with a system in which workplace leaders are democratically elected and are beholden to a mandate derived from the workers would produce similarly better outcomes?
comment in response to post
Do you agree that democracy produces a better calibre of leader than does monarchism or some other inherited authority?
comment in response to post
And who set that system up? What class of people are the main beneficiaries? Moreover, will you deny that most countries in the Global North also experience significant worker exploitation from within their own county?

The Nordic social democracies conceded more strongly to socialist demands than other capitalist states bc of their particular position wrt the USSR and the Western empires. In our period of global reaction and revolutionary retreat, these concessions are being dismantled piecemeal year after yearm

1. Most of the countries in the Global South. 2. All of the commodity abundance of Norway and the other Nordics are derived from the same neocolonial extractivism as any privileged capitalist state. Their coffee, chocolate, minerals etc. all come from the Global South.

Nestlé in particular are connected to the assassination of a trade union leader who was involved in a strike of workers in Colombia. Coca Cola are pretty infamous for funding death squads. Euro-American food abundance has always grown from the barrel of a gun, but now they've privatised it.
comment in response to post
Any corp of a size such that it could reasonably be described as an 'empire' has almost certainly dabbled in paramilitarism. If they're involved in commodity/resource extraction in LATAM or Africa they probably have a permanent mercenary reserve and contracted hitmen.

It's not whataboutism to point out the vast and constant robbery and pillage of global south countries by global north ones when you are comparing the relative wealth of global south and global north countries.

20 million people starve to death in capitalist countries every year, now, in the 21st Century. If you want to go back to the 19th, 20th Centuries, the toll is even worse. It's interesting how nobody ever seems to include the vast colonial holdings of the capitalist empires in mortality statistics

Not so much an 'escalating argument' as his neighbour was a vicious fascist animal who burnt down his house, killed their dog and displayed its skull as a trophy, and finally lay in wait with a gun to murder him with full premeditation, while the cops ignored all of it.
comment in response to post
McSweeney and the entire core of the Labour bureaucracy need to be put against a wall. The state of the PLP should inform any socialist active in electoral politics that vicious persecution is the only appropriate response to rightist organising within a party.

OK for maybe 10 years I've been living under the false assumption that root beer was just the American name for ginger beer and I've just had that misconception violently corrected. What the hell is that? I am greatly relieved that 'root beer floats' aren't ice cream dumped in ginger beer tho.

And how many cis gays and 'allies' are class traitors and piece of shit quisling pigs in human skin.

The first time I had my own, not just getting a key or two from a friend, I was 19ish and definitely didn't know sensible amounts of k to be doing. I did a line in my room before heading out to get a taxi, then I woke up on a bus 2 miles away. Apparently I just took off running and hopped on lol.

The video game thing is very real as well, I've been piloting my body from 3rd person with HUD and everything

Ketamine is the stuff that's had me the most detached from reality, more than lsd, shrooms, dmt, etc. It's also the grossest I've felt while high, like I could feel plaque growing in my mouth and the skin of my fingers being stretched by my fingernails as they grew.

Rowling decided to make him not on Hitler's side at the very last minute and gave him the worst 'redemption' arc in the history of popular fiction. He's still a nazi incel bully, but everyone forgives him bc he has a psychosexual obsession with a dead woman that he projects onto her son.
comment in response to post
Tbf he absolutely was an incel villain and bullied children all the time, he just happened to turncoat on his nazi boss bc someone he liked was now a target. He just got the standard 'evil people are ugly/fat/disabled and have racialised features' treatment she gives all her antagonists.

Red Terror, struggle sessions, re-education camps. Liberals call them atrocities and authoritarianism, but force is the only language these people understand.

Like other fantasy monsters, Italians might seem cool on paper, but I reckon the novelty of dealing with them in day-to-day life would soon wear thin.

All round with a hole in the middle. All designed to prevent choking? Designed to go in mouths? Just asking questions.

Even when they acknowledge something as fundamental, necessary-for-life, they usually are completely fine with depriving outgroups of it.

"Some degree of cognitive impairment with increasing age was found in all studies, although the extent varied. The prevalence of cognitive impairment and the rate of decline increased with age. [...] Cognitive decline is almost universal in the general elderly population and increases with age."
comment in response to post
Citing one study is infinitely more evidence than citing nothing and just making a claim. This is a twitter clone with a character limit, not a literature review. As an aside, here's a systematic review of studies on age-related cognitive decline: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...
