Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Palestine@lemmygrad.ml•BBC staffers reveal editor's 'entire job' to whitewash Israeli war crimes17·9 months agoIt’s so clear when reading BBC that it’s almost comedic.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•I tried to build a PC for the first time and I fucked up everything10·9 months agoI used to tell people that building a PC is easy after I built my first.
Since then I’ve built a few more and helped friends with a bunch and now I don’t tell people that.
With no experience it’s confusing and intimidating. There are enough moving parts that a problem/mistake can be very hard to diagnose.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mltoShit Reactionaries Say@lemmygrad.ml•Imperialist Trump: "We should maybe...'softly' invade Mexico."53·9 months agoSoft invasion, haha.
Nice invasion. Comfy invasion. Helpful invasion. Heartwarming invasion. Inclusive invasion.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mltoShit Reactionaries Say@lemmygrad.ml•Imperialist Trump: "We should maybe...'softly' invade Mexico."35·9 months agoIf I remember right that’s part of how the US ended up annexing part of Mexico originally.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•Chris Smalls, Amazon Union organizer, appears to want to launch an American Labor Party4·9 months agoI’m optimistic about this.
If it’s quite successful then perhaps the entrenched propaganda is too great for a communist party to do similar. It could lead to a lot of people getting educated about class.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mltoShit Reactionaries Say@lemmygrad.ml•I'd like to see this guy kindly explain this to Grizzly or Orca61·9 months agoOh yes. It’s wild stuff. It’s a wacky offshoot of more legit vegan and leftist ideas.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mltoShit Reactionaries Say@lemmygrad.ml•I'd like to see this guy kindly explain this to Grizzly or Orca11·9 months agoWhen I see takes like that I assume it’s a child/fed/troll. Their bizarre nature gets them visibility amongst libs who get to pad their beliefs with the knowledge that other ideologies are irrational.
That said, stuff taught me a lot about the left way back when I was a lib. Did the research and discovered the rationale behind ideas that were being mocked.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto GenZedong@lemmygrad.ml•HTS officials order Palestinian resistance factions to disarm, close bases in Syria: Report11·9 months agoWell there goes me trying not to be pessimistic about the new government.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto GenZedong@lemmygrad.ml•Understanding the Rebellion in Syria10·10 months agoTbf they didn’t say a better Syria would be fought for, just that there was room to.
The typical leftist of this variety expects perfection (despite doing nothing to build socialism.) Any benefit Assad brought to Syria is irrelevant. The damage caused is irrelevant. They are just glad there is a chance for the perfect revolution to come about.
These are the sorts that celebrated the fall of the Soviet Union because it made room for something “better”.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•Today my pharmacist let me know I'm a drain on NHS resources.14·10 months agoPeople want you here. Even most of these shitheads you’ve had to deal with I’d bet. As individuals they don’t see how they can make positive change.
I’ve been working in food service. When the opportunity has arisen I’ve been able to give food to people who have no means to pay. If I had a family or valued my own wellbeing a little more I wouldn’t do this because I am certain it threatens my employment. We’ve got a system that puppets good people into being monsters and I hate it.
So again, people want you here and I hope I made a coherent point.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mltoShit Reactionaries Say@lemmygrad.ml•How do you feel about the SRS community at this point in time?10·10 months agoI’d like to hear your reasoning.
Nah. That cat is taking part in direct action. The pigs can’t touch the guy now that the cat is comfortable.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Palestine@lemmygrad.ml•Joe Biden reads Rashid Khalidi, and so should American Jews4·10 months agoThe man likely knows more of the contents of that book than the vast majority of the folks on here. He’s been tangled up in US foreign for centuries (probably).
His genocide is well informed.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto World News@lemmygrad.ml•The North Korea soldier deployment propaganda's Iraq WMD levels17·10 months agoYou see, it’s both. The Russian meat wave tactics are only mastered after years of training. They use the tactics not because their soldiers are undisciplined or under equipped, but because Putin wants to see his people suffer.
The North Korean soldiers have been unable to complete the meat wave training due to being malnourished and porn addicted.
I hope these news outlets pay well. I think I’ve got a shot once they read this BS.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Palestine@lemmygrad.ml•Hamas Faces a Future Without Its Most Important Ally4·10 months agoI expect the conversation has stalled because it’s muddy as to what the stance of Hezbollah is seeing as they weren’t a direct part of the ceasefire agreement.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mlto Quotes@lemmygrad.ml•Fascism was created with the purpose of destroying communists - Fidel CastroEnglish8·10 months agoIf fascism is capitalism in crisis then communism is the crisis it was responding to the first time. Organized workers fundamentally threatened capitalism.
I don’t agree that it is fighting communism this time. More likely it’s reaching the limits of the infinite growth that it requires. Local markets are becoming increasingly anemic and distant ones are either already exploited or are pushing back against foreign capital.
Capitalism threatens itself and fascism is it’s last gasp.
Soul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mltoShit Reactionaries Say@lemmygrad.ml•Washington Post: "But the ICC was only supposed to go after Russians and non-white people!"15·10 months agoIt’s awful.
The author seems to lack any critical thinking skills or relevant historical knowledge and simply possesses a starry eyed trust in institutions (except the ICC apparently).
Either that or they are knowingly peddling bullshit.
People like that need to exist so that it’s clear how tight those boundaries are.
Not that it’s a reason to like him.
What would DPRK even gain from assassinating a SK politician? Am I missing something about geopolitics or is the bar for a false flag that low?
