How’d genocidal fascists end up in my anti-tankie meme?!?! It’s so completely irrelevant that I must terminate all thought of this kind immediately.

During the Syrian civil war, a Chinese hostage was murdered by the Islamic State, which claimed its desire to fight against China over Xinjiang.[319] These militants are also very active in Syria, mostly Idlib, where it formed to be one of the most radical fighting groups in the conflict, which prompted China to take cautious reactions.[320][321]

A number of Uyghur militants have been recruited by ISIS[322][323] and have had a presence in Southeast Asia, with some joining Mujahidin Indonesia Timor.[324]

Some nice context for the confused here.

we are in the right in both instances

playing both sides isn’t being right tho

effective anti-terrorism campaigns of vocational training, deradicalization, and investment in Infrastructure alongside special status for the culture under the law

Passive Voicing a bombing campaign that dropped the equivalent explosive power of multiple nuclear bombs on a small strip of land are we?

Harm reduction is supporting the political party that supports genocide and their candidate that proudly proclaimed “As Commander-in-Chief, I will ensure America always has the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world.” at the party’s nomination ceremony. I am a very serious political analyst.

The Dems can never fail in the fight against fascism, because they are aligned with the process all on their own.

If you stay out of a Nazi death camp long enough to learn the difference between dogshit centrist neolibs and literal fucking fascists

Enjoy your mind palace where “No one has ever died in a camp because of dogshit centrist neolibs”. Millions of people across the global south are silent in their deaths because of the purposeful collaboration of neolibs and fascists, but you have no willingness to comprehend this reality.

I hate that evil Emperor Palpatine. That’s why I support Dedra Meero for Emperor. She’s a real firecracker that believes in the righteousness of the Empire to maintain order.

Otherwise what would be the point if everyone thinks it is useless?

Capitalism trying to convince people it is still relevant and viable.

These examples illustrate the disjuncture between GDP and societal well-being and the many ways that GDP fails to be a good measure of economic performance. The growth in GDP before 2008 was not sustainable, and it was not sustained. The increase in bank profits that seemed to fuel GDP in the years before the crisis was not only at the expense of the well-being of the many people whom the financial sector exploited but also at the expense of GDP in later years. The increase in inequality was by any measure hurting our society, but GDP was celebrating the banks’ successes. If there ever was an event that drove home the need for new ways of measuring economic performance and societal progress, the 2008 crisis was it.

have you tried car pooling or transit?

no the bikes are the problem!!!

Quite the opposite in fact, they were directly inspired by previous settler-colonialism and successful genocide.

Writing in “Mein Kampf” in the 1920s, Hitler praised the way the “Aryan” America conquered “its own continent” by clearing the “soil” of “natives” to make room for more “racially pure” settlers and lay the foundation for its economic self-sufficiency and growing global power. Indeed, the concept of Lebensraum was coined and popularized by Friedrich Razel, who said his theory of colonization and racial replacement drew inspiration from the American historian Frederick Jackson Turner’s “frontier thesis” and its identification of “colonization of the Great West” as central to American history and identity.

Picked up this phrase from a random comment a few years ago:

philosophically I’m an anarchist, so pragmatically I’m a communist and currently I’m a socialist

Think of the grifting opportunities! I hope someone does something funny.

Oh please don’t throw me in the briar patch!

this is ostrich riding erasure

The Christian Right that faithfully facilitates Israel’s decades of war crimes surely has no problem with gay people.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stateless_society

In stateless societies, there is little concentration of authority. Most positions of authority that do exist are very limited in power, and they are generally not permanent positions, and social bodies that resolve disputes through predefined rules tend to be small.

Over the course of history most stateless peoples have become integrated into external state-based societies.

Some political philosophies, particularly anarchism, regard the state as an unwelcome institution and stateless societies as the ideal, while Marxism considers that in a post-capitalist society, the state would become unnecessary and would wither away.

This is the goal. As the means of production are socialized (owned by everyone), the concentrations of wealth, influence, power and authority would be eroded down. It is continually iterative process with democratic and participatory inputs.
