Guess you’re one of today’s lucky 10000

That’s very abstract and doesn’t mean much. With as many words you can say capitalism is based on scientific reasoning.

Just to understand what you are saying, do you say communists apply scientific reasoning?

Here are some properties of any conspiracy theory worth it’s name:

• Closed Ideological Systems: They provide an all-encompassing explanation for various events or states, with everything fitting into their worldview.
• Immunity to Facts: Any contrary evidence is dismissed as false or considered part of the conspiracy.
• Enemy Construction: They tend to draw a clear line between “us” (those who “know the truth”) and “them” (the supposed conspirators).
• Adaptability: Conspiracy narratives can change and incorporate new “evidence” or events to maintain their credibility.

It matches for QAnon and the MAGA crowd as well as the lemmygrad crowd.

To the leftist who is stunned by this message:

Think of Jordan Peterson. There was a time where he was riled up against “ideologies who would kill people in the name of a higher good.” And he named examples, Stalin and Mao most prominently. For all the abstract criticisms of ideologies, he rarely distances himself from Fascism, named Hitler only very occasionally as an example.

Now he is forethinker for the Republican Fascist party which is now normalizing the exact dehumanizing language that the Nazis used to prepared and justify their concentration camps.

Antifascists caught his thought patterns early on and warned of him using fascist arguments much more sensitive than most people, the missing distancing from Hitler along his other prominent examples being one of them.

Now, dear leftists, the mirror of this arguments wants to ask you if you are really only motivated by reducing human suffering and wanting peace. And if so, you cannot ignore the role of Hamas in this longtime ongoing conflict nor in this war. If you skip that, if that’s not in your mirror, it’s big time necessary to go outside your bubble. Because then chances are you are a puppet playing the propaganda trumpet for the Hamas, or otherwise playing in their hands.

Tedious as it may be, missing distance to a terrorist group like that in a conflict like that is a big red flag.

And just as a tedious albeit necessary disclaimer, I believe Netanyahu and quite a bunch of other Israeli actors belong in a courtroom and then in jail for their atrocities, and certainly not in power.

If you checked out for mental reasons, do yourself a favor and keep checked out.

If you want to know news events look at a couple diverse news sites. They’ll do a much better job of informing you than social media.

But somehow this post has the vibes of purposefully starting this social media fight again. Too many things you know for someone checked out. Too naively suggesting “something to do with…” that’ll rile up people. I call bullshit. Go back to Reddit!

Cool. All the medical risks of alcohol for getting none of the things why I’d drink it. What a deal.

Redditors, mostly

Zionism became a thing when antisemitism was really bad.

Israel became a thing when antisemitism went over itself and even casual antisemites looked in horror at what Nazis had done.

The Palestinian problem today is nested within centuries of the problem of antisemitism, coiling around and biting itself in the tail.

Well, the overlap of anti lgbt folks and antisemites is not small.

Uh… What a long winded intro to a nsfw dad joke

Dude baristas do a very valuable job for society! Everyone enjoys a beautiful coffee. There’s no need for inner void.

I think the error is on your side. Nothing that OC said denies that some sex workers like and choose what they do. These exist.

But it’s doubtable that these are in majority, and nothing what you say acknowledges that many many sex workers don’t have much choice.

MacOS instead of some Linux distro. Mostly because of the hardware that comes with it, making a neat integrated product.

I created my first account there, which still exists. But on day 3 I created one at another instance, which I have used almost exclusively since.

I wonder how many of their users are actually active.

His trope and that of the people he finances is climate change denial and libertarianism. It doesn’t need to be in that video, but that’s the context he philosophizes in.

He’s pretending that this will just go smoothly with the help of the free market.

It’s focused on some ideal coastline that fits the argument well.

In reality you will see storms that set underwater whole metropoles repeatedly, think like New Orleans a few years back, but on a yearly base.

And when it comes to the really big metropoles in Asia, they don’t have much options to properly relocate millions of people at ones.

The likes of Shapiro won’t welcome them in the USA, even if they promise to stay in the rural centers.

Because his explanation is bullocks. The whole argument is.

Because diesel catching on fire is totally unheard of.
