Nice piece of fish posted:What even is marxism really? I mean what does the right wing idiot comic man mean when AOC demands marxism now? She demands a paradigmal shift in the analysis of economic and social theory from the materialist perspective of primarily german egalitarian philosophy? They don't even know any more because they call literally everything marxism and that's also why marxism can't be used to scare young people

eke out posted:only reason the bill was put forward was to give red state democrats two bad options with their own party to say "Don't come out and vote for her, she [supports/won't vote against] ICE" and one even worse option with their states' conservative majority, "She supports abolishing ICE!!" No, red state dems had one option: don’t pay lip service to fascism. Don’t normalize fascism. This is pretty easy poo poo if you’re a democrat. We’re not supposed to support racism, sexism, and most of all fascism. Why should there be room for people in the party who look at children being separated (permanently in many cases) from their parents and sign a bill in support of that poo poo?

Now you say I should’ve been advocating against people voting for racist dems like manchin or sinema Which is it? Prevent them from getting into office, or help them get into office and pressure them to not be poo poo? Cause right now you’re arguing against the latter and before you were arguing against the former

Captain Invictus posted:So the donald is just openly calling to arms now, seemingly en masse, I know reddit doesn't want to shut it down because TD denizens are truly the craziest of the crazy and they're scared reddit hq will get shot up or whatever, but at what point will they actually be forced to shut it down? An interesting question, given what’s happening with Gab. The cynic in me assumes it’ll only happen after they plan a murder openly. WaPo posted:Court papers assert that after his brother’s death, Jeffrey Clark posted on Gab a photo of the brothers wearing masks and holding a shotgun and a rifle, in front of a flag with a skull and cross bones. The documents said Jeffrey Clark posted a description of himself as a “Meth-Smoking, Pipe bomb making, mailman-murding . . . Che Guevara of the altright.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/loca...c180_story.html The problem with it being a honeypot is assuming the federal government wants to look for non-brown terrorists, having cut that part of their operations early on in this administration. quote:A D.C. man who described himself as a white nationalist to law enforcement officers and became a social-media follower of the suspect in the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting has been arrested on a gun charge after his worried relatives contacted the authorities, according to federal court filings

If Nazis were to come in vogue in Georgia, the current argument is we shouldn't fault someone with a D next to their name if they vote for a measure to kill the Jews because the other option was to not kill them and they might lose the election
