First everyone should be reading these works critically and not as absolute doctrine. Any ML who's actually knows what "scientific socialism" means and isnt a tankie larper should know that.

Second, all except for the Catalonia examples are false.

  • EZLN is literally a Maoist people's army started by a Maoist cadre. The people they organized simply didn't see overthrowing the entire Mexican government as worth it. If you knew anything about Mao you would've known that.
  • Lenin and Mao were required readings for for the YPG according to western volunteers. Just look into Occalan their connection with the PKK and understand they were just softening their image to get US support.
  • "original workers councils in Russia" AKA the Soviets. Yeah they didn't read Mao or State and Revolution because they hadn't been written yet! But to suggest they weren't reading early Lenin is obvious baloney given that him and the Bolsheviks were their contemporaries.

I'm mostly just lost at the concept of "provided Dotfiles".

Also "No paid features," but somehow premium customization options.

To some extent I think the demands for "talks" are out of genuine fear of escalating the war. The UK is being dragged by the US which is being dragged by Israel who is the only one who actually wants this war. Its this weird centipede of colonies controlling their homelands.

Sorry for the confusion when I said "no proof". I meant "no official sources". Everyone knows Israel has nukes they just have to pretend they aren't for the legal reasons I stated.

[-] sudo@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

It'd be absolutely justified since the US is in full coordination with Israel. Not sure its wise though.

The problem is that there are plenty of voters who hate the pony!

Yeah those are the centrist republicans who voted Trump anyways. Again, empirically proven failure.

When the Dems put Harris in, it was a concession to the progressives. They got a Black woman from a state with a long Left tradition.

Honestly wtf are you thinking here? She wasn't left wing at all and being black or californian doesn't magically make her progressive. You're literally citing a fake sterotype as a subsititue for real policy.

Obama had a super majority in both Houses and the ACA barely squeaked through.

HE GOT THAT SUPERMAJORITY BY RUNNING ON HEALTH CARE REFORM!

We got a supermajority by promising the pony! "Hope and Change". Sell the fucking pony again. Promise a different pony when you fail to deliver! Jesus Christ you just insist on keeping your head in the sand. You're just insistent on laying down and dying.

Electoral reform isn't something to base your campaign on but it is something that every upstart campaign will strategically want to do.

Buddy the CSA wasn't bad because they fired on Fort Sumner. They were bad because they were slavers. If the Union shot first they'd still be in the right. Grow a moral backbone. Ansarallah did not starve Yemen. The Saudis and the Americans did.

The KSA is to blame because they bombed civilian infrastructure and Yemeni water supply. Thats what im accusing them of and thats what they chose to do. Ansarallah firing the first shots doesn't justify every war crime the Saudis do. Thats genocidal Zionist logic.

[-] sudo@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

We armed the Saudis and provided targeting for them to destroy Yemeni water supplies and other civilian infrastructure. We then also blockaded and starved the people of Yemen which led to +300k dead.

I also don't trust the accusation that the Ansarallah deliberately starved their own people when it comes from the nation causing the food shortage in the first place. Its far more likely that they seized aide to distribute themselves to maintain loyalty. Not a moral practice but I've only ever said that we are worse.

Kill the jingoist in your head.
