We gotta quarantine the British until we figure out what’s going on.

has bombing a populace from the outside ever spurred that populace to rise up against their own government or is that just a thing we pretend happens even though it never does

it's a retroactively justified excuse that looks good on paper to a populace that won't leave their homes if it's too chilly outside but somehow believe going outside into poisonous gas conjured by a country bombing a city to smithereens and indiscriminately killing civilians is viable

So if the white settlers where the majority would you accept Rhodesia’s apartheid as “self-determination”. They also segregated the Africans into Bantustans to strip them of citizenship and create a white “majority” in South Africa is that “self determination” too?

The Rhodesian nationality was invented to distinguish white settlers from the African natives and justify segregation. National identities do not get preference over human rights.

@shuchancellor.bsky.social @impemboganecue.bsky.social A take to end all takes.

States aren’t people and do not have rights. You obviously don’t care about the consent of the millions of Africans oppressed by Rhodesia and the other colonial governments.

You don’t get to make an apartheid state and then whine about consent when your state is violently deposed actually.

Rhodesia ceased to exist because it was forced to disband after decades of military resistance by the African peoples it oppressed you idiot. I am terrified of what you think “consent” is.

It’s great Rhodesia no longer exists and if you disagree do the funniest thing to yourself.

You’re an idiot who thinks there’s a meaningful moral distinction between blatant genocide and tactful genocide.

She did agree with Cheney on Gaza and “most lethal military in the world” you delusional idiot. You don’t back a genocide and accept an endorsement from one of the most famous American war criminals of the 21st century.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

I think neoliberalism is just the inevitable end result of liberalism(both classical and social) played out because the power dynamics of capitalism lead to the oligarchs dominating the regulatory state and eventually dismantling it.

I always knew Gork and Mork was secret yuri.

Eh I think smith is a rare outlier in that he was actually critical of capital and genuinely intellectually curious. I’d consider him a proto social liberal rather than a classical liberal.

“Nothing ever happens” is correct in that nothing happening right now is actually new and we’re basically reenacting the Gilded age but with a lot more gambling I guess.

Honestly very weird we call it neoliberalism when it is quite literally the original default liberalism just reasserting itself after the collapse of the new deal and civil rights reforms. @shuchancellor.bsky.social

Listen you’re either for a society with economic classes or you’re for a society without economic classes. I just support the lesser evil. You get that right?

Wait Neoliberalism is just Liberalism?

Yesterday, Trump stood in front of the world and said the "next one is gonna be Cuba".

He is intentionally starving the people of Cuba, cutting off their revenue, and plunging the country into darkness.

Cuba tried to negotiate too, just like Iran, but as we all know, this means nothing to the US.

He never needed to do it for the money his brother in law and former best friend both offered to completely cover his expenses but that would insult his pride. It was always about his pride and toxic masculinity ruining him.

Your inability to engage with reality as it happens is simply not my problem.
