Ableism too, amazing. Mask-off.

Incredible homophobia from you. Counteract my points with your own, not mask-off homophobia. Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

More evidence of the DotP in place, as this isn’t an isolated incident.

Russia has been gradually taking more and more land and strategic footholds. This war is incredibly brutal, and the massive rise in FPV drones that are cheap and deadly forces slow movements, almost like a return to World War I style trench warfare. The Russian economy is still holding on strong, Europe is importing tons of gas indirectly from Russia through alternate channels, and Russia has spent the last decade trying to rely less on unreliable western trade partners. Further, there’s no real evidence of Russia putting Trump in the White House, nor would Ukraine suddenly be winning had Harris been in office.

The failure of MAS to consolidate, and instead to destroy itself over splitting, will end up disastrous for the Bolivian people. Every socialist party must view them as an example of how not to handle succession.

Because Russia is winning and has no reason to stop. Whether or not anyone is “okay” with Russia winning makes no difference on what the logical conclusion is, which is eventual Russian victory, as Russia is winning and Ukraine is losing even with NATO support. Russia stopping while they are ahead and the war is coming to a close is the least logical conclusion.

No? Why would Russia stop when it’s winning?

Russia is currently beating Ukraine + NATO support, I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here.

This seems more based on capitalist-realism than on practical analysis. The US Empire is on its way out, and with it will go Israel.

Israel isn’t going to last forever, the illusion of its indestructability has been destroyed and the resistance’s bravery and courage in resisting the entity are known around the world. Palestinians will not cease until Palestine is free, and Israel is going to crumble as more settlers flee and investments dry up.

If you mean the Statesian, pro-capitalist kind, it’s mostly a silly ideology pushed by small business owners and other highly individualist classes that are nonetheless pushed towards the working classes by competing against ever-growing monopolies.

The left wing version, I disagree with as you can’t dismantle the state without removing the basis of the state, class, and you can’t remove class without collectivizing production and distribution. Small, local cells loosely organized in a decentralist fashion would still result in class struggle and thus a form of state to hold one class over the others. That said, the leftists are valuable allies at times despite disagreements.

I happened to connect with an amazing person, and I love being married to them. I would have been fine had I been single, or dated casually for the rest of my life, but nevertheless the person I met has changed both me and my life completely.

The world doesn’t fear Russia, though, the world fears the west. It’s the west that fears Russia, and is harvesting Ukraine for resources and racking them up with debt for hand-me-down surplus to support the far-right Banderites in Kiev ethnic cleansing the Donbass region. The Ukrainian people increasingly want peace over war, not to fight to the last Ukrainian, it’s the Banderites that want to sacrifice Ukrainain people while they hide from the frontlines.

Try shopping around for different instances, the one you’re on can actually see a huge number of communities that accounts on Lemmy.world can’t see, as an example. One of the better ways to use Lemmy is to either scroll an instance you vibe with locally, or by using a broad account and browsing by subscribed communities.

Have a great day to you too!

Nah, I just checked your modlog when you said people can get banned “for disagreeing with North Korea.” You can do it for anyone, on the default web viewer just click the 3 dots then “XYZ Moderation History.” No stalking necessary.

I do argue about politics, sure. I don’t stalk people to do it, though. I do touch grass, and my spouse and I hug plenty, thanks for worrying though. Not a CPC agent either, though that would be cool.

I am a Statesian, and they certainly didn’t teach me how to think critically about the system I live in nor how it lies about its geopolitical enemies. That’s something that came with living and working in a brutal system gradually. I sincerely doubt you were taught by the system you live in to be genuinely critical of the system you live in, Statesian or not.

Also, don’t call me babe.

Complaining about “violent antifa psychos” isn’t really constructive discussion, it’s just open admission to being against antifascism.

Leftists don’t really have “rigid” worldviews, but consistent ones. It takes a great deal of confronting the status quo ideologically, as well as study, in order to definitively say that capitalism has to go. Liberals tend to just be born into their liberalism, and thus often hold extremely contradictory or irrational views.

You called countries like China “shitholes,” and were taking issue with the fact that the US Empire has been a constant source of pain and misery for the entire planet, yet the DPRK is labeled as a “terrorizing rogue state.” It isn’t because you don’t agree with the DPRK, it’s because you were being chauvanist and minimizing the fact that the DPRK is a very peaceful country internationally (since the Korean War) while the US Empire has been committing vast amounts of genocide and imperialism the world over.

Not all disagreements are “purity testing.”

All communists are at first socialists, communism is a post-socialist mode of production. Liberals on the other hand support capitalism, and do unfortunately outnumber the socialists/communists. It isn’t about “purity tests,” there are fundamental disagreements among people that cannot be reconciled.
