This deserves its own post! I appreciate the insight and reading recommendations.
this shit is so pathetic
According to the article, other counties tried this already in 2020 and 2022 so I doubt anything comes of this. Pretty funny though
i can’t even tell who they want me to vote for
They did the same thing to a hacker in the 3DS scene years ago, I wouldn't be surprised if they followed the same plan even.
Prolewiki has an absolute beginner’s list that should be valuable to you. +1 to Blackshirts and Reds, personally I would read this before anything else. The State and Revolution is definitely a must read for all socialists, but I think I agree with the beginner list that it would be better as a followup once you’ve got a working understanding of marxism.
Great comment! You’re absolutely right, they aren’t brainwashed. I made my comment mostly out of disgust for the shameless appeals to morality you frequently get from those who vote Democrat, but looking back I feel calling them brainwashed implicitly absolves them of the deliberate choice they make to align themselves with imperialist interests in pursuit of personal gain.
It’s really disturbing that anyone could be so brainwashed as to believe the Democrats are meaningfully different from Republicans when they are constantly vowing to kill as many people and ruin as many lives as possible. You really expect me to side with you to stop Trump when you are criticizing him for not being ruthless enough and promising an even more cruel border policy?
"You know, frankly, these folks continue to spew pro-Hamas talking points, continue to spew anti-American, anti-Israel hatred," Lawler said,
adding that "many of them don’t seem to recognize the irony that if they were actually in Gaza, Hamas would very likely kill them."
Seems a lot more likely that the IDF would kill me if I were in Gaza, actually
biden deserves worse. i hope every day like this is torturous and that he lives another 50 years like this
It seems unlikely to me that they’d use covid as the excuse considering how hard they try to pretend that the pandemic is over and that Biden defeated it
There's a pretty big leap between "Most posting happens during work hours" and "Many federal civil service workers spend most of their workdays complaining about their jobs on Reddit." It's not like it matters if people are shit posting at work all day anyways but their data doesn't even back up what they are saying.
