As a nuclear war expert, Mr. Sagan should be aware that the Biden administration did not take the opportunity to get Iran back to not pursuing nukes, because that would have meant holding up the Amerikan end of the deal and ending or at least easing sanctions on them. That's why Trump broke the treaty in the first place, because Iran complying was supposed to be rewarded with a lifting of US sanctions and Trump didn't want that. And Biden didn't want that, either, and instead chose to further drive home the point that you cannot trust any agreement with the US. And these people are wondering why their empire is in decay. They think they can brute force their way through anything, and it will be their downfall.
The easiest way to weed out any form of reactionary sentiment is to call out that kind of sentiment and then bring the hammer down. We've seen this in earlier purges like the pronoun struggles, you can observe the same thing every time in any space where somebody brings up a topic reactionaries find "controversial". People with the views that are called out will feel offended and double down, and it's always in really obvious, blatantly mask off ways. When i've seen misogyny on this site before, it was usually a lot more vague and between the lines, now we have posters outright saying chud shit like
examples from the mod log
"misandrist drivel" or "women who are free to date who they want are an existential threat to me" or "nonbinary people can't be lesbians".
The bible is full of stories about refugees, from the Israelites making their way out of Egypt to Jesus himself. There's a lot of very valid criticisms to be made about Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular, but helping refugees is literally hardwired into the faith and an obligation to any practicing Christian and it's sign of how fascist immigration policies are completely normalized that the time-honored tradition of using churches as shelters for those seeking asylum is under attack all across the imperial core. This isn't just a thing in Texas, i know several stories from Germany about refugees using church asylum as a last resort to avoid deportation, with examples including an Afghan family or a lesbian woman from Morocco who had already been on trial for her sexual orientation.
This can't be real, he's not even dressed like a c-tier Batman villain
Stalin shouldn't have stopped at Berlin.
Her thinking that all rich people are evil isn't communist, it's just her lived experience growing up amongst silicon valley ghouls.
I'm going with comrade Feinberg on this, i use woman for the gender identity, feminine for the social role and female for biological characteristics. If you need an adjective relating to woman, it's womanly, if you need a noun relating to feminine, it's fem / femme, if you want to use female as a noun you better be talking about a dog and not a human being.
Amerika is at the point where people in California get shot for flying a rainbow flag.
Honestly, including people is why i prefer just saying queer over using acronyms. It's completely open-ended, it doesn't create a hierachy based on who gets named first and who ends up with one of the slots behind the LGBT that may or may not be included by a given speaker, it's easy to use, it doesn't shoehorn people into rigid categories and makes it easy to fit in for people who are questioning or have complex identities - and it pisses off the exact type of bourgousified, reactionary, assimilationist, racist, mysogynist, transphobic, biphobic cis gays that the farthead you're replying to refers to when they bring up how supposedly "gay people shit talk" all of this.
Unfortunately, this is correct. Allowing the r/196 lifeboat in basically doomed her community.
I think MDCCLXXV is supposed to be 1776 even though it actually means 1775, that would also go under the second bullet point
