Because Israel is a useful geopolitical tool for the current liberal hegemon to use to project power outside of their influence via destabilisation of the middle east, and The West™ doesn't give a fuck if a coupla their citizens gets killed in the crossfire as long as they can keep on top of the world.

Here's one from TERF island.

During the rollout of COVID furlough, the BBC decided to run a propaganda piece for the Tories that depicted then Chancellor of the Exchequer (and soon to be deposed Prime minister) Rishi Sunak as Superman.

Thursday.

Damn it.

First Thatcher and now this decrepit Nazi.

Why can't these fuckers die on the weekend so I can have a proper piss up with my mates in celebration?

I don't think Hogwarts was made by conservatives though, was it?

For a most of its development, the lead designer was one of those YouTube antifeminists and had ties to gamergate.

The main storyline is about putting down a rebellion of a segregated underclass. The goblins themselves lean heavily into old antisemitic caricatures, and there's an incredibly uncomfortable parallel between blood libel narratives and the goblins kidnapping children for some sort of ritual.

Looking cynically at the one trans character (who's character is largely just telling the player that she is trans), I'd wager she was a last minute inclusion to try and shield the game from some of the backlash of its right wing premise.

OK, that's as good an answer as any.

Salvador Allende got couped three years after his election. Are there any ways you can think to prevent a foreign power from undermining future hypothetical socialist governments that wouldn't be authoritarian?

The fact that you think Trotsky would've been less authoritarian than Stalin betrays that you don't know shit about him yourself.

Not a socialist, but I am genuinely curious.

Is there any socialist revolution that you wouldn't class a fascist?

TL:DR you lost an argument and want to make it everyone else's problem.

pays for the children of non-working people (there's a shitload of subsidies going into their pockets),

Do children deserve to starve because their parents aren't employed?
