moraes has ordered twitter to be shut down
i know that lib would do the same to communists, but since that cursed website is a den of nazi fucks i'm actually pretty happy about it
gonna be harder to see how my ex is doing though... but it's all for the best lmao
it's the main reason why i'm perfectly ok with independent unions being illegal in communist countries
most federal universities in brazil are currently striking against lula's neoliberal government, and more have been joining every month (my campus is deciding today)
but the biggest demand from professors is a wage raise... when they already earn more than like 95% of the population and universities are seriously lacking in stuff like capital for infrastructure, scholarships, etc. i mean, salaries already account for 90% (not a typo; it really is 90%) of federal university expenses
always sad to see how capitalism can turn unions into selfish orgs
every time i think china is being disappointing they kind of do more than i was expecting
lula recalling his ambassador from israel is the happiest i've been with his 3rd term since the scholarship raises
if this escalates to cutting relations with the zionist occupiers i'm not even criticizing his domestic policies anymore, just full, uncritical support to his government. i genuinely believe palestine is the dividing line, where all contradictions come to meet
and not only are decisions being made right now gonna tell me whose side each group will be on in the future, but whatever comes out of this war has the potential to heavily impact capitalism long term
I don't know why I still bother. That site achieves the unthinkable: it is way fucking worse than Twitter.
i'm pretty sure half of reddit users aren't even real people, or at least not real people expressing real opinions
if you go out in the streets there's no way you'd find that level or frequency of anti-palestine rhetoric. i mean, fuck, how many pro-israel protests have you seen and how many people were in those compared to pro-palestine ones?
settlers are not "israeli citizens"
they're barely even people
even a social democrat would cringe at this shit
Most countries are assisting Ukraine where they can.
lmao here i am living in a 200 million people country where nobody gives a single fuck about ukraine
even more political groups and discussions rarely involve ukraine except when lula decides to own zelensky in some way, no one here cares about nato's proxy war
why is it that every ukkkraine shill acts like history started in february 2022
a lot of those bannings were pre-2022
i think i agree, it's not that hard because you only need 3 ingredients for a prosperous capitalist society: 1) reasonably clean and effective government; 2) good regulation, which takes care of workers and the environment in the country; 3) a heavily exploited third world where 1st world mining companies go to get cheap resources and employ a semi-slave labor force that has to drink the resulting poisoned water, and if they ever have the gall to revolt you just sanction or nato-bomb their asses back to the stone age
it has been working for centuries, i dunno why these leftoids keep talking shit
the US has been stoking it since 8 years earlier
way more than that
america knew what they were doing in late 2000s when they started the ukraine into nato bullshit; a lot of important people, including some ghouls, said russia would see it as an existential threat. i mean, fuck, angela merkel was saying that back then
that last part is so true lmao
when these evangelical leaders were reaching their peak, back in late 00's/early 10's, the PT decided to support rather than to fight them, in the hopes that they would get electoral support (which they even did, for a time; but like any reactionary opportunist, those leaders soon turned their back on the party)
