To build a society worth having no one should ever have to be ‘thrown under the bus’ - except maybe bigots - if we really have to make it the bigots
People who say that we can’t afford to help those in need are essentially admitting that capitalism doesn’t work
The news that Trump put pressure on Israel to call a ceasefire puts paid to the lie that Joe or Kamala couldn’t do anything to stop the atrocities in the first place
Lots of great little cameos in the new @shaunvids.bsky.social video essay

But the Jorbson Peterson one almost made me spill my beer

Just a reminder that the countries who fought the Nazis didn’t do it because they were opposed to their values but because they saw them as a threat to their own power

Nazi atrocities were just a convenience allowing them to say ‘were the good guys’

Evil isn’t banal - it’s endemic to the species
Establishment dems would rather help a republican win then let the electorate have any say in their democracy

You’re free to do as they tell you
When the “most moral army in the world™️” fire warning shots its because you walked into an active combat zone

Conveniently the active combat zone is beside a food distribution site that they gave conflicting advice over

Also warning shots always seem to be aimed at crowds of people
So Israel has been arming a gang of thugs that are stealing aid ‘under the watch of Israeli forces’ according to the UN

If this is the most moral army in the world I might need to bring my moral compass to be fixed

Turns our we’re supposed to encourage suffering no prevent it 🙄
To which the gunman replied ‘well are you a protestant athiest or a catholic athiest?’

My friends dead now .. they killed him

At least that what he tells me
Reminds me of my friend who was driving through Northern Ireland during the troubles when he got stopped at a checkpoint by gunmen in balaclavas

They asked ‘are you a protestant or a catholic’

My friend quick witted-ly replied ‘oh neither. I’m an athiest’
Don’t you mean your post-white half

We don’t exist anymore

Racism has been solved

Oh happy day
There’s a really great Skunk Anasie song about this

Of course, because I’ve listened to that song I know now enough to be allowed lecture about the POC experience even though I’m the pastiest of pasty white Irish ☘️
You might do well to ask yourself what you might have done to earn the grief

(The original post on this thread is blocked so I might be missing a lot of context)

Sometimes as (post) white males the best thing we can do is listen instead of being self righteous in our righteousness
I’m just letting you know what ‘plastic paddy’ means

You seemed to take offense at the term ‘paddy’ but ‘plastic paddy’ is an Irish creation

You can call yourself whatever you like but there are definitely some who argue that if you didn’t grow up on Tayto and Skips then you’re Irish Lite
‘Plastic Paddy’

It’s what Irish people call Yanks who think they are Irish
I might have gone overboard on the misokin
I got to the point where my own notes became a puzzle i had to solve before i could solve the game’s puzzles

Note to self: take better notes
Remember - whenever any corporation speak of values they are lying .. they only value one thing - line go up

Even in a small company under the capitalist system turning a profit must always come first
Harris lost most of her votes in states where it didn’t effect the results (CA / NY etc). In the key battleground states she actually gained votes over Biden. The sad truth is Trump actually gained 3 mil votes over 2020

People against genocide didn’t lose the election - America being fucked did
‘The left pushed to hard’

You mean ‘a big corporation made a terrible sequel to the space shooty movie I liked so now I have no choice but to support bigotry’

The left isn’t pushing nearly hard enough
As always migrant workers and asylum seekers are scapegoated instead of looking at the people doing the exploiting

Care workers are being exploited by unscrupulous employers they said. The solution - ban foreign care workers.

Genius
The new Labor party plans for immigration are tighter than Japan - a country that even white people claim is racist (to white people of course - the only racism that counts /s)

Between this & Starmers u-turn on trans women being women I wonder if ‘spineless worm party’ might be a better name
