one of america’s bad wars
So, all of them except when we swooped in at the end of WWII to take credit?
nooo I only joined for the esoteric rites you can’t just do the rest of Catholicism!!
They don’t even have anything to base the claim on, just a translated statement that includes “reducing abortions” in the middle of a bunch of family support measures that would intrinsically reduce incentives for abortions
Even Bluey has an episode where the moral is, “If you have symptoms of ADHD, consider joining the army.”
My kid’s still too young to talk in much depth, but my intention is to curate as much copaganda as I can out of their media diet while still fulfilling most of their media requests, and to treat “the cop talk” the same way I intend to treat sexuality: answer questions frankly and concisely when they come up. They’ll ask for more details if they’re wondering, and the rest probably won’t be relevant to them yet.
I wanted to be a fighter pilot when I was a kid, but that didn’t survive me seeing how the military swindles soldiers, much less learning about the Korean War etc.
In its decadent aspect the national bourgeoisie gets considerable help from the Western bourgeoisies who happen to be tourists enamored of exoticism, hunting and casinos. The national bourgeoisie establishes holiday resorts and playgrounds for entertaining the Western bourgeoisie. This sector goes by the name of tourism and becomes a national industry for this very purpose. We only have to look at what has happened in Latin America if we want proof of the way the ex-colonized bourgeoisie can be transformed into “party” organizer. The casinos in Havana and Mexico City, the beaches of Rio, Copacabana, and Acapulco, the young Brazilian and Mexican girls, the thirteen-year-old mestizas, are the scars of this depravation of the national bourgeoisie. Because it is lacking in ideas, because it is inward-looking, cut off from the people, sapped by its congenital incapacity to evaluate issues on the basis of the nation as a whole, the national bourgeoisie assumes the role of manager for the companies of the West and turns its country virtually into a bordello for Europe.
Once again we need only to look at the pitiful spectacle of certain republics in Latin America. U.S. businessmen, banking magnates and technocrats jet “down to the tropics,” and for a week to ten days wallow in the sweet depravity of their private “reserves.”

I’m torn on whether this person has a vibes-based vocabulary or is dogwhistling
I am willing to kill us all in a fireball if that’s what it takes for me to drive more dangerously and shave 15 seconds off of my trip. You want to kill excellence
The good news is that if they ride a motorcycle like their pfp suggests and they think like this, they probably also refuse to wear a real motorcycle helmet
Facts. As the West’s colonial enforcers train and join police forces in the imperial core, we can watch the empire continue to turn inward in real time
It feels incredible that Fanon was writing about this more than 60 years ago
K. You Suck.
And yes.
No one buys their shit. They’re just doing a sartre-quote and any upvotes are from other nazis
They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
I am the media I consume and I will defend myself. If you tell me why you like something else instead, that is an attack against me. Also if that media changes in a way I don’t like, the creators are insidiously stealing a part of me
you still dont get it
ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape
