Give that line to a holocaust survivor and see what they say.

By my metrics the majority of people are fascists, and it’s a terrifying world to live in. When I think about that £36 trillion I’m reminded of those old legends about things like a “Well of Souls” and ugly beasts hoarding and guarding food from the villages. It’s almost like these types of people have cautionary tales about them for a reason, and that we’ve been here before. Humans have always had one common monster - inhumans. Money is the religious monarchy of our day, we wonder how people could believe in witches yet people think food, science, and trade comes from money. “How can the world work without God Money?” is the dogma of our times.

Or when you don’t realize that it already is directly affecting you because “They pay me well enough to keep me in a comfy box, I don’t have time to do anything or read or risk losing my job” while the ones they love are picked off one by one. Then when they come out the other side they go “How did all this happen? It was equally the fault of the radicals on both sides.” Thus the unenlightened centrist cycle will continue.

Anyone who knows anything about the Native Americans, the Indigenous Critique, and their ideas of freedom’s profound influence on the European Enlightenment, should boil with hatred at what European Americans did to them.

Smaller population simply means each person’s vote counts for more.

What about the smaller tribes who live under strict patriarchies that can’t vote? Plenty examples of those in history and today (cults for instance). There are also examples of massive cities with egalitarian urban planning with no centralized temples or food storage. So again I ask, what makes you think population size has anything to do with their politics?

I call the people who hold accounts in the £36 TRILLION in offshore tax havens and all those who are okay with it “fascists.”

I am, they’re fascists, whatever colour shirt they’re wearing. And hard disagree that our modern problems can’t be described by old ones, what an ahistorical take.

Or Andrew Jackson.

That’s just rich people behavior.

I figure ProPublica and The Lancet doesn’t feel the need to write about a Nazi salute we could all see for our own eyes, no investigative journalism necessary.

Do you really expect leftists to NOT spend all their effort dunking on other leftists? That’s why there is no more Left left, because the honest truth is most people are okay with fascism out of convenience and self preservation, that is, till fascists come knocking on their door. And even then, they’ll be more than happy to be peacefully escorted into the van. If i’m wrong there would be an armed leftists movement a la Black Panthers but with more support, but we don’t see that do we? Leftist ego’s competing at who’s theory is better doesn’t solve anything.

Communication is 100% what the other person hears.

There’s no mark of edit, you read it wrong. In your world is it more likely that comment was stealthily editted to dunk on you than simply you being wrong about something?

He does have a heart, don’t make that mistake. That’s one of the key areas of the body to aim at, see Figure 1: Brian Thompson.

The apathetic centrist majority who think political illiteracy is the smart and sensible position are the biggest asset to fascism.

Yet today when Americans have 2A and 11 guns per person instead of killing tyrants they’ll side with them out of convenience and self preservation. The apathetic centrist majority who think political illiteracy is the reasonable and sensible position are the biggest asset to fascism.

Being a Nazi doesn’t help either.

You basically just described every fascist/Nazi ever while arguing that he’s not really a Nazi just “edgy.” Let’s not make this same mistake again, hyper insecure spoiled man-children with enough ties to the far right to idolize anti-social behavior ARE NAZIS.

A bigger, louder ‘0’ is still equal to 0, but with more wasted effort to boot. The question is why Berliners still like Naziism enough to leave that building standing is what I wonder when they shine a projector on it for a day and call it anything. I would say they’re doing a lot more to waste effort, energy, optics, and time than being on lemmy.
