Communism
Your government is never lowering the age of consent, get over it.
What kind of a sick fuck thinks disliking communism makes u a pedo. You have serious problems maybe stop projecting.
Ahahaha! You couldn't have made a worse reply if you tried!!
I bet if I googled ur name it would be on a list.
Now there's the projection.
The venn diagram between "libertarians", "fascists", and "people who spend WAY MORE TIME than what is advisable or conscionable arguing about the age of consent" is three degrees in any direction from being a pure circle; and ironically, all three of these entities have a rather hateful hardon for communists.
It's almost like an ideology that revolves around abolishing exploitative sociological relationships makes enemies of exploiters or something; go figure.
So according to you all libertarians are facist child abusers? You realise how fucking stupid that sounds there are a lot of libertarians and very few facists and child abusers who anyone with half a brain hates. You my simple minded friend clearly don't understand how Venn diagrams and mathematics works or ur purposefully being a cunt. Which one is it, are u stupid or a cunt?
As for the ideology thing I think ull find that the problem with communism is that we don't live in an ideal world and unfortunately a communist utopia is a profoundly unachievable goal. Sure I fully support ur efforts in abolishing exploitative structures who not do something that actually can make change like join a union or write an email to literally every politician u can vote for a threaten to vote them out.
Haven't seen a reason to believe otherwise. Beyond all that, I'm not reading the rest of your aggrieved, scratched-liberal horseshit.
You are a spineless, collaborating quisling to the capitalist elite, and undoubtedly a taker-of-liberties inspired by their exploitations. Otherwise, you wouldn't be fighting so hard to preserve it. Hope one of your indigenes takes back everything your ancestors stole, cac.
That one's going in the dank bank!
Go touch grass
I'm just fighting for everyone's right to self determination and expression. These ideas aren't necessarily against the ideology of communism just its implementation. Anyone who thinks any implementation will go differently than literally every other example in history is a complete moron or purposefully ignorant of history.
Look man I'm going to ignore ur baseless inflammatory and outright hateful tantrum and ask u to go educate urself on history, culture, and political ideology. You have swallowed someone else's ideology without question or independent evaluation you have fallen for the exact same process of manipulation used by the the neo facists and Nazis. However me saying any of this is going to be completely pointless since uve been trained to ignore any argument that doesnt fit what u already believe. I guess in ur world 2+2 really does equal 5.
Nice one. Go read a fucking book.
Didn't he kill people who supported slavery out of a fanatical Christian morality. Seems fair to me still don't see why he would shoot me. Please explain.
ohh nooo! them evil asiaric barbarians want to improve our lives, how horrible!
thank ~~mammon~~ god that we saved them by giving them shock therapy and with it the great carrier options of crime and prostitution.
we are so civilized.
I don't know why this is getting downvoted. Communism is a pretty bad thing.
I said it as a joke cos someone said capitalism its an excellent example of lemmys political bias. I find it very interesting that lemmy embodies so many of the ideals of the marketplace of idea a fundamentally libertarian concept yet it has a bias towards the extreme left that fundamentally hate the concept.
Maybe one or two more genocides/famines and then they might relise.
The sickening irony of "theOSINTguy" talking about "one or two more genocides" when America has been complicit, has aided, and is abetting two genocides rn, with one JUST in the rear-view after Obama left office. You settlers are not slick.
I think you forgetting rule number 1 of genocides. Its not a genocide if you win the war. Winners write history. Not saying its right that's just how it is.
Meanwhile, in Israel...
According to them that's not real communism as its never been tried properly. They are missing the fundamental problem that it can never be tried properly cos it can never be implemented successfully. But they don't let that stop them.
You sound like a convict settler
What does that even mean? Are u calling me a coloniser? A convict? Both? Please explain ur idiotic logic.
Considering you spelled "colonizer" with an 's', you are really not doing yourself any favors
Its called "English (traditional)" as opposed to the yanks who use "English (simplified)". Remind me again what you Americans did to your native population? Three words pot kettle black.
and wow promoting that unhinged naming scheme for US/UK English, really another incredible echelon of coloniser-brain
Neither I or my ancestors are colonisers my hands are as clean as yours.
"what [..] Americans did to [their] native population" you mean continuing the genocide that the British colonists enthusiastically started?
Imagine asking a Black guy what crackers did to the natives. Exactly what they ~~did~~ are still doing to us, peckerwood.
Imagine assuming I'm part of the British minority who did the colonising and not the majority who got colonised and also learned proper English. I mean I'm neither so ur point is even more idiotic.
Nah I assumed you were an aussie from "munted" and the s you keep putting in colonizer; hence "convict settler". Not like either one deserves enough respect to be demarcated distinct from one another, but that's a whole different kettle of catfish.
20-25% of current Aussies have convict ancestors and 40-45% have coloniser ancestors. I'm not even going to engage in ur stupidity of blaming the people of the present for shit that happened over 100years ago.
Imagine splitting the difference when convicts were still used for settler-colonialism, yawn. Are you still going, peck?
No. I'm separating the fact that the entire events of colonisation happened over a hundred years ago. That's a lot of goddamn time.
The fact that you think it is speaks to how comfortable your life is lmfao. For my people, a hundred years changed fucking nothing. Schools, jobs, living districts, third spaces, the fact that we still get lynched by cops and fed into prison slavery if we're lucky enough to survive a cop run-in; all still segregated in ways that are just nebulous enough to get a veneer of plausible deniability from the settlers thanks to the efforts of assimilationist tokens. Y'know, the artifice that lets you say "a hundred years is a long time and everything is different now". I couldn't be paid to believe your situation is any different-- just where you sit on the pecking order.
But this is all a waste of time. Even if you read what I'm saying-- which I doubt-- you'd never internalize it. You're physically incapable of seeing how your sausage is made; otherwise, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
I am reading what ur writing I think it's critically important to for everyone myself included to talk to people one disagrees with.
Well ur talking about america in this situation and well yeah I agree America is completely fucked its the worlds greatest third world country. I never said its different now I'm simply washing my hands of any responsibility for something that happened 100 years ago.
If I was in charge of america here's what I would do to fix the country, let me know what u think
Its long needs improvement and totally off the top of my head so I'd love to get some feedback.
