I don’t know, but I think anyone who cares about progressive ideals should try to make it advantageous for amoral intelligent people to favor those ideals.

There’s no such thing as doing anything for altruistic or communal prospects just for the sake of it, nothing is turning back that clock on reaping the benefits of capitalism, and we can only work with what we have now.

I think ultimately everyone wants self-preservation, where family and community may be an extension of the self, that’s a good starting point. Things are super depressing now to say the least, which is why people who believe in progressive ideals need to hold on even harder.

Seems like all the competent people went to finance and justifying war think tanks, and we are left with these type of clowns for politics

This is all you really need to know about any of this

University of Texas law professor Lee Kovarsky said, “People confuse telling hard truths with just being a total f------ idiot.”

Not enough people are shamed into keeping quiet these days, they think they’re being politically incorrect or edgy or owning woke libs. They’re really just letting everyone who knows how things work that they don’t know

It’s not the Egyptians who were afraid of them, but the undead iirc

Removing comment because I feel like I am just contributing to misinformation and I don’t want to unleash baseless speculation about a community based on a silly thought I came up with as a joke, and not a serious point.

Edit to add clarification

Enshittification of aesthetics

Once you’re pregnant, you no longer have rights to your own body because another person is occupying it.

Except that a clump of a cells is not a person, so I am not sure how this argument holds.

This reasoning stems from the claim that fathers have an equal share in the property that is the child.

So, does that mean all sperm a man is carrying is also subject to community property rights? Don’t masturbate and destroy shared property, or you can be sued 😂 Sex cells and their less-developed products are not humans and as such not subject to any rights.

By contrast, all those state liabilities - health care, education, social services for children - are “positive rights”. Libertarians assert that these rights are actually an unlawful infringement on one human by another, because they must be paid for out of a communal set of resources.

These kind of services and rights are the reason why people formed civilizations in the first place, that is more organized allocation of resources. They didn’t form civilizations and societies to make some billionaire assholes richer. They don’t maintain social contracts out of the goodness of their hearts or because they’re weak, but because civilization and society provides for them in meaningful and substantial ways. Otherwise it’s slavery, and they have the right to eat the assholes who oppress them.

Why not?

Is this post sane-washing Russia? What’s left about Russia under Putin? Overall funny, though

Their platform made me roll my eyes a bit, the only fiscal conservative that makes sense is when you tax billionaires out of existence. Fiscal conservatism that taxes the poor and doesn’t give them benefits is more neocon bullshit

Totally

yfw a cashless society doesn’t have dollar bills to confirm

What’s the original line in this scene? Can’t look up the episode because I don’t know it

All platforms are going for mass audience appeal, it’s such bullshit

I didn’t screenshot it lol, it’s literally like that from the the place I stole it from

React to them like how’d you react to a face eating leopard

It’s a bit of a troll comment, I admit

I like that the spider follows her around, where is it in the second panel?
