I'd just remove all detail of what she did, no matter how you phrase it it reads as potential justification. Those details don't matter.
I think you're getting hung up on an artificial separation of politics and economics, you should look up a critique of this or investigate why political economy is a useful framework for analysis.
Where is that video of the Chinese cop tearing milk company managers a new one for calling the police in response to workers staging a sit in as part of a labor dispute?
Bisexuals who bring the straight relationship paradigm into dating or the bedroom. (Not all or most bisexuals, but damn, certainly some)
It's mostly just really sad -men need to up their dating game, and a lot of straight sex expectations feel kindaremovedy. Like girl it's not normal for your partner to choke you in the middle of sex without asking or prenegotiation and it is weird that you were disappointed that I didn't do that.
Really good book! A little bit inaccessible in the first two chapters though.
Jokes aside, a good start is to join a socialist org, participate, and start developing yourself politically. I believe cowbee has a good reading list.
But only if you're doing what needs to be done.
Please read "Imperialism: the highest stage of capitalism" and then explain what you mean.
No, settler colonialism
How has China been picking up the slack? Who have they couped or invaded? Who have they sanctioned?
I love it when people call a transitional economy state capitalist because it betrays a lack of understanding of actually existing capitalism and the role the state plays in it.
Huh, TIL. The main point still stands that the soviet union actually made a lot of progress on human rights, even compared to imperialist countries with more accumulated capital.
Remind me, what was the first European country to legalize abortion? Oh, after that, what was the second country to legalize abortion?
When did soviet women get the right to divorce their husbands?
What was the literacy rate before the soviet union? What was it after? Answer the same questions about women's literacy.
What was the schooling rate before the soviet union? What was it after? Answer the same questions about women's schooling.
What was the college graduation rate before the soviet union? What was it after? Answer the same questions about women's college graduation.
What was the first European state to decriminalize homosexuality? How did the Stasi respond to gay civil rights protestors? What did Castro do upon learning that gay people were being mistreated in (alternative to conscription) labor camps? All of this decades before Lawrence V Texas. Hell, trans people got free transition care in Cuba before Lawrence V Texas. The socialist record on LGBT rights isn't perfect but it is better than capitalist countries. I mean, hell, look at the way capitalist Germany treated lgbt people during the holocaust.
Do you think socialists are out to collectivize your toothbrush?
No, the siezing of factories and large estates is not equivalent to siezing your sewing needles or your backyard garden. They seize these means of production because their previous ownership was about denying people access to the means of production, not because they don't think individuals should have their own means of production.
Except imperialism is actually incredibly inefficient in the long term. Western nations become imperialist due to the contradictions created by capitalism.There is a reason why China's foreign policy is centered around mutual advancement.
I mean- yeah, the birdcage model has been supplanted by majority public ownership at this point, the same incentives that create the military industrial complex don't exist- if you'd like, i would recommend reading "Economy and Class Structure of German Fascism" which can be a handy reference point for the US military complex.
A million Uyghurs, whose only apparent crime is being Muslim, have been sent to labor camps and undergone forced sterilization.
Do you know the sources of these claims? Because you're repeating stuff that was first spread around by a German Christian nationalist (a euphemism) employed by a cia front group, which had already been debunked, and could be debunked by anyone looking at his methodology who is able to read mandarin.
Why is this myth pushed so hard by western countries which slaughter Muslims by the millions, and are engaged in genocide against a majority Muslim population as we speak?
Why do Muslim delegations visiting uniformly support the way China has treated its minority Muslim populations? Before you say sectarianism, investigate and realize that the delegations were intentionally multi-sectarian.
Tiananmen Square started out as people peacefully protesting government corruption, and ended in the state murdering them.
How violently do you think the US would have responded to US protestors trying to overthrow the government when they start burning and lynching to death unarmed soldiers? You can still find photos online of mutilated PLA soldiers corpses from june 2nd. 300 or so dead, including the soldiers that were killed, seems pretty light. Oh wait, the US military would never show up to a protest not armed to the teeth, silly me.
You do understand that free speech that doesn't threaten the government is tolerated everywhere, right? Us having more free speech here is just a function of the US government feeling more secure in its power, you can still find examples of free speech being punished in the US when it has threatened its power.
Have you read anything on what imperialism actually is?
I would suggest reading Lenin's "Imperialism"
I think just saying he killed his girlfriend isn't taken as "political" but I think killing your girlfriend and killing your girlfriend because she cheated are both actions with a political content
