Typical of American culture isn’t it? Just say bullshit loudly and confidently enough and attack anyone who questions you. Insult the other person. Never admit you’re wrong.

Y’all are becoming more Trumpian every day.

People tend to use a lot of jargon when they’re trying to convince others they know what they’re doing.

I’m supposed to ignore the fact that Hamas tortures people? I’m supposed to ignore the fact that Hamas has objectively made things horrible for the Palestinian people?

While you make jokes and memes, while Palestinians in the parts of Gaza Hamas still controls are being tortured. You don’t care about Palestinians, you only care about conforming to meme culture.

Ok… so why are we in “Late stage capitalism” now, and we weren’t in the 1930s? Things were way worse in the 1930s than now.

Perhaps there were some changes in economic policy that fixed the problems then? What reason do we have to believe the solutions that didn’t work in the past (ie. communism) will work now, and the solutions that actually did work in the past won’t work now?

So you agree that constant attacks on the media (the post above for example) and the political opposition to Trump (the many many attacks on the democrats we see everywhere) is being done by those indoctrinated by a fascist society?

So “liberal hypocrisy” is worse than torturing people?

Cognitive dissonance is when you spend all day attacking the exact same things the fascists attack and you think you’re not working for them.

Yup, it’ll screw up, but so do middle managers.

Another use case is replace Hollywood movie execs with LLMs. Sure it will greenlight unoriginal movies, but it would be no real change over the current state of things.

Whataboutism. Whatever you say doesn’t matter to the people Hamas is oppressing.

And really how has the violence of Hamas benefited the Palestinian people? Like at all?

If Cuba were a democracy then sure. But it’s not. So it’s authoritarian vs. authoritarian. No matter what you do, you’re helping an authoritarian asshole.

Hamas tortures people when they speak out against them.

While you joke around and pretend to support the Palestinian people, actual Palestinians are being tortured and killed by Hamas.

“Late stage capitalism” is not a call to action, it’s a call to apathy. It’s used by monetized “socialist” influencers to give a permission structure for people to continue buying from their merch stores.

The logic is the failure of capitalism is inevitable so you don’t need to do anything. So you may as well buy some swag to signal to others that “you get it”. It’s the slogan of those that want to fall in line with the “socialist” aesthetic, without thinking about how socialism is just another thing packaged and sold in a capitalist system.

Are you a bot? Or just an American?

Al Capone didn’t go to prison for murder, he went to prison for tax evasion. Do you think it was because Elliot Ness just didn’t care about murder?

What happens when middle management realizes the only jobs AI can actually do is their jobs?

Instead of talking about the horrible things the fascists in power are doing, Americans across the board sit around complaining about the media and the Democrats. It’s not just that there’s fascists in power, USA has become a fascist society. There are the fascists that directly support Trump and a whole bunch of useful idiots that spend all day attacking any opposition to Trump while pretending to be against him.

You aren’t going to stop fascism by spending all of your time complaining about the media and complaining about the already decimated political opposition to Trump. That’s exactly what the fascists want you to be doing. It’s getting more and more difficult to tell the difference between MAGAs and Americans that are supposedly against Trump because y’all are complaining about the exact same things.

If you’ve been indoctrinated by fascist American culture you probably think it’s completely normal to constantly attack the free press at every opportunity.

I see articles about Iran on the the front pages of NYTimes, CNN, and even CBS News. Some have multiple articles and have Iran in their ticker.

This presswatchers.org site has one article about Iran on their front page. The article linked doesn’t do any actual journalism, and summarzes the work actual journalists have done.

Trump has been asked questions on Iran, but not by anyone at “presswatchers.org” which appears to be the personal blog of some guy called Dan Froomkin who doesn’t appear to be doing any actual journalism. He just sits around complaining about the news being too fact based and not having enough opinion in it.

Neither because I’m not a fascist. Nor am I an idiot that thinks of countries like sports teams to root for or against. Unlike most of the people in these Israel threads.

Maybe read a history book. Tip: the Nazis were the guys that hated the Jews. They also liked to accuse others of that which they were guilty of.

History doesn’t repeat, but it sure as hell rhymes.
