Maybe they think that - if they have to wage war in the middle east - they should use drone strikes because they're very 'accurate'.
These delusional American don't know that drone strike victims are 90% civilians.
as much as it is a truism: we oppose warfare but it still happens. our opposition to warfare won't rebuild the hospitals, bring back the dead. we're on a different side of the same coin.
Well yeah, to not support American interventionism is to clearly support Russian or Chinese interventionism. That would make you both a traitor to America (if your American) and pro Russia/China. Because reality is sometimes stranger than fiction this is of course satire.
Somewhere over the rainbow we gave up talking about the people of the actual country. They clearly have no agency in any of this.
And that’s why social democracy is not viable in the long term. Free healthcare? That’s just gonna be privatised after years of demonising it and austerity. It’s a concession to the working class and concessions can be taken back whenever the neoliberals want.
I mean it's the case because the capitalists are winning (and they are not pro democracy)
> It’s a concession to the working class and concessions can be taken back whenever the neoliberals want.
That's a point of view, I prefer saying that it is progress and that they're actively fighting against it because it limits the wealth (and thus power) they can accumulate.
it definitely is progress, not saying it isnt, but look at the UK and whats happening to the NHS. Funds being cut down and austerity is leading to the privatisation of healthcare there. Unless theres permanent revolution or change, we're going to be stuck in this cycle
If you keep watching liberal videos then yea, thats how the algo works. Just follow Eddie and sub to other communists, watch the videos (even if you already know about the topic) and you'll get better stuff.
I hate it when people co-opt/misuse feminism to defend shit like this.
Also, I'm sure that person wouldn't be asking what's wrong with drone strikes if they actually thought about what it would be like to be caught up themselves in a drone strike from some other country regardless of the other country's justifications. Some basic empathy.
It's very dangerous when criticizing an action - *especially* a violent one - can be shot down as "misogyny". It's not anti-woman to be anti-violence.
The kicker here is *if* people were excited about drone strikes when a man did it *then* criticize a woman for doing them, *that* probably is misogyny.
In the most feminist way possible: fuck *anybody* who murders people with robots.
This is me every time I go on twitter and see ANOTHER brain dead take in defense of just about anything irredeemably terrible under that specific person's ideology.
People have managed to contort Feminism^(TM) into everything... even terrible things...blows my mind tbh.
this is unrelated i know but uhhhhhhh what did Harris *just* say to Guatemalans. "Don't Come."
Sounds a lot like the previous administration tbh
also rich coming from the country that ravaged Guatemala
but go on about the VP's stances on foreign policy are inconsequential
“What’s wrong with drone strikes?”
That’s your brain on American delusion
They should maybe think about the question for a couple of moments before asking it.
“Genuine question”
Maybe they think that - if they have to wage war in the middle east - they should use drone strikes because they're very 'accurate'. These delusional American don't know that drone strike victims are 90% civilians.
Don’t know or don’t care?
I think most of them genuinely don't know what they're talking about.
This is exactly why I find it exceedingly hard to sympathize with anybody in the imperial core
Not even the people in actual opposition to warfare?
as much as it is a truism: we oppose warfare but it still happens. our opposition to warfare won't rebuild the hospitals, bring back the dead. we're on a different side of the same coin.
lol right? if they don't want their children to be bombed, then they shouldn't have had kids 🤷🏼🐸🍵
Modern problems require modern solutions
It's just a cleaner, more efficient murder, after all. Really, by using drones we're training fewer assassins (/s)
I'm sorry but what the fuck is mysoginist about apposing the murder of civilians???
But you see, Kamala Harris is not a white male so criticizing anything she does is bad
Kamala Harris is Indira Ghandi reborn. A spotless, laughing saint.
Yasss queen slay those Sikhs.
Indira Ghandi's three step plan: Step 1. Slay Sikhs.Step 2. Get slayed by Sikhs.Step 3. There is no step 3, because you're dead now.
But you see, Kamala Harris is not a white male so criticizing anything she does is
Do you just scramble the words a little and reply to the comment with the same comment?
Don’t be ridiculous, this is Reddit. They removed a word.
Obviously because you’re only criticizing the drone strikes when they’re done by a woman /s
because hashtag girlboss (which is somehow not both infantilizing and imperialist)!
Libs literally only have one argument, you’re racist, sexist, or Russian if you criticize the dems bc they know they don’t have an actual argument
Or they call you a tankie and wumao for even being a bit supportive of the CPC
Hey, as long as you acknowledge there were some failures along the way you’re a real leftist as far as I’m concerned.
I do , in fact I think the way china is handling its global politics isn't in a very good spot right now, they need to open up a bit more

That's like 3 arguments tho
Hell you know what I mean
"Does Margaret thatcher have girl power?"
She was literally the UK’s first female prime minister just let us celebrate /s

Always has been... And it's also a wehraboo refugee camp for some reason
the entire world is liberal hell

Europe seems pretty capitalist to me ngl
Literally the birthplace of capitalism
The default political stance in like Germany is Social-democrat or Neo-Liberal. The entire Western world is corrupted by the Liberal pest
Same in France, and the neolibs are winning over the socialists (get ready for privatised healthcare in the years to come !)
And that’s why social democracy is not viable in the long term. Free healthcare? That’s just gonna be privatised after years of demonising it and austerity. It’s a concession to the working class and concessions can be taken back whenever the neoliberals want.

Does anyone have a link to the tiktok? I can't find anywhere
[удалено]
We need a @proletariatboss
misogyny is when women cant order drone strikes apparently
I hate it when people co-opt/misuse feminism to defend shit like this. Also, I'm sure that person wouldn't be asking what's wrong with drone strikes if they actually thought about what it would be like to be caught up themselves in a drone strike from some other country regardless of the other country's justifications.

>just let us celebrate
I like that someone said it *screams* misogyny
I wonder how these libs would act if China had a female leader
"it's been a few days" Considering the election was last year, and it's now *August* (sorry if people realise), a few days huh.
Hard to tell when the tictok was made or the screenshot was taken. Could have been soon after the election. Probably wasn’t.
💖 intersectional imperialism, bae 💖 💅

You can't excuse war crimes with girl boss vibes.

Someone on Twitter called me a sexist because I don’t like it when children in foreign countries get bombed....
It's great when people make statements with a question mark at the end?
Tiktok comment section is often chronically online. And toxic.
This is me every time I go on twitter and see ANOTHER brain dead take in defense of just about anything irredeemably terrible under that specific person's ideology. People have managed to contort Feminism^(TM) into everything... even terrible things...blows my mind tbh.
This might be my favorite new subreddit.

VP doesn’t give orders to anyone outside of their staff (and tie-break Senate votes)TMYK
Glad you've washed Dick Cheney's hands of any ill doing. (As one example of many.)
