Right wingers are shit, be they conservatives or liberals. This has become specially clear after the Oct 7 retaliation.
“The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way: the liberal is more deceitful than the conservative.”

db0 isn’t holding back for the lemmy libs and I’m here for it
Most of the trolls are liberals/right-wingers on lemmy.world that came from reddit as far as I can see, like /u/chakan2 up above
Dang didn’t realize that’s what it was referencing
Any pro-Palestinians asserting racist antisemitic stereotypes?
WEAK wumao
Disagree. The CPC gave me a raise for ratio’ing in this thread
The part of your comment asserting the “asians have yellow skin” stereotype, what else?
copy pasta that gets Chinese propaganda pushers in trouble with Winnie The Pooh
What parallel universe are libs living in 😭😭
Love the racism there too. Really brings the whole thing together
Chad behaviour
That’s included in the “industrializing” part, no?
Under capitalism, industrialization and therefore “market domination” realistically means ignoring the laws meant to keep competition down.
Me neither, but killing some of the capitalist class has always been part of leftist revolutions so I can let this one slide.
Yeah, it’s terrible how capitalists and their megacorps might not profit as much if that’s happening…
(which it isn’t these days btw; countries like the US and China violated bullshit british IP laws when industrializing, and they don’t really need to do that once they are industrialized)
It’s a tool that’s often used for imperialism, so while it’s not like it had “nothing to do with religion”, pointing at it instead of class society is kinda putting the cart before the horse.
Like Alsephina said, it seems like you’re still stuck in a religious mindset. The issue of religion will simultaneously be tackled by dealing with its root causes: class society and material conditions. As is what happened / is happening in socialist societies like the USSR, China, DPRK etc.
Palestine is being colonized for being a bridge between Asia and Africa, not for any “religious” reasons. Theodor Herzl, founder of the “zionism” was a racist colonizer who saw colonizing Palestine as bringing ‘civilization’ to ‘barbarians’ as the rest of Europe did when they were colonizing and enslaving Africa and Asia:
“We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence.” Source [II]
The difference now is that the US has been the de facto leader of the imperial core since WW2, no longer UK in Europe, hence the US being its main master.
Religions are a consequence of class society and a region’s material conditions. Seeing anything entirely through the lens of religion is not very materialist.
Settler colonialism wasn’t a religion last time I checked
World’s largest settler colony votes in favour of colonialism. More at 11
The U.S. official said Israel notified the U.S. in advance. “We were not surprised,” the official said.
I thought they were at least gonna continue pretending they don’t want a regional escalation?
Iran warns Israel, US of ‘severe response’ in case of retaliation
Sanctions have been a blessing for Russia and China. Seems like they just make massive economies more self-sustaining and global south-oriented.
Lmfao this is the funniest thing I’ve read all week. What alternate universe are libs living in?
When/if a civil war or working-class revolution ever reaches the heart of the imperial core — the US — it will be after most of the world has overthrown capitalism to become socialist (assuming capitalism doesn’t kill us all by climate change or a nuclear war by then), not at the start of a hypothetical major war.
Happens when you deindustrialize your own country to crush working-class movements
