Re: The American haute-bourgeoisie want a leftist form of capitalism.

You are not debating in good faith. Your insistence I read everything is an attempt to either make me feel small or convert me.

Re: Male Chinese ‘Relatives’ Assigned to Uyghur Homes Co-sleep With Female ‘Hosts’

At the same time, litigating the rape element is a distraction from the clear underlying point. The Chinese government is so totalitarian in its ambitions to suppress the Uyghur people that they'll literally turn your house into occupied territory in addition to mass internment into re-education ca...

Re: Male Chinese ‘Relatives’ Assigned to Uyghur Homes Co-sleep With Female ‘Hosts’

Before I answer(which will have to be a few days later since I am going to be busy for the next couple of days), do you have any evidence of Chinese attempting ethnic cleansing? Any examples in the history since the PRC was established. What is being described is literally an act of genocide. Impri...

Re: Covington student's lawsuit against Washington Post reinstated

Are you blind to the risk the left-wing is CREATING the very Nazis it claims to oppose, i.e., repeating the mistakes the right-wing made a half-century ago? How can the left create Nazis? The same way the right creates extremists, by denying "ideological rivals" (read: anyone who doesn't ...

Re: Covington student's lawsuit against Washington Post reinstated

Re: USA betrays the Kurds, Turkey attacks.

If I were PotUS, I would immediately withdraw US weapons and forces from Turkey, and demand their expulsion from NATO, with any continued American participation in NATO contingent on the other members' agreement.

It's one of those sum-totality things. Both the resident's cars are in driveway, the lights are on. It's just... the front door is open, with the screen door shut.

Re: General Police Abuse Thread

That makes sense coming from you and anyone else with your political position. However, not all ACAB people belong to your political group so that leaves us with the enforcing of laws that they view are unjust which logically makes sense to have that position.

Except that communism is just as much a miserable failure as capitalism is.

You bring up an interesting point. I think you're right.

Yes. This is a looooong term goal. *Sighs m...
