      Seriously. When someone’s “leftism” leads to positions that support the US’s violent foreign policy actions (murder), they should really pause and examine what is going on.

      Looking at NATO “leftists”. Looking at " anti-auhoritarians" who celebrate attacks on other nations’ sovereignty because their governments are “autocratic”

      What’s more is NATO doesn’t have a leg to stand on after supporting Isreal and Ukrainian nazis for years. Some of these “”““leftists””“” will recognize what the US is doing is wrong, recognize the US lied about Iraq, Vietnam, and a dozen other places, but this time…THIS TIME…the US totally isn’t lying about Venezuela or supporting the local contras/ISIS/Kuomintang/whatever right wing terror group.

    [cw: crackers trying to get away with using slurs] i wonder if this happened in other people’s high schools back in like 2009. there was one of those white kids who thought he was eminem and he was talking to his other eminem-american friend, and he was explaining how he figured out a way to “sound like they’re saying the n word without actually saying it”. “say ‘nyuh’, that way it sound kinda like it, but you aint actually saying it”. later in class he dropped it a little bit louder then started looking around to see if any if the black kids heard it and were about to beat his ass. but yeah i’m just curious if those type of white dudes at anyone else’s high school tried that. it’s one of those things that seems like it would be really specific but turns out to be pretty universal

      We had entire packs of Eminem-Americans (lmao new mayo classification just dropped) at my high school circa the early-mid 2000s. They were annoying as fuck. I think I mentioned them a few threads back months ago. As far as I know, none of them would say the n-word. They would use the gay f-word and various slurs for Latine people, though (but that was typical of all the white kids at my school).

      Oh yeah i definitely relate. Some kid sang it with the hard r as a joke.

      Anyways, how could I tell this one other white guy why starting to say the N word as an adult isn’t okay?

      I found this video essay involving modern blackfacing and minstrel shows called The Evolution of the Culture Vulture interesting. Some white guy i know started saying the n word ending with an “a” as a joke when almost 30 years old. I only see him once every several years and idk if I should send him this video. We dont talk in between those years. He’s mostly associated with my boyfriend, and they can go over a year without talking. If I end up doing that I would say “Even though I think its not okay you’re specifically doing an exact thing in this video, I still appreciate your intent and your great quality of trying to create good vibes however you can. This does not mean at all that I’d disown you as a friend. Its just to say take a step back and examine what youre doing when you…” Idk i can’t think of how to discuss this with him so here I am.

      He’s a busy guy, he may never watch the video. I have social anxiety too so I may never send anything. I just want to know how to carry out a convo about this and still want advice anyways. That shit really bothered me and I couldn’t place why until seeing the video.

      Sone context: I’m not black and don’t live in the black experience.

    Engaging with white leftists is always a coin flip of whether or not it makes me think maybe the third world maoist have a point because holy fuck only 1/10 don’t make me think they all want to watch us die but take a photo op in the process to assauge the guilt.

    Whites only care about poc dying when bad country does it or bad politician. Any defense or pushback is “whataboutism”, something they’re quick to use themselves when they’re on the receiving end of criticism.

    Ima start calling Trump “Liberal Jesus.” Genocide in Palestine? A plot orchestrated by Trump in 2016 to make Biden look bad in 2020. Ukrainian-Russian War? Also orchestrated by Trump with Putin and totally not the result of the Obama administration in 2014.

    Trump is going to be dead soon, for liberals will be the ones who kill him by placing all their sins on his shoulders.

    Liberals using the “well actually immigrants work far harder and are more skilled” as a take that to maga seem to miss the point that immigrants do so out of desperation and lack of options. Not to mention equating not complaining to anything but how often ICE and the like is threatening to anyone wanting to voice dangers and or work place harassment. Red Maga would have immigrants locked up/dead while Blue Maga would have them back to the shadows to keep the empire internally running

    It’s a shame the library in the town I was with the sweet park is so small. That town is way more chill in regards to cops. The other town they keep moving about and they annoy me.

    Belize did something to me. It’s like that bs story about Boris Yeltsin in the US but it’s me feeling this way about the innocence of it all.

    Belize is a small country that most people aren’t even aware of. They also expelled Israeli politicians and have made great strides in their new social-democratic government and yet they get none of the political ire or really much of anything negative unless it’s Guatemala threatening to invade lol

    It almost makes me want to leave Guatemala and just live out the remainder of my life in Belize. Our org has done great work but it gets exhausting dealing with the far-right, annoying anarchists, America worshipping libs, smug adoptees, Mormon missionaries, etc.

            Central American politics are like this lol

            A lot of different parties with a small number of them actually mattering in elections. This is why coalitions are more common than in the US. One could say that the different caucuses in the political parties are the same as coalitions here.

    Remember when the people on this site made a big show of apologizing for their zionist tendencies and philosemitic supremacist moderation practices? I do.

    Yet here we are. I suspect the plan is to just mistreat people until they disappear and then pretend everything is solved.

    48 hours and no reply… the individual who purposefully made a big show of apologizing after I was banned. https://hexbear.net/comment/6556676

    What do you think I should do comrades?

      I suspect the plan is to just mistreat people until they disappear and then pretend everything is solved.

      Seems like it, since the last struggle session pointed out how the site’s racism/zionism are systemic and there isn’t anything being done to eliminate these problems from the mod team. Then I see mods/former mods carrying on their same behaviors or giving the same hottakes elsewhere on the site. They just wait until people forget or leave then go right back to having cracker brains.

            right, that’s what they say when they think they’re alone and are being honest. Everything they post here is PR fluff. The point is they’re unrepentant and refuse to accept criticism

        Its not just mods either, its systemic. Although its more disappointing from that group because from the power dynamic and ability to just make people disappear. I guess I simply assumed this platform might be capable of addressing.

        I see no reason to participate on this platform with other areas of content until or unless this liberal zionist rot is uprooted (or at the very least to not be punished for challenging it.)

      The more I think about it the more obscene the whole thing is. My postulating that there is a possibility it was false flag is now a conspiracy theory despite a long line of similar documented events.

      spoiler

      Venezuela stopping a similar false flag mere months ago. Remember when Australia expelled Iranian ambassadors right before snapback was implemented on the accusation Iran “financed attacks on Australian Synagogues”? Or how about going back in history to the Synagogue bombing in 1994 Argentina which the entire media apparatus then blamed on Hezbollah and just last December Milei’s government officially laid the blame on Iran… or the long line of terrorist attacks that Mossad carried out against Arab Jews in Iraq and other places to convince them to migrate to Palestine during the 20th century.

      But also we might ask, what is “genuinely antisemitic attack?”

      spoiler

      Either A) Its a false flag approved by John Woodcock and cronies. Then its not antisemitic, its literally a setup scheme for the Euro-american-zionist death cult.

      B) The attacker was just another Shami Arab Muslim feeling powerless and politically disenfranchised while seeing fascist Zionist cult center in his city that is vocally supporting the extermination of his people. (Questionable tactical choices aside.)

      If its A then youre playing into zionists talking points. That would be their goal, right? If its B then you’re saying Zionist death cult outposts are a protected class on the basis of their Jewishness. In other words, that a Shami Arab Muslim immigrant attacking a zionist outpost that is openly flaunting its dedication to exterminating his people is “antisemitism”.

      So which is it? Is Zionism = Judaism or is it not? They cannot have it both ways.

      Other relevant and concerning outcomes of this attack in Manchester.

      spoiler

      The police actually shot two of the people besides Jihad and one of those people died.

      An arson attack was carried out against a mosque in Peacehaven yesterday.

      Of course the fascist British state is ever mobilizing more security forces to clamp repression in light of “rising antisemitic violence.

      So why do hexbears sound like JK Rowling now?

    Liberals fondly remembering Obama and ICE being more humane when the guy in charge of ICE now was appointed by Obama. Liberals should just do everyone a favor and take a hammer to their head not like they’re using their memory or critical thinking skills anyway

      “Fondly remembering Obama and ICE being more humane… back when the guy in charge of ICE now was appointed by Obama.”

      This would be good as text in a picture. I have no social media accounts though so oh well.
