  • I will sacrifice as many Palestinian children as it takes to potentially have the hope to start thinking about a system that aims to quell fascism.

    FTFY

  • Probably quite a bit, given how the liberal mainstream media just spent 10 years refusing to reckon with this idea.

    Is Donald Trump leading a proto-fascist movement? August 28, 2015

    Trump May Be a Loudmouthed Demagogue, but Is He a Fascist? Donald Trump’s anti-Muslim rhetoric has his opponents likening him to Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler. Such comparisons may be misplaced.

    Is Donald Trump a Fascist?

  • Who's saying we are doomed to fail?

    Things are bad but this is a winnable fight with the people on our side

    This goes completely contrary to what you've said so far. Everything you've said so far makes it sound like you think this is an unlosable fight.

    There is a lot at stake here, and there's no guarantee this fascist doom spiral is just going to fizzle out on its own. The goal now is to get as many people armed as possible.

  • So then why did we have to sacrifice an entire generation to kill fascists in World War II?

  • I use jellyfin with the shield tv (tube version) w/ an lg g1 oled. No compatibility issues for all my high bitrate, dolby vision, dolby 7.1 files. However, performance of this old device is starting to get bad. Requires an occasional reset.

  • Will you be voting for Ted Cruz, or will you allow Mecha Hitler to take power?

  • So why resist them if they are doomed to fail?

    Are you watching different news than me? This "fucked" cult just coordinated over years to successfully capture the government, and started doing ethnic cleansing in short order.

    Claiming that the fascists are doomed to fail seems naive at this point in the fascist descent.

  • Visit .world before any major Western election and browse by Local (its default) and you will easily see: .world will sell out as many Palestinians as it takes to buy political time in hopes of a blue wave that is definitely going fix everything and bring America(TM) back to its wholesome big chungus status.

    Whereas ML does not want to carry out genocide to buy time for pointless political waffling, go figure.

  • The source for this article was nothing other than defector testimony and references to Radio Free Asia.

    The veracity of a news piece is only as good as the veracity of its weakest source. If you have a news story about dental work that seems legit, but then it starts referencing Chip Skylark, your alarm bells should start going off.

    Why do North Korean defector testimonies so often fall apart? Cash incentives and the western media’s endless appetite for shocking stories encourage refugees to exaggerate

  • They're due, baby!

    ICE records show Biden admin plans could give Trump a head start on deportations

    President Biden Signs Anti-Immigrant Spending Bill Reaching Trump-Era Highs

    Biden’s Emergency Funding Proposal Seeks $14 Billion for Immigration System From Congress

    Tom Homan - Border Czar was originally appointed by Obama

    Keep in mind, these democrat moves to bolster ICE were happening while the right was blatantly telegraphing their moves to immediately weaponize ICE once they took power. Project 2025 came out and promised to use ICE to plunder and abuse Americans. Biden and team then spent the next 4 years not only failing to prepare for Trump, but preemptively strengthening the mechanisms Trump would eventually use to carry out project 2025. The democrats are controlled opposition.

    Sure, maybe we wouldnt be seeing this intense of immigration enforcement if Kamala were in charge, but if she were, she'd be working behind the scenes to ensure the right had all the tools they needed when the time was right.

    The democrats are controlled opposition and the American electoral system is kabuki theater. The fascist descent is the only logical conclusion to the American political experiment- which was predicated on the wholesale genocide of Native American Indians and quickly pivoted to enslaving an entire continent.

    You realize what the only logical conclusion to your "pragmatic liberal utilitarianism" is, right? I give it 4 years before youre chiding leftists for not voting for dem candidate Ted Cruz as he campaigns against republican candidate Mecha Hitler. Youll still see nothing wrong with that. You will sell out the victims of American Imperialism to buy yourself 4 more years of political waffling - just as you did with Palestinians.

  • Dishwasher, like most appliances, are getting too smart.

    Many Bosch recommendations here, but beware that they are not above locking specific dishwasher features behind an app.

    I won't connect my dishwasher to your stupid cloud - Mar 24, 2025

    My honest advice is to go with the absolute simplest one you can find. I have a cheapo "Edgestar" washer from China that works without a hitch. It has 4 buttons. It has no wifi. It has a 3x 7-segment displays for communicating everything.

    Dishwashers have been around, and mostly unchanged, for something like 120 years. No amount of fancy silicone trays, wash modes, microcontrollers, wifi, alerts, error modes, etc... can convince me that modern companies have actually thought of anything new in this space.

    This turned into a rant.

    TLDR: a cheap one

  • Voting takes so little effort that there's no excuse not to.

    What if you have two kids under your watch and work won't let you take off?

    Voting in America is extremely difficult compared to other countries. Just saying "its so easy, just do it" overlooks the plethora of strategies the ruling class uses to disenfranchise voters.

    Also, this is all assuming ICE isn't patrolling every polling station come midterms. At that point, I dont think anyone could honestly say "voting is easy"

  • No, why would I be joking? What's the joke? Seriously, can we dive into this? What about my comment made you think I was trying to be funny?

    You're basing your opinion of a leftist org entirely on your personal internet experiences. Basing your opinion of an organization on internet experience vibes is not wise.

    Just look at their mission statement, it's even got anti-capitalist as part of their mission.

    If you think being anti capitalist is synonymous with being a tankie, then you've done a better job discrediting yourself than I ever could have.

    The SRA takes great pains to communicate the idea that they are a broad coalition of queen folks, people of color, anarchists, marxists, maoists, marxist-leninists, etc... united in the belief of anti capitalism. Their whole shtick is that any and all leftists can join united under the idea of learning about guns - regardless of individual philosophy. The fact that youre lobbing around the word "tankie" at zero hour of the fascist descent, in combination with equating "tankie" with anticapitalism, in combination with spewing FUD about one of the most successful and inclusive leftists gun rights orgs, makes it pretty clear that youre just one of the typical radlibs who aren't ready to commit to reckoning with the United States' burgeoning fascism.

  • Do tell how the SRA is "tankie".
