  • I don't know if I'm committed to this ideological line or anything but I don't think she's really wrong about that. As long as socialists are in the fringes we should be opposed to political censorship (even though it would mean the far right can gain more ground, they're not likely to be as harmed by censorship as we're gonna be) but once we have state power we should do the opposite.

    Like, for every Nazi march on Skokie that you want to grant the liberal state the power to suppress, there will be 20 more popular left wing solidarity movements that will get suppressed with the same justification. But once you've had your revolution you can freely send the Skokie Nazis to the

  • Isn't her reasoning for being really anti-censorship that if censorship became more common it would be used very unevenly against the left, even if the cases used to justify it are right wing? You know, like t_d and Chapo getting banned simultaneously.

  • Yeah that's exactly what I mean, but the sticking point is that applying his rule means anyone who says "Israel should stop existing and Palestine should be the only state in that territory" is out of line. Sure, it's because of his respect for international law (which is what makes his work as an academic rock solid) but it's still a rule that is incompatible with the realities of imperialism.

  • You're missing the point, we aren't distrusting the Venezuelan source. The question remains, if the news is fake, which part? That's what Ziggurter was asking about. The only thing the source is doing is denying the entire claim without any clarification.

  • The article doesn't actually answer his question. The article just relays that a Venezuelan official posted the screenshot with the red "fake" overlayed on his Telegram.

  • This is true but there's a lot of things I would criticize Norm for before that. If knew Noam was so close to Epstein he wouldn't have acted that way, that much is clear from how Norm acted towards Epstein and Dershowitz.

  • All my homies hate Noam Chomsky

    Jump

  • Yes. He has explained his reasoning as being based on upholding international law insofar as it holds Israel accountable for its crimes but also with the right that it grants Israel to exist. He then criticizes BDS for having their cake and eating it too, since some leaders in BDS have said that they don't want Israel to exist anymore, while BDS generally upholds international law to justify their criticism of Israel.

  • All my homies hate Noam Chomsky

    Jump

  • The lesson you should learn from Noam disappointing you is not to idolize intellectuals.

    Norm isn't a pedophile but he's transphobic and kind of a crank. He's expressed distaste for BDS on the grounds that BDS doesn't strictly endorse Israel's right to exist. He still denounces 'political correctness' which is kind of endearing because it means he's not online enough to know it's called woke now. He basically wrote a whole book lamenting how idpol and DEI are ruining everything.

  • Why do that, though? They'd ideally want a higher supply of labor that is more alienated and more repressed. IMO if they do end up reducing the immigrant population in the US they'll end up softening the policies to let more cheap labor back in.

  • Since the real deportations/day numbers have actually been lower than during the Biden years I think this isn't really cutting off their nose to spite their face; rather the point of the admin's immigration policies is more aligned with terrorizing the migrant population as much as possible.

    I've been thinking this (and saying it here) since January last year, and so far the biggest piece of counterevidence is that ICE and CBP have been arresting a lot more in cities than before; but I'd argue that since they're arresting notably fewer people at the border than the Biden admin (per one of the recent TrueAnon eps where Liz was digging into this, the total amount of detentions has stayed stable, so they're basically just doing what was being done before in different places) it suggests that they're fine with letting the same supply of immigrant labor exist, they're just willing to spend some money to make it more precarious.
