  • west is cooked man, making people keep their cat indoors is good because they wreck the local environment but what is actually getting this person to do this is dumbass private property law

  • am not a Marxist

    they'd be aghast but also weirdly appreciative? i stg >95% of their ranting online consists of complaining about people distorting marxism or whatever lol

  • i fall in the camp of "un vote doesnt matter but it makes more sense for china and russia to abstain than veto in this particular situation" tbc. i also think you can criticize them for their moves in the months and years beforehand allowing to get to this situation, but like i said even offering that up as criticism was not enough for most of these people crashing out

  • yes, i kind of tried to point that out in my comment, that these teachers working in schools with working class kids complaining about them are usually also working in the extremely underfunded schools which "just so happen" to be primarily attended by racial minorities (i.e. if these are real teachers many of them are probably huge racists using dogwhistles)

  • you seem to know this kind of logic is usually used in excuse of eugenics towards minority populations so why are u still repeating it here?

  • yes, but this decline in literacy has been ongoing long before iphones and tiktok and what not

  • Did Hamas actually ask China to veto it?

    maybe. there is argument about what was said pre-vote. they were urging for the resolution to not be passed, but russia did put forth a different resolution that got shot down. they were urging for the american resolution not to pass. you could read this as them trying to pressure PA and the arab compradors to go with russia's plan. or you could read it as them calling for a veto of the american plan if it came down to that.

  • should i blame the government for forcing huge classrooms of working class children on me instead of either increasing their parents' wages or instituting universal pre-k?

    no, it's the parents fault for being evil (because they're poor!!!)

    • average "teacher" on r/teachers

    (god i hope 99% of the commenters on there arent actually teachers)

  • there are actually a couple of comments i saw pointing this very thing out (buried ofc because only reactionary screeds against children gets u 100s of upvotes), but yeah r/teachers is terrible about just shitting all over children like they're subhuman or something, i really hope most people on there arent actually teachers and are just bots/reactionaries making shit up

  • these particular commenters were going off middle schoolers/high schoolers i believe, however i wouldnt be surprised, they were complaining about the amount of "handholding" in society keeping kids from doing sports or whatever. it wasnt all bad, there were a few commenters accurately pointing out that it was more likely how expensive it was and wealth inequality, and even a couple pointing out that the "laziness" people are seeing from kids is actually probably rational apathy towards the system's obvious decay that they can see every day on their phone screens, but those comments arent shitting on some of the most vulnerable members of society so they arent getting showered in 100s of upvotes

  • if im being generous i think they are allowing their despair at the situation in gaza to cloud their judgement. but still very frustrating to see from people claiming to be "serious" marxists

  • i would take anything from reddit with a grain of salt, and anything from r/teachers with an even bigger grain of salt. this is not to say that computers/the internet arent in some way hurting children's development but i think there are a lot of lies said on r/teachers because it confirms people's biases and gets a shit ton of upvotes

    edit: i mean seriously. that place is a reactionary shit hole, clicked on thread and am immediately seeing comments with 100s of upvotes blaming these kids for having "zero work-ethic" and no "grit" and how they're being given too much grace blah blah blah

    edit 2: got to original comment, and important context that even if this is true, the person in the screenshot says they are working in an extremely poor area. however, also still probably a reactionary shithead

    My good faith read is that many parents are overwhelmed and burnt out. I teach kids from working poor families. Folks are maintaining two or 3 jobs, pulling 10 hour shifts, and doing it while being a single parent to multiple children.

    My bad faith read is that some of these parents are just outright neglecting their kids and know teachers will pick up the slack because we have no other choice. If we want them to learn, we have to teach them the basics their parents didn't teach them first.

    commenter isnt even mentioning that their school is absolutely extremely underfunded and probably defacto racially segregated

  • Did anyone expect China, notorious for "minding their own business" to an extreme degree, even when it's morally wrong, to go against every single Arab country and the internationally recognized Palestinian government who even Hamas still treat as somewhat legitimate to avoid fracturing the Palestinian state?

    . some of them are just annoying maoists/trots/leftkkkomms pretending to be outraged, but like i said i had people i was following i thought were generally level headed crashing out over it. at one point i saw a thread arguing about the "chinese century" memes...? like just truly juvenile and rancid stuff everywhere

  • LOL. essentially people started crashing out over the UN vote like i said. people pushed back. even ones who were saying u could criticize china for other things were getting called "parasocial cheerleaders for china" for disagree that china not vetoing proves that china is actually also a main opponent in the genocide of palestine and is an enemy of the global south and blah blah blah. then u got this mamdani stuff and people who were crashing out over china are then defending mamdani being chummy with trump with some of the most spectacular mental gymnastics, etc etc etc. it's just been nonstop fighting and dunking even beyond what i usually see since the vote

    to better sum up the amount of absolute shit on the TL, i will upload something written by someone dismayed by the behavior in "decolonial marxism" twitter, which i think is an accurate microcosm of the meltdown going on in the rest of "left" twitter:

    We are a joke and it is unacceptable

    i didnt personally witness these interactions but another account i follow said they were giving up trying to be friendly with anyone on twitter and that roderic day had the right idea of being extremely abrasive on twitter, which if u are familiar with roderic day i hope u can imagine the kind of shit that twitter user was going thru for him to decide he should start trying to imitate roderic day's behavior on twitter lmao. i do feel pretty bad about it though because ive always really liked the (nice) twitter user and he said people were using things he had revealed in private about his mental health to berate him and just... wow.

  • if the point of the satire is to criticize what you're satirizing but the audience largely doesnt actually see/agree with the criticism, can u really call it good satire?

  • i managed to prune it mostly to be less exhausting until like i said even level headed accounts i follow were crashing out

  • awesome art comrade!

  • Sanders would have faced the same obstacles too if he were to be elected as president (and at that point, you can be sure that he has been 100% compromised by the establishment).

    from my understanding the plan was sanders was going to use the bully pullpit to try and send crowds of people at whoever was stopping his agenda. why he totally gave up on this after losing in 2020 and started cheerleading the democratic party is the real mystery
