"Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is; it is the act whereby one part of the population imposes its will upon the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannon"

  • I think we need more govt subsidies to green tech and less subsidies to the fossil industry, i don't care if it's all a big 8d chess move to make us all speak Mandarin Chinese, the important bit is not dying rn.

  • The United states used military power to defeat the slavers in the south(and to get their independence in the first place), and the allies used military power to crush nazi Germany and their fascist allies. Not every use of military force is unwarranted or "immoral"

  • And they sometimes get called "tankies" too by people to the right of them. That's why I both think it's a useless term (if everybody is a tankie, then nobody is) and why I think I fall in the definition (as most leftists do, I've seen pretty mild social democrats being called "tankies" by liberals)

    Plus ultimately these blanket descriptions are pretty useless IMO, you'll find extremely heated debates between "tankies" themselves on many topics, there's no consensus, and there are many different ideologies "tankies" subscribe to. It would be like saying that Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians and Greens are all the same thing. We could call them "dronies" maybe.

  • YES

    Everybody to the left of biden is considered a tankie nowdays, and I'm proud of being to the left of (and opposed to) genocide enablers.

  • I can't say for sure but it's certainly one of the countries in the world.

  • The Mediterranean has a right to defend itself! Are you anti-seamitic?

  • No wonder, all far-right projects like his need a common enemy to unite against. If there's none, just buy one.

  • They're on that killing whistleblowers and making weapons that murder innocents grindset

  • Well, they're doing it, and there are (at least, that we know of) 8 US military bases and over 11k US military personnel on Italian soil, they killed civilians with impunity more than one time.

    For example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1998_Cavalese_cable_car_crash

    They're usually tried in US courts where they're handed a slap on the wrist and Italian courts can't do anything about it.

  • Hell naw, fuck Microsoft 🖕

  • 50% of being a Linux user is hate towards Windows so I'd say it fits

  • 😐

  • The fact that a worker who barely makes ends meet pays 10-20 times the taxes Amazon pays is... Fascinating in a dark way.

    Similar to feudal peasants that used to pay up in the form of free labor and produce, while their noble overlords enjoyed massive privileges and zero taxes.

  • Chad about to become gigachad

  • They weren't colonized that's for sure, they were (mostly) Muslim Arabs in a country where being a Muslim/Arab was normal and didn't imply you had less rights or straight up didn't deserve life.

  • Well he was world famous, I'm not from the US myself but most genX and older (~40+) knew about him and his trial at least superficially

  • We should reject the dichotomy, between 99% Hitler and 100% Hitler we must choose to actually change things and not be passive in front of atrocities. No sympathy for either one of the two sadistic parties of war.

  • His plan A wasn't even to escape to Russia, the EU and USA blocked the Ecuadorian plane who was trying to rescue him.
