“parental rights” is usually just code for instilling bigotry or other abuse

yes, and right wing politics are the politics of the ruling class.

IQ is not useful as a measure of intelligence, even on a mass scale. It is fundamentally bullshit

“Conservative” is not a political ideology, it is a branding term. The Democrats and the old guard of Republicans are both Liberal parties. This is why establishment DNC fights their own party’s left wing more than the Republicans, as they represent an actually different ideology. *The TEA party/Trump folks/ conspiracy RNC is a Fascist political movement

sure, but I don’t really want to deal with the “Saying both sides are the same is literally voting for Hitler people” rn

they are not “centrists” they are “fascist collaborators”

the death penalty should exist exclusively for politicians using there position to entrench themselves in power

the word for these kinds of Democrats is collaborationist

Patriarchy is pretty much the entire platform of conservatives

really the only actual use-case for AI

the return of landlines is nigh

I was thinking of British TV when I posted that so not too surprising if its mostly a thing there.

All of our street cops are also carrying guns around, which (if I’m not mistaken) is not the case everywhere.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

The very facy the Dems won in an election is a demonstration that they weren’t battling fascists yet.

Trump and crew literally attempted to overturn the election and the Dems did next to nothing. If we can’t recognize fascist actors before they’ve fully seized control of government then we will never have effective resistance to these types of movements.

people aren’t saying that Kamala wasn’t the lesser evil. They are saying that running evil candidates suppresses voter turnout and that doing so is a loosing strategy (unless doing evil is your gole, like the GOP)

If the Democratics run Harris or New some I might actually lose my mind. have we learned nothing from the past decade?
