"Some comrades love to write long articles with no substance...Why must they write such long and empty articles? There can be only one explanation; they are determined the masses shall not read them. We are in the midst of a war. We should learn how to write pithier articles."

This is probably the Mao piece that gets overlooked the most if not outright ignored.

Keep sharing. Still no help on this.

I’ve got another fundraiser for an Inuit family here in Alberta. They’re going to be getting disconnected soon if they don’t get this in. I blocked out all the account info. $84 needed. They’re behind after traveling to attend a funeral in NWT. Plz help. PayPal.me/KabulAdam

@julsgars810 @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis i don’t think anti-Zionism should come with preambles that only pander to people who just end up being liberal Zionists, and will call everything antisemitism—it decentres actual Zionist victims. as for the Sam Harris thing, i just think you’re being pedantic for pedantry’s sake.

@antrbl @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis Sanding over nuances in the way that you are is stupid as fuck.

Less insane when you realize it’s the exact same phenomenon

It's actually insane how the counter culture shifted from Reddit atheism to Christian nationalism in just a decade
English
@thotmikli @julsgars810 @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis that’s partially the point of this entire thread. Christian nationalism and New Atheism (or “Reddit atheism”) are fully aligned in manufacturing consent for imperialism and anti-immigrant rhetoric. in fact, New Atheism made way for Christian nationalism to flourish today.
English
@antrbl @julsgars810 @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis It's only perceived to attack Muslims more because the only other group that attacks Islam are far right fundamentalist Christians, which New Atheism also hates.
That being said, raw hatred was never good for convincing people of secular values so it was still a misstep.

@julsgars810 @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis what i said is i think ultimately, it only obscures from the fact that Zionism is the most dominant strain of Judaism when it matters most. anything else, and you’re extrapolating something i did not say.
English
@antrbl @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis The fact you don’t think the Zionist/ Jewish person distinction matters is extremely telling on your part.

Malala’s biggest crimes are believing liberal feminism will liberate women, and not denouncing the co-optation of her genuine activism and work by American imperialism when she has long since had the chance.
SJS_monitor@SJSharks_fish
@qjxikqdwjzsf4 Malala's biggest crime was being a woman who stood up for women's rights.
English
@julsgars810 @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis i disagree—the distinction feels very similar to the distinction people often make w/ Zionism and Judaism. ultimately, it only obscures from the fact that New Atheism and Zionism are or were the most dominant strains of their respective umbrella categories when it mattered most.
English
@antrbl @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis Me. I agree that a lot of modern new atheist figure heads are Islamophobic, but it’s not their atheism; it’s their western chauvinism. That distinction matters.
English
@xingyuelvr @britpak77 on the first part, i think you’re just arguing semantics tbh. as for the glazing, i think from a historical standpoint, it’s not wrong to point out that Islam was progressive in recognizing certain rights of women.
English
@britpak77 legal systems and religions can protect or restore rights, but they don't invent them. human rights exist inherently because of our shared humanity, any laws put simply recognize what should have been protected all along, so islam shouldn't be glazed for doing the bare minimum.
English
@julsgars810 @bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis New Atheism has been the most dominant brand of atheism that has, for so long, only served to dehumanize primarily Muslims in order to manufacture consent for imperialism, and that now contributes to today’s rampant anti-immigrant rhetoric. who gives a fuck about the semantics??
English
@bilbosfootcomb @Seymour_Lolis That’s not because he’s an atheist though, disingenuous comparison

$1.8 million to foster “dialogue” with the murderers of Palestinian children.
$25 billion for Ukraine.
That, in a nutshell, is Canada’s commitment to peace and human rights.
Anita Anand@AnitaAnandMP
Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia are launching a new International Peace Fund for Israelis and Palestinians. Canada is contributing $1.8 million over three years to support initiatives that foster dialogue, build trust, and strengthen civil society engagement. By investing in those working to bridge divides, we are helping lay the foundations for a lasting peace where Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace and security.

@jinchuurii @BakshyK That doesn’t make someone a racist it makes you an uneducated dunce making asinine assumptions.

@r281s_ @Xjeel19 @luffvmz this is what i mean when i call you an unquestioning slave. i may not have as much power as the ruling class (the wealthy), but the difference between us is that i believe the exploiters and oppressors should be dethroned & political/economic power should be equal among people.
English
@r281s_ @Xjeel19 @luffvmz i think if you're told something repetitively, and everyone around you unquestioningly trusts it, it becomes harder to question things simply because that's what you're used to. this is your version of the divine right of kings--it's meant to keep you passive against wrongdoing.
