@DoctorMuuro @EcoTechBro I mean somewhat. Iirc lots of Israelis are not the biggest fans of Eastern European Jews.

@EcoTechBro Agree, though perhaps a bit intertwined as it's essentially those from USA and Europe?
English
The takes I keep seeing on whether or not Israel/Zionism is principally Jewish supremacist or principally white supremacist are driving me insane, and vindicating my disillusionment with identitarian radicalism.
English
@Grogposter @AndromedaPip Like I don’t think people engage in outright holocaust denial or such, but growing up I do think some stereotypes (ie good with money, money hungry) are kind of borderline socially acceptable to joke about.
English
@Grogposter @AndromedaPip (Speaking as an American Jew here) I do agree it’s different. I think antisemetic bigotry has kind of always been somewhat socially accepted in a way that other bigotry hasn’t necessarily been, but the forms in which it manifests are oftentimes less overt. (1/2)
English
The left has an antisemitism problem. This is bad not because the feelings of Jewish people deserve special consideration, but because it means we as a movement are failing to adopt a clear-headed critical analysis and instead indulge in irrational sentimentalism.
English
@Anphoria @ColeSandick this as a whole is kind of the problem with the abolish policing rhetoric (and many others). I agree crime enforcing != policing. However try explaining this to the average voter and they’ll look at you like a crazy person. It’s self destructive to run on this
English
@ColeSandick “Policing” only exists under bourgeois class rule. “Crime enforcement” isn't necessarily “policing,” and many confuse the two. This misdefinition causes issues, and most struggle to articulate the difference, like what you’ve, and others, have been doing.
English
Everyone is responding with “policing serves capital and white supremacy.” I already know that! Policing serves capital and white supremacy because America is *already* capitalist and white supremacist, not because the concept of policing itself is intrinsically reactionary.
Cole Sandick🌹🇵🇸🇺🇦🇸🇩@ColeSandick
The merits of defund/abolish aside, I simply reject the premise that opposing cops and prisons is this intractable part of socialism that we should or should not compromise on. All the way up until like 2019 the dominant Marxist stance on policing was one of relative neutrality.
English
@Grogposter @AndromedaPip it’s also an insane argument on its face. Jews are *relatively* privileged compared to other oppressed groups so therefore we can be a little antisemetic??? Like???
English
@AndromedaPip People act like they’re being personally attacked on here when you call out left-antisemitism because “Jews in the west are relatively privileged” or whatever, as if 99% of antisemitic sentiment doesn’t eventually devolve into legitimately harmful shit like this:
English
@nagamyzuna just read what modern actual influential Russian political philosophers these days like Dugin are writing. Literal actual Hitlerites that revere some of the Nazis that think Hitler didn’t go far enough. How is this in any fashion aligned with Marxism
English
I don’t understand why left-wing sympathy for Russia is so befuddling to some people.
Disregard the USSR for a moment. Obviously, marxian socialists are going to sympathize with one of the chief opponents to American global hegemony and western capitalism.
Ryan Geddie@RyanGeddie
Conspiracy theory that leftist pro Russia sentiment is due to some endowed fund for pro-Soviet propaganda stil existing all these years later
English
@freesectionsf and having actual, literal Hitlerites helps the movement how exactly?

@underdejahvu This is a very privileged take. Palestinians are in no place to be picky about our allies. We will take anyone we can get.

@FilmThePoliceLA this is what trump was talking about when he said they’re stealing the election btw

Nithya has officially stolen the race from Rae.

@ellonico WeHo,Beverly Hills,Santa Monica,East LA,Ladera heights AND Lennox should be annexed by the city I’m so serious

Anyone with a basic grasp of the realities of armed resistance in Palestine would understand that the people who face the vast majority of the repercussions of armed resistance are the Palestinians themselves.
Much more so than any group of Israelis
owen@owen1329533
@shlumpsters We’re not facing said resistance on the ground because we’re not illegally occupying someone’s land. What are you actually trying to say here?

@michaeloburns sources tell me steyer’s path to the runoff is stable. Please god

politics knowers . . . is Steyer officially cooked?

If all the Nithya voters had just voted for Rae she’d be in 2nd place right now.

@HelenasTwinsis @Locked100plus1 @PotatoMcWhiskey you’re so right. Russia deserves a little bit of genocide bc the west has done genocide
English
@Locked100plus1 @PotatoMcWhiskey whatever russia has done, western imperialism has done one thousand times more

Is there a coherent communist position to support Russia in this conflict that I'm missing? I can understand wanting to subvert american hegemony. I can also understand viewing it naturally as a war between imperialist powers.

This is an under appreciated point, Zelensky is the most moderate leader that Ukranian politics could produce. His successors will be dominated by the veteran vote for a generation.
Vasilina Orlova (Василина Орлова)@vasilina_orlova
The next President of Ukraine could be Budanov. A younger and perhaps more radical figure. Zelenskyy was elected when a big war with Russia was predicted by outliers, such as Arestovich. Z. has been doing a great job. Point is, the next UA president will not be softer on Russia.

@electionsjoe I feel being this dumb, the world is a terrifying place but on occasion you have an idea and have a sense of almost childlike wonder at your own genius,
English
God I wish I was dumb. Imagine thinking things like this. Your life would be so stress free.
Shaggy@MAGAShagster
It appears President Trump knew California was going to cheat, and he set a trap before the primary and the election riggers walked right into it. This is gonna be good.

You don't understand Sovboom mindset. Of course they all could just say they'll go to Sochi, Abkhazia, maybe even Caspian but average Sovboom has Pavlov reflex when it comes to Crimea because "I was there as a kid and things were good then".
mowing_dog@Mowing_mosquite
@nik0p0l5 uniornically why do they all go to crimea? Caspian is right there and should provide more or less the same experience without dragon's teeth on beaches and FP-2 fly-bys

@ionicbondzzz @realjewishlarry “Mr Putin, the west has provoked us again, what shall we do?”
“Terror bomb Kyiv again, that’ll show them!!”0
English
@realjewishlarry They don't support Russia, they're just realists that understand the larger context of it, and that a Russia's "actions" are often reactions to the wests actions, and that demonizing and antagonizing Russia (which they've been doing for 70+yrs) ultimately created todays Russia.
English
Is there a reason that a disturbing number of tankies support Russia besides Russia being anti-west??
English
@soydgnrtefndr @polen_ball mfw the ukranian government supports these things so therefore we should not support the Ukrainian people in their fight against the country that is quite literally filming attacks on civilians and then joyfully sharing it on telegram
English
@polen_ball Your degenerate anime pfp having ass supports Ukraine. A nation that not only cheered on the illegal kidnapping of Maduro but is working with Palantir. Who should give a fuck about your opinion on the DPRK and China?
English
Most Reddit communist subs are so insufferable...
r/ultraleft shitposts literally get more things right than most Reddit MLs
Ask them about the DPRK or china and the only person with a nuanced opinion in the comments section will get downvoted
Not to mention the ACP sub coups

It’s not that there’s socialism in one hand and AOC style left populism in another and we somehow obfuscate and hide some ontologically ordained difference. It’s that, on a mass scale, socialism and AOC are one and the same. Regardless of whether you think that’s right or wrong, that is the mass perception and the working reality of socialism within the concrete structures of American political society. If you want that socialism to change, grow, transcend into something different, you cannot simply ignore that reality, but sharpen the antagonisms within it through direct confrontation. You must engage the reality of American socialism as it exists at a mass level even if you disagree with it. That’s all that sets us a part, we’re not willing to abstain from such an engagement and most others are.
sodom and gomorrah dsa 🔮🌹🚩🌎@purplewaves7
@keisisqrl I like a lot of Geese’s stuff, but they seem unconcerned about differentiating socialism from pure AOC/Bernie style left-wing populism in a way I don’t understand. How will you build socialist cultural hegemony when people don’t have a working grasp of socialism
