71·9 days agoThe politics that support minorities and marginalized groups in America still throw untold millions of people into the furnace abroad.
And the politics that oppose minorities and marginalized groups in America throw more millions of people into that furnace abroad.
You could argue that supporting a particular US government throws fewer people into the fire, but your still choosing who deserves to be saved.
You’re absolutely right, if you can’t save everyone, we should celebrate saving no one. More dead American minorities, more dead Palestinians, more dead Ukrainians, more dead folk in Developing Countries; killing as many marginalized groups as possible for the benefit of fascist elites is TRUE left praxis!

10·12 days agoI suspect the specific biomechanics of it change, but the general principle helps to get a starting point for figuring out human-applicable techniques. It was a very cutting-edge field at the time, after all; any advantage or pre-existing applicable work was welcome!
Explanation: In the Greek mythic figure Hercules’ battle against the Nemean Lion, the lion was invulnerable to weapons. So Hercules killed it with his bare hands. Some depictions may look familiar to those who have had to give their cats medication.
Afterwards, Hercules wore the lion’s pelt on his head as a form of armor. Since it was, well, invulnerable to weapons.

4·1 month agoI’ll campaign for her as hard as I did for Bernie - and I was whole of body when I first campaigned for Bernie. I’ll break what remains of this body if it means increasing her chances of victory incrementally.
But we’ll have to survive 'til then. That’s not guaranteed, unfortunately.

Based Inigo Montoyo, at least.
In a July 2025 New York Times interview with his wife Grody, Patinkin was critical of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policies during the Gaza War, arguing that his actions are “endangering the Jewish population all over the world” and that “to watch what is happening, for the Jewish people to allow this to happen to children and civilians of all ages in Gaza, for whatever reason, is unconscionable and unthinkable.”[64][65][66]

1·2 months agoThe Black Panthers weren’t even formed until the greatest victories of the Civil Rights Movement had already been won, and for all of Malcolm X’s rhetoric before leaving the Nation of Islam, the threat of violence from Black Nationalists was not a core factor to the victories of the Civil Rights Movement.
MLK Jr. spent nearly a decade and a half building organizations and connections for nationwide resistance.
The graph is saying “As millennials get older, the debt increases”
Time axis, but millennial focused
The meme became very widely used outside of /pol/ and rarely criticized on ‘racist’ grounds.
I’m guessing you don’t go to many country music festivals.

Maybe it’s my inner straight male talking, but I don’t see nearly enough girls in American flag bikinis and cowboy hats in this country.
I once went to Texas and got complimented on my sombrero, though.
I mean, other than some folks jumping in to defend the honor of the
Fatherlandhelpless foreign country which needs terminally online Americans to defend it, I don’t really know that there’d be a big difference in reaction.There’s not much here that’s… actually offensive unless you really try to read into it? “Ha ha, debt goes up, major restaurants, car type that’s fucking everywhere despite no reason for it, overused national symbol, food additive, regional hat, flag bikini, national obsession”
I guess the diabetes bit?
I don’t really know that an Argentine drawing the same tongue-in-cheek style pic with inflation, whatever national chains are prominent, vehicle jokes, regional dress, a national-team shirt, and a soccer ball would really get a majorly different reaction.
