26 civilians? That's what the illegal zionist entity kills on a slow afternoon.

diapers bad

Let me guess, you've never raised small children while also having to work full time?

Washing, boiling and drying poopy diapers is something people had the time to do back when women were expected to be full-time housewives. Unless you're proposing a drastic reduction of work hours for parents, something "just raise the price of everything" is the direct opposite of doing, you're simply cheering for life becoming harder for ordinary working class people.

You're not going to avert climate change by making things suck more for working class people. All that is going to lead to is ecofascism. A socialist alternative to climate change has to offer actual justice and a better future than the present.

Tides of History is a very well-produced history podcast that deals with ancient history. It tells history in an engaging way and is founded in recent scholarship.

Podcasting is Praxis, a funny politics podcast made by British communists.

Blowback, all the praise heaped upon it is absolutely justified. Listen to it.

We Are Not So Different, an entertaining podcast about medieval history. It has a leftist outlook on things and treats medieval people like people and avoids romanticising as well as looking down on them.

A People's History of Ideas. An amazingly detailed history of the Chinese revolution with offshoots into international Maoism. If you want to listen to an episode about how CPC safehouses worked in Shanghai in the early 1930's, this is a podcast for you.

In Denmark, the social democratic Nordic welfare paradise, universal healthcare does not cover dental care for adults. If you're really poor and have an emergency you might have some luck begging the local municipality to pay for having the offending tooth pulled out but that's about it.

The result is a wide class disparity in dental health and even people who are not poor think twice before going to the dentist, resulting in issues growing worse than they had to be.

Some private insurance exists but they are free to reject you as a customer if your dental health is already bad.

Nobody likes the current system or want to be seen defending it. The only argument that's given for maintaining the status quo is that doing the right thing would be too expensive.

Me, looking at the meme: I wonder what happened to that giant pole they put on top of the pyramid to lift the giant weight?

First person shooter but leftist instead of imperialist, with campaigns based on historical revolutionary struggles

There are plenty of shortcomings of the Scandinavian model of succdem-infested bureaucratic mass unions but they're still able to pull off something like this and make oligarchs shit their pants.

The lack of a tradition for political interference in labour relations and the large membership makes it much more politically expensive for rulers to intervene in labour disputes.

Seagulls. These fuckers shit on everything, they scatter your garbage all over the place and they're noisy.

And these tiny black insects that are small enough to get into picture frames and computer screens. Fuck then.

And that Brazilian penis fish that swims into your urethra. That im thing is just the stuff of nightmares.

You can pick a fight with a wasp and win it. But mosquitoes sneak up on you and once you notice the little bastards it's already too late.

Nope, Israel is the most diverse country in the whole region without question

South Africa is diverse and was so during apartheid. This doesn't make it any less of an illegitimate apartheid state. In fact it makes it worse.

The zionist entity actively rejects that diversity by declaring itself an exclusively Jewish state. Palestinians can live there under various degrees of apartheid but they will never be considered equal to the Jewish population.

it is also also the only democracy in the region.

The zionist entity occupies the entirety of Palestine as well as parts of Syria. On that territory lives more than seven million Palestinians. Two million of those are considered citizens of the zionist entity and although they are systematically discriminated against and harassed they are allowed to vote.

In addition to the seven million Palestinians living in Palestine, more than three million Palestinian refugees lives outside of Palestine and are being denied their right to return to their homeland by the zionist entity.

Of the zionist entity's population seven million are Jews.

Why all of these demographics? Well, of a population of seventeen million, Jews make up a minority. However while all seven million Jews are allowed to vote in the zionist entity's elections, only two million Palestinians are allowed to.

As a result result of having elections only for the elite ethnic minority, politics of the zionist entity has moved to be dominated by far right Jewish supremacists.

How democratic is that? How democratic is a state that explicitly and unapologetically declared itself to be a state for a minority of the population?

Palestinians enjoys very limited political freedoms and are severely hindered in their abilities to express themselves. They can get convicted by zionist courts for the crime of posting on social media that somebody has been murdered by the occupation forces. Even passively consuming "terrorist" media can land you in jail.

Calling the zionist entity democratic is to make a mockery of the concept of democracy. But even if you believe it to be democratic, how does that justify settler-colonialism and apartheid?

On top of that, Israel is also the only country in the region that has womens and LGBTQ+ rights written into it's law

The zionist entity is pretty unique in the world by still having miscegenation laws. A Jew and a Muslim cannot legally get married in the zionist entity. All family law is governed by theocratic and unelected conservative religious institutions, creating separate legal systems for each religious demographic, no matter whether the individuals getting married shares these strict religious beliefs or not. As a consequence, there is no such thing as civil marriage in the zionist entity either and certainly not anything like gay marriage.

All I did was criticizing the antisemitic generalization of all citizens of Israel as casual child murderers

The zionist entity is a casual child murdering entity. Zionism is an ideology enabling casual child murdering. The evidence for their evil is overwhelming. But for the people of the zionist entity you can't really generalise any more than you can with any other population of millions of people. Each of them have the same potential to be good morally upright human beings as anyone else. With that being said, election results and polls suggests that a large portion of that population of the zionist entity subscribes to deeply racist Jewish supremacist ideas. This doesn't mean that they all share these views or that those who do cannot be deradicalised or that these beliefs are essential to Judaism rather than being offshoots of western imperialism.

Opposing apartheid systems is not racist. Opposing apartheid ideologies is not racist, even if those beliefs are prevalent among a certain ethnic group.

Southern Jutland for the redneck backwardness and incest/zoophilia, the island of Lolland for the rural poverty and hopelessness.

Brussel sprouts. Lots of people hate them because they got them overcooked as children but they are so pretty and so delicious if prepared properly.

What about the failsons of failsons theory? Couldn't that apply here as well? We have an insular, self-important and self-replenishing class of politicians who have been stewing in imperial propaganda all their lives while also being insulated from any averse effects of imperial policy.

They might very well genuinely believe that the United States is a shining city on a hill, a paragon of liberty and democracy, that zionism is a noble cause and that you should never negotiate with the baddies since that'll only make them badder and since the good guys always wins in the end anyways just like in the capeshit movies.

That's my experience as well. The food my Pakistani friend cooks is amazing but when I order the same thing at a restaurant it looks delicious but it tastes like poking your tongue out the window. I guess restaurants has to cater to western palates to make money and many westoids have very low spice tolerance.

Killing children is bad indeed which is why the occupation must end. All violence in Palestine comes from there. If you don't want the violence of decolonisation, don't commit the atrocities of colonisation.

And then what happens? The imprisonment of two million Palestinians in Gaza under horrible and humiliating conditions would continue. Zionist settlers would still be stealing land in the west bank and do regular pogroms against Palestinians, backed by the stormtroopers of the occupation regime, millions of refugees would still be denied the right to return. The show genocide and humiliation would continue to the applause of white supremacist regimes of the west and their comprador puppet leaders of the Arab world

Palestinians knows very well who they're dealing with. They know they are up against a satanical racist regime backed by the most evil empire in history. Yet they choose to resist, preferring to die on their feet instead of being slowly killed on their knees. Life in the Gaza ghetto under occupation was unlivable.

I can see how someone could believe something about both of them being underdogs who are bullied by their big scary neighbours.

He'll bear witness to the suffering of Palestine while voting to give the zionist entity more cluster munitions.

Palestinian resistance: "absolutely condemn", "horrifying attack", "no justification", "it must end now"

Zionists doing Nazi shit in Gaza: "a war crime"

Fuck off you old piece of shit

What kind of parents choose to bring their children to live on stolen land in a war zone?
