So it's just "we can't abolish slavery because it will hurt all the poor slave-owners" but modernized.

It plans to replace Covid vaccine of some countries with modified version from the United States, and use these countries as the biological laboratory of United States.

Yeah, because no other country on the planet could possibly have scientists that knows anything about vaccines, right?

I'm just going to place this in the Stuff Peddled By The History Channel Rejects Of Lemmy category.

“Apartheid wasn’t that bad, actually”.

The "Apartheid wasn’t that bad, actually” crowd is by no means limited to the "conspiracy fallcy" scene in South Africa - a very, very large proportion of white liberal types in South Africa buys into this narrative without admitting to it even to themselves. There's a good reason some refer to the DA as "National Party Lite."

What some fringe politicians had promised was an emotional return to self-government, wealth, power, influence, independence.

And what they delivered instead was essentially Britain becoming a de-facto US-client state.

Gee, it's almost as if you can't trust right-wingers these days.

Sooo... the US is, once again, feeling threatened and is planning to send people to the moon to make itself feel better about it - just like last time.

My package can wait.

There is a deep irony in the fact that Israel's most rabid supporters in the west are also the most anti-semitic.

You can't make this stuff up.

Don't forget teflon...

You had your chance to provide proof to back your claims, garbage peddler... you provided none.

Soooo... you are peddling bullcrap - people in the US don't get any say in what the US military does, and you tried to pass this off as "socialism."

What is it with you History Channel rejects pushing the most inane, MAGA-level garbage on this sub, eh?

Oh... in that case, I'd like some proof that people in the US voted to invade Iraq and Afghanistan back in 2003.

Shouldn't be too difficult for a "very stable genius" like you, eh?

Taxes

Taxes? That's how the working class owns the means of production in the US military?

Am I talking to a damn chatbot here? It sure as hell sounds like it.

I'm not the one speaking gibberish... I'm just trying to be nice and speak to your level.

Is that some secret code between you and the aliens that will be coming to fetch you "any day now," Clyde?

Also, non-capitalist countries

What non-capitalist countries?

What makes me think that two countries that have never identified as capitalist

The DPRK "identifies" as "democratic" - so by your logic you should just swallow that hook, line and sinker, too, eh?

have never been identified as capitalist anywhere except

Oh, boy... are you in for a surprise - Lenin himself dubbed the fledgling USSR as "state capitalist".

Nothing new about it, Clyde.

Every one of your arguments have been blown out of the water with next-to zero effort... and yet you still pretend you're in the game.

The US military is the world’s largest socialist organization.

Oh, do please explain to us how worker ownership of the means of production works in the US military.

Wait, don't answer yet... I quickly have to get some popcorn. This is going to be good.

Do you know what the word "proof" means, tankie?

Proof, tankie. Proof!

The thing is, you're going to need actual leftists with a lot of experience in right-wing narratives to do that... liberals can't. They only recognize right-wing narratives when it's far, far too late - if they recognize them at all. That's what the Bartender's Rule demonstrates - you can't allow right-wing ideologies to hide behind "respectibility politcs." If you do, the right-wingers have already won.
