Zionism is a settler colonial ideology that aims at creating a Jewish ethno-state in Palestine. It cannot exist without violence. You can’t colonize someone else’s land without violence, and you can’t commit this violence without rationalizing it through dehumanizing the colonized. The genocide against the indigenous Palestinians is the logical consequence of their dehumanization that spans now over more than a century.

Ah yeah I guess let’s dig out a Fox News article instead to find out the truth?

Yeah not gonna read that

You’re being downvoted on every post you do about this topic, you’ve been here for a year and you know that pretty much nobody agrees with you. I’m really wondering what’s your agenda.

Imagine this coming from Russia (which I’m sure they’d also do). I’ve always been very critical and oftentimes shocked by the atrocities that the west and western backed allies committed. But the Gaza genocide and everything around it, the gaslighting, the propaganda, the level of violence and the manufactured consent, we’re entering fascism.

It’s not like Nazi Germany yet where randos like shaserlark will disappear for criticizing the government, but we already established that we’re willing to deny human rights to our enemies. We will kill them, all of them and all of their families without thinking twice.

When it comes to our own, we will make them disappear if they’re important enough, see Assange or Snowden. Assange is out but he’s done. Snowden probably will die in exile. As for the normal people, they get denied their right to protest. Or they get beaten up and arrested on bogus charges. They get harassed at home. Climate / pro Palestine activists will end up in jail.

We’re not there yet where I will disappear for saying this, but at the current pace we’re only a couple decades away from it, if even.

Monkey cat

I am FLABBERGASTED. Big China is making this shit up, fooling us, and the average American doesn’t even notice that the government is lying to us. You’re inside the eye of the hurricane? Grow the fuck up! There is no hurricane, only weak minds. When I was young, I had to walk 15 miles to school EVERY DAY. Without shirt. And did I complain? No, because this is how national heroes are made. By sacrifice. You tell me a storm wiped away your house and the whole city is flooded? I say your mind is flooded. With weakness. I advise you to get out there and cast your vote. Trump 2024. Trump will drain your mind. You will see. And don’t say I didn’t tell you, because I did. You’re reading this right now, and you better listen to me.

You are not alone and it’s a healthy reaction to something so horrific.

Lmao thanks for the write up, definitely gonna check out ShakoMako, that sounds absolutely mad

Very interesting. How secure is this against having a compromised device? I‘m really paranoid that someone would somehow have a backdoor into my systems and snatch stuff I host on my own

I have no words for people like you who are genocide deniers. And I saw that you’re German too, ironic too given the history of your country.

I guess let’s keep genociding Gazans then?

Based on your reply to this and to the other thread I think I understand now where you’re coming from and I think it’s fair enough. Thanks a lot for taking the time to flesh out your thoughts! Don’t know what else to say except that I enjoyed sharing opinions and that I agree with your views on the system.

Eventually, whether it makes more sense to try and do a slow transition from within in order to stop the current Nazi threat, or if it makes more sense to try and push for radical change at the very high risk of simply being ignored, I honestly don’t know. That being said I think I have nothing to add to your other post and agree with it.

I understand your point about Realpolitik, but for me, it's not about what's pragmatic or what will change the situation on the ground right now. It's about taking a moral stance and being clear about what's right and wrong.

I appreciate your honesty about the German government's stance on the Gaza situation, but I think it's still important to speak out loudly and clearly against genocide, even if it won't change the situation immediately.

As for compromises, I understand that the next EU elections are a ways off, but for me, it's not just about winning seats or gaining power. It's about building a movement and creating a sense of community around our values.

I'm not interested in making compromises that would water down those values or make us complicit in systems of oppression. I'd rather be part of a smaller movement that stands for something real than a larger movement that's willing to sacrifice its principles for power.

While it's true that their German program mentions increasing income and wealth inequality as a problem, their proposed solutions seem to be more focused on tweaking the existing system rather than fundamentally changing it.

Tax hikes for the rich are a good start, but it's not enough. We need a more radical transformation of our economic system, one that prioritizes people and the planet over profits. And I'm not seeing that from Volt.

By the way, I'd love to hear your thoughts on Mera25’s proposals, such as the unconditional pension guarantee, the four-day workweek, and the universal basic dividend. Do you think these ideas have merit, or are they too radical for your taste?

But we’re not talking about the pirates or Marxists or anyone, we’re talking about Volt and what they would implement. Since they aren’t telling us what they’d do we can only speculate, and I’m telling you this is what liberals usually want. And unless Volt delivers any proof that they’re different, I’m going to assume the default.

I think you don’t really understand where the idea of a negative income tax comes from and how it is imagined. Hint: Milton Friedman. If liberals talk about UBI, they mean a Chicago style solution.

You’re getting downvoted but exactly this.

I would definitely take some selfies if I just headshotted Osama. Like they were allegedly doing some epic firefight with him inside his bedroom? Least you can do is pose with him. But no pictures at all? I smell bullshit.

Okay that was me shitposting, but seriously, if you take down Osama out of nowhere after 10 years of silence, the lack of any kind of proof is very fishy imo.

This is spot on. Fuck Mufasa fuck Simba LONG LIVE THE REVOLUTION
