People who don't understand why she would pick the bear don't deserve bears.

But chinese people have protests all the time. Do you think they all get disappeared? Or did the media make that shit up so you don't feel bad about the US doing the same shit?

Shit, in 2020, we saw the biggest protests since the Iraq War (which the media didn't cover), and every single city responded by saying "You can't do that, it's illegal", and proceeded to beat the shit out of them and disappear them in significant numbers.

99% of the time, such direct actions are unnecessary as the media is very effective at shutting down criticism of the government. Just look at the coverage of student protests.

A 2 state solution was never realistic. Throwing out unworkable peace solutions or quibbling over details instead of outright saying they're not ready for peace so that they can continue violence is a US (and israeli) tactic you'll see over and over.

The US and Israel both knew Palestine was never gonna give up its best land to hostile invaders, as the borders would make their economy entirely dependent on Israel, and Israel media made it very clear that such a state would only be temporary.

Nuance isn't required here. Zionists want a theocratic apartheid state, Palestinians want a multi-ethnic, multi-religious state.

It's not Hamas bombing churches in Gaza. It wasn't Hamas who bombed Bethlehem and burned down the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve.

The fact that they're putting forum results ahead of web seems like they're just throwing in the towel on having useful web results that aren't just searching thing+reddit/stackoverflow.

If they integrated Russia into NATO/EU in the 90s instead of stripping it for parts, it would have been the end of history for at least a generation.

What about MSG, KCl, and the salts that have trace minerals?

So are we gonna see a CEO and some executives on death row? 346 death sentences, to be served sequentially, in case one of those vampires gets back up.

I mean they each protected capitalism in their own way:

FDR, being old money who'd just seen MacArthur send in the tanks to raze a camp of rebellious soldiers and knew how these things tended to go, invested in guillotine insurance via the New Deal.

Hitler and Mussolini used the other approach, privatizing/selling off state assets and applying colonial methods they'd perfected in Africa back home to buttress capitalism and protect profits.

I'm not gonna get started on Churchill.

The only way to achieve legitimacy in the eyes of liberals is liberal policy, the singular thing we are all against.

Freedom to do what exactly? To spend half your income on rent and have no hope of anything better?

America is a democracy for the bourgeoisie, and a dictatorship for us. China is a democracy for the people and a dictatorship for the bourgeoisie.
