The US probably does not have the right to exist, not the way it was taken. Rectifying that today is an issue of listening to the people who were here first. The Land Back movement is how the country begins reconciling. Israels future, like The USs future should be paved with large amounts of input from the people who were there before the colonizers were.

I dont think the US has the right to exist but I also know Land Back doesn't simply remove the US from existence and the descendents of colonizers aren't going to be exiled. In much this same way I actually agree that Israel doesn't have the right to exist. It doesn't mean I inherently want them gone, it simply means they had no right to take their nation the way they did and they should be listening to the Palestinians, not warring against them. Saying things like Israel does have the right to exist minimizes things like the Nakba and many other horrific acts. These are not acceptable ways to establish countries in modern times, and the world agrees or no one would be trying to stop Russia right now.

Disney Land and theme parks in particular aren't for me but it would be very silly for me to claim I don't understand why other people enjoy them. Especially someone not from America.

This must be where they keep the gay agenda

They dont like this one but its real. Democracy doesn't work if people vote according to falsehoods they believe. Or rather Democracy doesn't care if they vote like that. Vote stupid, get stupid.

I'm confused. You asked if you would be fine to criticize the left here without getting banned and I replied to that comment answering, and now you're telling me that wasn't the subject? Why do you assume I was only talking about the users?

Any Leftist that's done any real organizing has likely worked with Anarchists. Those guys hate all states, and aren't afraid to tell your classic Marxists about how some of those very left states did them realllllly bad. I don't think any leftist whos operating in good faith has a problem with real critisizm. I think they have problems with state department propaganda lines that they have to hear and refute like every time they try to talk about any kind of Leftism.

Especially since those lines are the some of the most detracting arguements there are (probably on purpose) so most times it does nothing but obfuscate the original point and move the topic of discussion away from that point.

I dont have a problem with the phrase but I don't think ive ever heard it unironically or outisde of joking situatuons. Which is right about where the state of body positivity for men ends up.

Pro tip. Never tell people that even if someone is an asshole calling them small dicked is body shaming, unless you want all those people to instantly assume you're telling on yourself and then body shame you for that.

Thy already said rescheduling isn't going to change any federal to state inconsistencies of MJ still being illegal so dispensarys will still be unable to use banks and things like CDLs will still ban you for life from them if you get caught with weed in your system.

I mean the application isn't exactly arduous but they use capacitors in solar powered watches instead of batteries. They claim you can still get 80% of max voltage after 20 years use.

Its not just techno feudalism. Musk and Bezos trying to reinvent 'company towns' housing being hoarded and only rented, education only through massive debt. Tech is just part of it, its everywhere and should be called Neo-feudalism.

By the same people who think Trump can singlehandely start marching liberals of to camps the second he's elected. They bit right into the media rage bait sensationalism and think with their emotions. Dude couldn't even build a damn wall.

Words have meaning and we dont let people arguing in bad faith determine that meaning. Most republicans would call Biden socialist, but is he by any measure?
