Weird, I could’ve sworn it was the embargos that caused that.

It’s almost like all the engineers and scientists were killed by Japan during WW2.

Capitalists tell you to work and starve

Seems like a good time to lift the embargos so they can fix their infrastructure.

I read that as the peen is mightier than the sword and giggled

I’m pretty sure the answer is no.

Most people that vote third party wouldn’t vote otherwise. Assuming that every vote for Jill Stein would’ve gone to Hillary is quite the assumption. I always vote third party, so assuming my current vote for Jill Stein would’ve gone towards Harris instead is just dumb and wrong.

You suck

That video literally shows the people that’re rioting and throwing Molotovs at military vehicles. This is also outside the square. Tankman is also the day before the riots and the tanks are leaving the square, not going into it.

I mean, if you need a legit journalist saying it, here’s a Western journalist that used to work for the Washington Post:

But, ultimately, there’s not going to be a new York Times article saying that China didn’t slaughter people for no reason because that’s against their goals as Western journalists. I guess you’d just have to believe that the news lies about things. But I guess you believe that the news always tells the truth and that they’re infallible.

What a funny way to ignore information that counters your viewpoints.

Well I can’t exactly quote CNN for you to show you the counter to Western propaganda, can I? Tell me a “legit source” that isn’t skewed by Western media.

I’ve lived in the Tampa Bay area my entire life, never evacuated before, and I left last night. Fuck Milton. Not worth riding this one out.

Because propaganda is effective.

This was just a ploy so he could kiss some hot models.

Vanya did transition to Victor in the show.

I mean, yeah. The only way to reform the system is from within the system. Here in lies the ultimate issue with the left: all I ever hear is criticisms and no solutions. We have two options, reform or revolution. Revolution is nearly impossible. So if it’s reform, people need to be elected into the system to make the changes. There is no reform without elections. Even if we were to organize something big like a general strike, it would only make the bourgeoisie afraid. Real changes are legislative and that means elections. Unless you’ve got a better idea, in which case, please share with the class.

Getting a third party to win is the first step into breaking the US political duopoly and fixing the broken electoral system. The first changes a third party will make is regulations that allow third party wins in the future. It’s about making progress towards the left. Democrats do not represent progress, but an upholding of the same tired political duopoly that gives capitalists power. The green party, regardless of whatever ideals you still hate about them, are very intent on changing the electoral system and ending the duopoly.

They use that argument because it’s valid and holds weight. The only other option besides bringing in a third party with ballot access is violent revolution and that was a lot cooler of an idea before drones existed.
