I like the way you think.
Being the menshevik that I am, I would think that it’s OK to let little small time capitalists play with their sand toys, let them set up little lemonade stands and juice carts and little tavernas and what have you, so long as they’re not anywhere near society’s critical path. Low tech, low impact stuff is OK.
The more technology advances, the more convinced I become that capitalism should not be let anywhere near it
LMDE because it’s Mint and a recent Debian stable.
Is there a source for this? Who’s the artist?
I don’t know what “valid” means in this context.
Israel is a valid state that is commiting genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, occupation and other crimes against humanity.
In a two state solution, one of the two states would be Israel. And it’d better pay reparations.
In a democratic one state solution with equal rights for all, the future state will be a successor to all of present day Israel’s debts, infrastructure, institutions, etc, in the way post-apartheid South Africa is a legal continuation of apartheid South Africa.
Basically, the possible justice-oriented solutions are based on the “validity” of Israel. So, when you’re saying it’s invalid, what do you mean?
What do you think “the left” is??
Arguing for the appropriation of billionaires’ assets is not violence.
Where’s the video where he acknowledges the harm he did and he pledges to take concrete action to undo it? Has he actually even apologized?
Maybe we should abolish stock markets.
But but but then THOSE people will have them, too, and we can’t abide THOSE people having nice things.

On the one hand, Bukele is basically installing an authoritarian dictatorship here, so can we even trust these numbers? And the real big fish criminals are probably in cahoots with the regime. And of course people are getting eaten up by an inhumane, classist system that is producing a lost generation. So fuck all that.
On the other hand however, the previous situation was indeed unlivable. It was like living in the purge every day, with people living under the thumb of petty gangsters. And I’m really struggling to come up with an example of a nation coming back from this kind of collapse without some kind of Terror, in the Jacobin sense.
Like, sometimes a state of exception, a state of emergency is actually justified, and the state needs to re-establish the monopoly on violence. If Claudia Sheinbaum went Bukele against the Cartels in the north for example, would she really not be justified?
Ok folks realistically, how do democracies defend themselves against a billionaire Nazi with an army of bro-troll followers who has the US president in his pocket and is actively meddling with other countries affairs? Because this is starting to become Bond villain shit. Is the only answer an agent 007 with a special license?

Guilty milord.
Bad idea.
I don’t care, actually. Any Jewish person who is comfortable in Canada is not doing aliyah to Palestine. Good enough for me.
And pro-israeli “liberal” shills will just nod their heads along, pay lip service to condemning them, and say they want them prosecuted and sent to jail. All the while they will not lift one finger to actually do something about it. And if any Palestinian fights back they will immediately condemn them as terrorists.
Ever heard of Universalism? There is a whole church of them. They hang out with the Unitarians.
