pretty fucked, can’t wait to see if Sleepy Joe can pull off a prisoner swap while tens of thousands of Black Americans rot in prison for weed possession

We’re on an explicitly radical and anti-imperialist website, nothing here has a ‘normalising’ effect.

Oh okay. If you’re “anti-imperialist” then you can never be imperialist. Just like all those people who say they’re anti-imperialist and want Ukraine to destroy Russia with the help of EU and the US.

Glad you’re so sure of yourself because that can never have an effect on susceptibility.

You’re being a contrarian and disguising it as being anti-imperialist. I could use your exact logic to browbeat people for criticizing Iran for their homophobic laws. Quit being a douche.

Yeah, that’s exactly what you should do. People in the Imperial core do not get to criticise the Imperialised nations of the world.

It’s not about morals, it’s about knowing when to shut up and not participate in the shit Imperial powers promote.

When the US lost its grip on Afghanistan the news was littered with posts about how sad it’s going to be for women in education. Do you think that was a mistake?

Yeah, my take that “conservative drug laws are bad and ultimately self defeating or just dishonest social control measures” is what’s going to push me overboard.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
