(I actually have no idea if this is a communist party, or a party at all, or real)

Edit: apparently this is a PatSoc group run by Caleb Maupin. So fuck these creeps. Still find this statement funny tho.

Edit - MORE STATES seems like they are planning multiple state rallies so check em out if onenis around /E

I don't know much about the org, but this is when we need to organize gain community, build networks of allies and comrades. Most likely there will be liberals and those trapped in the there as well.

Thier donate button did NOT go to NGPvan or Actblue so I take that as sign of legit grassroots. Then again I need to see what they are doing. Going out of my way to be there in person is the only way to vulcan mind meld with them to find out and maybe spread some love.

They say it will be a rally rather than protest. So it is hopeful more productive rather than screaming into the void. Grassroots AROUND the party to sue and drag them kicking and screaming is how we got gay rights. Unfortunate it's come to this but we're going to have to do it with trans and nb rights as well.

Tags: Trump; standing lessons

Make no mistake, I found out some unfortunate (and yet unsurprising) facts about how the Danish treated the indigenous population of Greenland and would absolutely support Greenland becoming independent if that's what they chose (or even part of America if that's what they choose), I'm not under the illusion that the Danish did anything but invade and colonize Greenland.

My lib colleague however was wondering why Greenland doesn't belong to America as it's closer to America; his first thought wasn't 'why isn't Greenland independent', nor (going along the lines of which country it's closest to) why isn't it Canadian, but instead why isn't it American. My colleague coincidentally doesn't believe he's been heavily propagandized, he believes he's reached his opinions organically. He doesn't even stop to wonder why he's thinking 'why isn't this landmass or that landmass American'. This guy despises Trump, and yet on a matter he didn't care about several weeks ago he's now finding himself agreeing or at least seeing some common ground with Trump on.

The libs are a lost cause. Some folks here say they were libs once but the difference is that because you were rational, or because you lacked knowledge you were libs; most libs on the other hand won't let new information or objective thought change their views (and I know you guys hate the idea of objectivity, but I mean it in the sense of asking/wondering from a neutral position on matters; a neutral view on Greenland would either lead to supporting them being independent (if they wish it) or supporting them being part of America PROVIDED they wish it). Just flat out expecting this place or that place to belong to America is....well, Imperialism, and this view is coming from a place of instinct at this point.

that was an accusation leveled by bitter crypto dipshits, and everyone just took them at their word? maybe the price just tanked because it's a fucking memecoin and crypto is inherently unstable

not saying this to defend her - I despise anyone who would launch a cryptocurrency for any reason and I curse her and her family to ill fortune for 1000 years - but it would actually be way cooler if she did scam these losers (which is why I don't think it happened)

anyway this is the least consequential thing ever and I'm sorry for posting about it but it kind of bothers me that most people just went along with the crypto-bro narrative

I just moved across the atlantic for a civilian Federal government job that is honestly pretty fucking awesome and fulfilling job and 4 days in I’m worried about whether this dickhead is going to fire every new employee in the entire government. Spent all I had to come to rural Northeast lol

How else will people accuse us of being "CCP bots" if we don't even have "comments" and dates/times translated to Chinese?

An essential tool for finding that perfect individual strip from the greatest comic ever created.

insurance companies will use cryingliberal.gif in their ads, set to little dark age, erika, and tom macdonald. the wendy's account will start saying racial slurs entirely unprompted. amc will start screening lady ballers indefinitely. there will be an official spongebob cryptocurrency (immediately rugpulled). new york times will consult licensed phrenologists in their exposé of sweet baby inc. a24 will make a mussolini puff piece and it will win best picture. you thought black square posting was insufferable, wait till white square posting happens

I feel like the 2010s are the first decade in 100 years that doesn't have a recognizable aesthetic or vibe.

Every decade since the Roaring Twenties had its own recognizable culture, visual aesthetic, music and so on. In the 2010s, the Internet allowed us to become cultural omnivores. It's good that everybody had access to whatever niche subculture they enjoy but it also meant that there was no more monoculture that we all shared.

Collaborating with an oppressive colonial force is always evil, doing so in the middle of a genocide and frankly they're lucky they were only shot.

The collaborators were responsible for stealing food and selling it, and taking a sponsorship fee from the drivers, and geolocating Palestinians to help Israel kill them. These people are lucky they were only shot.

2400 aid trucks have now made it into Gaza (in just four days), compared to when the collaborators were most active during the genocide. Those collaborators were directly participating in the active starvation of the Gazan people.
