I regret to make you aware of a comment above in this very thread from someone trying to do exactly that.

I don’t dislike Russians. I am also curious of your definition of “authoritarian.” I am pro-liberation and pro-revolution, both things which would require a change in authority, either the colonized or the otherwise oppressed exerting their “authority” over their oppressors. Revolutions are by nature authoritarian. Also most of those things should be reviled and are not contradictory.

Okay so what are cops?

Are cops just the ones on the beat, in uniform, harassing the unhoused, killing protestors or just innocent people caught in the gears of capital? I think most of us would say no, obviously not. There are also detectives and all manner of plain clothes officers, but there are also all the prosecutors, the judges, the DAs etc.

These are all surely also cops, right? After all, we call her Kopmala for a reason. So what about landlords then? Do they not slot neatly into this power structure? Are they not just a half step removed from that legitimized arm of violence that is the state enforcing property rights?

Can your landlord inspect your home? Can they decide on a whim to utilize that violent arm of the state to kick you out on the street if they feel that you are not adequately maintaining - or even better, improving - the value of their property?

In all of these ways the landlord is more of a cop than the DA or the judge.

Not all cops wear badges or uniforms.

Stanley Kubrick was asked to fake the moon landing and he agreed, but being Stanley Kubrick he insisted they film on location.

Rhode Island is actually the third largest state in the US but the other states are trying to keep it down.

More recent scholarship on cargo cults has challenged the suitability of the term for the movements associated with it, with recent anthropological sources arguing that the term is born of colonialism and prejudice and does not accurately convey the nature of the movements to which it refers.

1950s pseudoscience bullshit.

Did you not read that reply at all?

The Israeli plight is constantly talked about and the Palestinians are constantly demonized. How about you step back for a second and examine why you are so upset NOW at THIS incident, when far worse has been done to Palestinians for over 70 years.

“Why aren’t you adding your voice to the orchestra of pro-Zionist voices and instead trying to give voice to their victims who are largely ignored by western media until they finally get fed up with being ignored and decide to actually fight their oppressors?”

Please, I say this in the kindest way you deserve: Go fuck yourself with a spoon.

Implying that fascist apologia is something that is indicative of a “mental health problem” is ableist on its own. We can call these assholes out without resorting to these sorts of insults that might harm your comrades and most likely roll right off their intended target.

It also undermines the agency of the one spouting fascist shit and in a way removes their agency and diminishes their participation in doing said fascist rhetoric.

Saying one thing does not negate all the other things you said.

This is like, elementary level comprehension of words and linear time.

As a communist that is also of Irish descent, and absolutely loves potato based dishes, I feel like this meme is specifically crafted for me.
