Maybe because it’s the instance that hosts the largest pro fascist-coup gov community. Everything I’ve seen from it at least seems to enforce that stereotype

Arcturus ,

It’s exactly what its description says

You can go and ask Hexbear users themselves about it on their general megathread

Arcturus ,

It’s a strictly leftist instance lol (even more so than dbzer0), of course they’ll ban liberals and other right-wingers (and your removed comments seem to be complaining about pronouns for some reason?)

Disagree about there not being good discussions on it; I regularly see the more interesting discussions on Lemmy on that instance, so long as you’re acting in good faith.

Arcturus ,

Why do you feel the need to make this racist

Arcturus ,

Now can they stop being a NATO dog?

Ig we’ll have to wait for Erdogan to fuck off for that to happen.

A bit surprising that “israel” didn’t vote against it, but that would be a bit too on the nose I guess.

Arcturus OP ,

Dang didn’t realize that’s what it was referencing

Moscow may be able to address the continent’s urgent security demands through arms sales that exceed Washington’s capacity

Happens when you deindustrialize your own country to crush working-class movements

Arcturus ,

Yeah, it’s terrible how capitalists and their megacorps might not profit as much if that’s happening…

(which it isn’t these days btw; countries like the US and China violated bullshit british IP laws when industrializing, and they don’t really need to do that once they are industrialized)

Arcturus ,

That’s included in the “industrializing” part, no?

Under capitalism, industrialization and therefore “market domination” realistically means ignoring the laws meant to keep competition down.

Arcturus ,

The U.S. official said Israel notified the U.S. in advance. “We were not surprised,” the official said.

I thought they were at least gonna continue pretending they don’t want a regional escalation?

Sanctions have been a blessing for Russia and China. Seems like they just make massive economies more self-sustaining and global south-oriented.

Arcturus ,

Lmfao this is the funniest thing I’ve read all week. What alternate universe are libs living in?

When/if a civil war or working-class revolution ever reaches the heart of the imperial core — the US — it will be after most of the world has overthrown capitalism to become socialist (assuming capitalism doesn’t kill us all by climate change or a nuclear war by then), not at the start of a hypothetical major war.

Biden vows G7 response, ‘ironclad’ US support for Israel after Iran attacks (www.aljazeera.com)

US President Joe Biden has condemned Iranian attacks on military facilities in Israel, pledging a coordinated Group of Seven (G7) diplomatic response while highlighting the United States’s help in taking down “nearly all” of the attacking drones and missiles....

Arcturus ,

US is gonna go to war against Iran aren’t they? And over something as stupid as protecting israel’s genocide.

First Thought made a great video on what that could look like

Arcturus ,

Yeah I also thought for a second I had somehow missed a fucking nuclear bombing

The highest managerial authority under the Taean system is the party committee. Each committee consists of approximately twenty-five to thirty-five members elected from the ranks of managers, workers, engineers, and the leadership of “working people’s organizations” at the factory.

Damn alot of good things happening for Linux adoption recently huh

Love how this is the one comment @UsernameHere doesn’t reply to lol

Wonder why…

Arcturus ,

toots.matapacos.dog is a general leftist unity instance including anarchists. Though I’m not sure if they allow NSFW.

Arcturus ,

Of course the US will only allow negotiations with a “Palestinian” org under israel’s control

China is already on track to producing the most nuclear energy out of any country, and is the world leader in green energy already.

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/e643c7f6-1df9-4372-bd2b-65b944cf3c4f.png

It’s just that they have such a massive population, are highly developed yet are still developing, that this still isn’t enough to meet their energy needs.

The region doesn’t rely on the US, the post-2014 fascist government that doesn’t care about the wishes of eastern Ukrainians does.

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/751d49ba-540b-4b79-bd47-8c00d986c2e2.png

There wasn’t a problem here until the US-backed coup in 2014 and subsequent killing of eastern Ukrainians and Crimeans (if you’re wondering why Crimeans overwhelmingly support Russia) by the coup gov for resisting, which also doesn’t respect the Minsk agreements to stay neutral.

Feel free to point out what you disagree with.

Gaddafi’s is just sad. Such a terrible decision to give up their nuclear deterrence and trust western governments.

Nukes are why the DPRK hasn’t been invaded again, and why it hasn’t ended up Libya is now.

You mean insurgents funded by the west after having them give up their nuclear deterrence because it posed a major threat to capitalism/imperialism in the region.

Libya went from one of the poorest countries in the world to having the highest human development index in Africa by 2010 under the socialist government. Housing and healthcare were made a human right and youth literacy reached pretty much 100%.

Yes, I’ll have sympathy for the country that was basically extorted by the west through brutal sanctions into disarming itself so it could be invaded and destroyed, as any human should.

defaulting to the cheapest and worst

Fortunately we’re moving towards not defaulting to imperial core countries anymore.

We’re moving towards a country that has lifted 800 million people out of poverty so far and prioritizes workers over capitalists.

US says Israel has not violated international law during Gaza war (www.aljazeera.com)

After Israel killed seven aid workers in Gaza, the US says it has not found any incidents of Israel violating international humanitarian law in the past six months. An Al Jazeera probe concluded the World Central Kitchen vehicles were deliberately hit.

Arcturus ,

Love that americans are still worried about elections of all things as if anything other than organized violence will stop a capitalist government from committing genocide.

Arcturus , (edited )

“Israel” is a US colony; it’s entire existence hinges on the latter.

Its formation used common british colonization tactics [III], with companies literally named “Colonization Commission”, “Jewish Colonial Trust” and the like.

Theodor Herzl, founder of the colonial ideology he called “zionism”, was himself also just a racist colonizer by his own admission, and saw it as bringing ‘civilization’ to ‘barbarians’ as the rest of Europe did when they were colonizing and enslaving Africa and Asia:

“We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence.” Source [II]

Only difference now is that the US has been the de facto leader of the imperial core since WW2, no longer UK in Europe.

And capitalist governments work for the interests and profit of capitalists rather than workers as is the reason for the genocide here (keeping the middle east unstable and unable to unite against imperialism with a colony right in the middle of Africa and Asia), so yes that does matter.

The government does not represent you since you’re not a capitalist, so trying to change something as massive as a genocide through it is pointless, specially when the only other option is just as bad, if not worse. The only thing that will change it is organizing and pressuring it from the outside.

Rather than “intervening” like you want other countries to do against a nuclear state, has the US considered not directly funding and facilitating the genocide?

And Russia has a long and ongoing history of supporting Global South countries’ sovereignty against US and its proxies’ agression, even after the USSR has been overthrown and taken over by capitalists. So this isn’t surprising.

Arcturus ,

What the fuck is their endgame here? They’re antagonizing the entire fucking planet

Arcturus ,

They’re basically telling Iran to wage war on israel…

Arcturus ,

Don’t think downvotes should be a thing tbh. Just enforces majority opinion even when it’s wrong.

Some instances like Hexbear, Reddthat and Blahaj have downvotes disabled though.

It just gets worse the more you read (suppo.fi)

Reading about the current events got me looking into the history of Palestine and Israel, and I noticed a lot of Israel’s politicians (like Yitzhak Shamir, Menachem Begin, and Ariel Sharon to name a few) were Zionist terrorists (using the word literally, not subjectively) since before the establishment of Israel. The groups...

Literally everything we know of is already inherently political, on account of being perceivable by humans.

ideology of National Bolshevism

That’s just nazis calling themselves “socialists”, the same way nazis call themselves “national socialists” while actively killing socialists.

Arcturus ,

Management/governance of things having to do with humans, which is everything that we know of.

Late reply but the fact that people keep pets at all is also a very political subject.
