/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

This is the choice that was forced onto us. The Democrats could have had a Primary and instead they chose this for us.

Are there Holocaust survivors coming out in favor of the genocide? Surely they’ve found at least one, right?

Well after so long there’s nothing left of the fragile silicon storage mediums, so as far as we can tell civilization basically ended in the late 90s as everyone moved to the mysterious “.com” which we assume to be a euphemism for death.

Hamas wanted hostages. Corpses are worthless at best and counterproductive at worst.

Is “smuggle” really the right word here? Did Iran hide them under their luggage?

The CPC still maintains a lot of influence over companies even when they’re getting their funding from private industry as part of their “politics in command” strategy for controlling market forces. We’ll see how it plays out.

This is such a stupid concept.

Every nation with currency sovereignty manipulates its currency. The Federal Reserve itself is constantly going on about the things it’s doing to change the value of the dollar and trying to address trade deficits! Yet if someone else does it it’s “unfair”

Also, how the fuck is Germany on the list? They’re on the Euro! They can’t even control their own currency! What manipulation?

This is literally just a list of countries that are doing well and America is mad about it.

@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

There are consequences for being on the list, though, so it’s not just an internal accounting term.

Hypocrisy is always in the hypocrite’s best interest. It’s for keeping track of rivals. There are no real partners.

@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Do you really think the US doesn’t view the world solely through the lens of rivalry? That’s the underlying logic of capitalism: there are only winners and losers. Cooperation and partnership are temporary arrangements of convenience, they can always change and lists like this are one of the ways the US determines who’s next.

That’s why they use such an inflammatory term like “manipulator” - it’s meant to intimidate.

It doesn’t matter if any of them present a legitimate threat, all that matters is they’re in the way.

I am certain that Russel’s teapot is not orbiting Jupiter.

If you want to hypothesize about the existence of some kind of demiurge then that’s one thing, but religions are about some really and weirdly specific gods with very specific rules and systems and laws without a shred of evidence for anything.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I do not demand evidence that Ruasel’s teapot is not orbiting Jupiter. It’s clearly not and anyone who thinks it is is a quack.

Can someone explain me USA obsession with prom and similar school rituals?

I just don’t get it… Why is that important, especially for kids now, that feel like they need to do a YouTube video asking for a date or doing some meme stuff. Some teens even hire the hottest celebrity or ask them to appear in their prom? This is so bizarre for me, all that just for a frivolous night....

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

A school dance isn’t just a date, it’s a social event. The US doesn’t really have a lot of public social rituals, so a school dance is a unique kind of social experience that doesn’t really exist outside of school. It probably wasn’t as big when there were town festivals and church holiday events where everyone knew each other, but over time the school dances have become the only thing left.

Without US enabling Israel they wouldn’t be able to wage war on Gaza and Netanyahu wouldn’t be able to stay in power.

Therefore, the US is still the main obstacle.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

It’s likely the world would abandon Israel if the US did. That’s what it means to be a world leader.

The casualty count is likely way fucking higher than the official numbers. They can’t count the people under the rubble.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it was already past 100,000

Chemical fertilizer. World population would probably be half the size without it and starvation rates much higher.

Earlier this month, the Palestinian Authority applied to join South Africa’s case against Israel at the International Court of Justice.

Yo holy shit, the PA actually standing up for itself? Could we see a reconciliation between them and Hamas? A unified government? Elections???

It’s all slipping between Israel’s fingers and their only response is to squeeze harder.

Yeah, it’s so unfair that China is subsidizing the green transition!

Also, are we just forgetting about the unfair competition from subsidized farmers in the US destroying Mexican farms and forcing them to travel north to do agricultural labor in the US?

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Uh huh, then why aren’t they subsidizing gas cars to the same extent?

Subsidizing electric cars is good and y’all need to stop making excuses.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

And yet their gas cars are not being sanctioned. Doesn’t that strike you as strange? What’s the difference?

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

So I’m not sure what you think my point was.

I’m not saying the US is attacking China for having a green transition. I know it’s just to protect business interests.

It makes sense if society has collapsed and keeping prisoners alive isn’t possible without seriously straining infrastructure, so something like a civil war, but otherwise it’s pointless. They won’t be released, so they won’t kill again, so what’s the point?

You mean IDF reservists and veterans?

True, I’ve lost consciousness due to the heat before so it’s not a safe work environment.

I guess I’d rather die than be bored.

When you’re bored every second feels like an hour.

When you’re dead time just flies by!

Americans, how do you feel about being stored in a database by government agencies like the NSA?

Every search you make, email you send, text message, voice chat, location, and most likely the conversations you have in your own home are monitored and stored in a database for whoever knows how long (probably forever). When I hear land of the free, I immediately think bullshit. We are slowly losing our freedoms, what can we do...

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Don’t act like being German gives you some kind of unique perspective. Hitler was inspired by the US exterminating it’s Native population and by the US reservation system.

There’s a clear difference between living in society and ruling that society.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Sure, but you’re implying that not being part of the ruling class absolves you from any guilt or responsibility.

No, I’m implying that the ruling class has unique guilt and responsibility, which is nontransferable to their subjects. I never said we have no responsibility. I only contend that holding us equally accountable is mystification; it obscures the uniquely horrible actions of the ruling class. They’re the ones who deserve to be tried for their crimes, after all.

By flattening society, by holding the least of us accountable for the crimes of our rulers, you actually make it harder to hold anyone accountable for anything at all.

Or do you think the Red Army should have executed all Germans because a minority of them voted for Hitler?
