The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House


China’s HSR network is (largely by necessity to make sure there is a large enough migrant workforce available to break any worker organizing)
Is there any actual correlation between HSR and labor organizing? It seems like you pulled that out of nowhere.


I don’t care about your insults
Keep saying that. Maybe you can get someone to believe it


What if China’s domestic policy is centered on public high speed mass transit, not individual car ownership?


Given the high number of school shootings and political shootings and general stocastic violence in the states, it’s more surprising that this doesn’t happen as frequently.
Kirk getting got in the middle of Gun Nut Apologia was certainly a cherry on top, though.


It won’t work. But it would be extremely funny if he’s able to wiggle out of this due to the sheer tidal wave of incompetence at all levels of government.


Didn’t Weiss round up all the people with scruples and fire them already? Or was she just firing people at random and hoping the ones with scruples would catch strays?


I care quite a bit. But, like, in the same way I care about Charlie Kirk’s neck wound.


Your insults mean nothing to me.
Spilling a lot of ink to suggest otherwise


All the other times you attacked your allies?



It’s sort of our thing
This has got to be the stupidest comment you’ve said in our entire exchange
Brother, if you don’t want to learn about this country’s history, that’s on you. But your need to scream “Stupid!” every time I say something you don’t want to hear isn’t an indictment of my intelligence, just your maturity.


That’s been the US modus operandi since Truman.
If you think this is a feasible sane approach
It’s no more feasible or sane than any of our other adventurist wars. But it’s crazy to think the Europeans are willing to play the role of Punching Bad to our Imperial Iron Fist. If the US is serious about taking Greenland, the Europeans will back out of the way. Because the US is an enormous, horrifying killing machine and Greenland simply isn’t worth that kind of heat.
The world will turn to China and trash the US economy instantly.
European reactionaries will be on the side of the US - just like Canadians were in the last election cycle - and they’ll likely eat some shit for it in the short term. But the US will continue to pump the continent full of white nationalist propaganda. The liberal European leadership will continue to let it happen. And the reactionaries will win in the end when liberals roll over a few years later.


“Shooting and crying” (Hebrew: יורים ובוכים, romanized: yorim ve bochim) is an expression used to describe books, films or other forms of media that portray soldiers expressing remorse for actions they undertook during their service. It has often been associated with a practice that some former Israel Defense Force soldiers follow.
Gil Hochberg described “shooting and crying” as a soldier being “sorry for things I had to do.” This “non-apologetic apology” was the self-critique model advanced in Israel in many politically reflective works of literature and cinema as “a way of maintaining the nation’s self-image as youthful and innocent. Along with its sense of vocation against the reality of war, growing military violence, occupation, invasion, [there was] […] an overall sense that things were going wrong.”


He’s definitely the silver lining around the turd cloud.


We always see a handful of people in the party champion the rational policy. And then the leadership turns on them like lupus. The most corrupt and despicable Democrats lynching the healthy and popular members.


How do you believe the Axis power will occupy Greenland?
Same way they do it anywhere else. A month of artillery bombardment on every hospital, church, and elementary school with a “Fighting Age Male” in line of sight until everyone in the country is afraid to step outside the house.
Send in the jackboots to take major ports and city centers, then loot the surrounding area of valuables.
Start paying half the surviving population a bounty of bread and cigarettes for every “insurgent” scalp they bring in, and set off a civil war that scars the country for a century.
Then fall back to a Green Zone and use anyone left for target practice with your latest AI powered weapons system.
Write the territory off as “ungovernable” in fifteen years, and have your retired grunts sign a multi-million dollar book/movie deal called “Snowmobile Heroes: Liberation Victory Patrol”


Lots of accounts probing the system for weakness, to be sure. But there’s just not much of an audience to manipulate. And you’ll virtually never find a Lemmy thread indexed in Google results with the high profile of a comparable Reddit thread.


Guy from Langley spending 80 hours a week posting hundreds of SpongeBob memes to convince the Wendy’s PR company flak that we need to invade Greenland for national security reasons.
