You are of course correct. My oversight.

Small Government to them is defined as not spending tax money to help people.

These are people who define big government as “spending tax money to help people”.

That’s what mixing with MDMA is for

It’s calling taking a Hero Dose

The government was shut down because they couldn’t agree to raise the limit on money they could just spend into existence.

We need an anti-flock campaign. A city government didn’t give them permission to put their cameras up and when they did it anyway, the city covered them in garbage bags before they could get removed.

When the US still had conscription, they implemented college wavers so rich and middle class (largely white) kids could avoid serving in Vietnam and only poor kids and minorities had to do the fighting and dying. Now we have an all volunteer military but since we don’t have universal healthcare or higher ed, we force our poor to serve in the military if they want those things.

Fucking cunts. Literally everyone knows that Israeli wouldn’t do shit with that aid except keep it or destroy it.

I do. It’s exactly the kind of attitude that lets Fascists take over countries. What we need are people to draw a line in the sand.

Man, I get that bro was scared but people fleeing the country is fairweather friend shit.

They sent ships to provide assistance or rescue if necessary, not to actually protect them from violence or abduction. Basically, they only promised to help someone if their ship sinks and the Italians only did that much to calm striking workers. All optics, no substance.

Considering how cheap life is in Russia, and how expensive recruitment bonuses are, I’m surprised they haven’t already switched to conscription which they have a long history of.

I’ve heard of plenty of cases were people (or their next of kin) didn’t get shit. I’ll grant that that was from the first 2 years of the war, maybe they got their act together.

If our country finishes it’s transition to fascism and I did nothing to stop that, I’ll have to own that. Inaction will lump me in with the fascists. Neutrality makes me a guilty party; for evil to triumph, all good men must do is nothing. History isn’t kind to collaborators regardless of their reasons.

No, I’m a Leftist.

These people are all willing to play shows in the US, why wouldn’t you expect them to play in Saudi Arabia? Sounds like living in denial about our own country. Like the concept of blood diamonds; money from software made in the US has funded conflict all over the globe but no one called it blood software. We used to export soybeans and used the money to bomb foreigners and no one called em blood soybeans.

Moral failings are always some other countries problem, we’re the shining city on the hill remember? /s

The buddha says that the more you have the more you want

Well, it is a thing but it’s also an integral part of being human rather than a “culture” that’s somehow new. The difference is that it’s a power wielded by the people now rather than tastemakers putting people on a blacklist.
