The most relevant paragraph imo

Bernie’s coalition was filled with the exact type of voters who are now flocking to Donald Trump: Working class voters of all races, young people, and, critically, the much-derided bros. The top contributors to Bernie’s campaign often held jobs at places like Amazon and Walmart. The unions loved him. And— never forget — he earned the coveted Joe Rogan endorsement that Trump also received the day before the election this year. It turns out, the Bernie-to-Trump pipeline is real! While that has always been used as an epithet to smear Bernie and his movement, with the implication that social democracy is just a cover for or gateway drug to right wing authoritarianism, the truth is that this pipeline speaks to the power and appeal of Bernie’s vision as an effective antidote to Trumpism. When these voters had a choice between Trump and Bernie, they chose Bernie. For many of them now that the choice is between Trump and the dried out husk of neoliberalism, they’re going Trump.

It’s worth noting that “fascism” specifically is a eurocentric — or even more specifically a 20th century-centric — ideology. You could argue the US has always been “fascist”, just that the fascism has been focused on people outside it — the countries it constantly wages wars on. Still a good way to describe the direction declining capitalist states are headed to, I guess.

Again, just go back to reddit/stormfront

Reddit and stormfront should be fascist enough for your tastes then. Just go back there. An open source community will naturally have slightly better people on average.

Just go back to reddit if even this is intruding on your echo chamber too much lmao

How the US Was Forced to Remove Sanctions on Zimbabwe

Not a good sign…

I’ll see myself out

Cuba’s biggest current shortages right now are energy and building materials like cement. Both of which are directly caused by the embargo, and worsened by the recent storm.

Yeah like with how the US sanctions on Zimbabwe were forced to be removed (for the most part, anyway), this will only end by direct action and protests in the US itself.

That is, if the civil unrest in the US due to the sanctions harms profits for the capitalists more than lifting the sanctions on Cuba does, they will choose the latter.

India and China don’t trust each other much at all

Seems to be changing now thanks to this summit

While it’s technically feasible, there’s little sign most BRICS members beyond sanctioned Russia and Iran are interested in joining a common depository

And that’s why I don’t mind the talks of more western sanctions on China. They’d have more incentive to go through with this that way.

Sanctions on the other member states like India and Brazil would probably hurt their working class too much though…

Shame to see this shit from torvalds

What makes you think they support either genocidal candidate? If hitler harris wants those votes, she just has to stop supporting genocide; it’s not that hard.

Unless you think demanding someone to not support genocide is too much?

deleted by creator

Damn she should probably change her policies to not supporting genocide if she wants those votes

I won’t blame someone for not supporting a genocidal pig.

Attack on titan based analysis was not something I was expecting to see here

Lmao they banned @Objection for pointing out Zenz’s bullshit

Why can’t libs at least read the articles they link

Third time’s the charm?

the Israeli daily Haaretz reported on Tuesday.

citing unnamed sources in the Israeli military.

without citing any evidence to support the claim by the Israeli military source

I’m not sure I’d trust israeli sources, specially when it’s coming directly from its military. Could very well be war propaganda and an excuse to invade Lebanon, since that’s what they’ve been trying to do for the past few months.

Why won’t anyone think of the poor billionaires 😢
