You guys always make moderate to center left politicians sound so much cooler than they really are.

Heartening after all the interference the US and its oligarchs threw at this election.

>They are not the ones who has to bear the financial responsibilities of the company.

When the company does poorly, who ends up hurting more? Is it the workers that get laid off, the executives that get another bonus, or the owner that remains a billionaire?

I agree, that's why Iran is correct to arm and defend themselves against Israel and the US.

Coming as a shock to only the most gullible people on Earth.

lol, "your people." I've seen enough of you guys in real life to know what lies behind the bold Nazi larp online. Meek, resentful, small men. You may piss your pants at the sight of a non-white person, but 99% of people don't. Nothing you hope for or think is going to happen will happen. The world you yearn for never existed and never will. Much like every other fascist movement in history, the current one will only be remembered as a pathetic failure.

The only lunatics in this scenario are the ones executing people in the street and dragging children out of their homes and into concentration camps as well as the people who think that's all reasonable. It's entirely reasonable, and right, to resist them.

"They are actively committing a crime against the citizens of the US." What crime? You are confused if you think being an undocumented immigrant is a crime in it of itself. It's not, despite the right's attempts to paint them as "illegal." And, even if it were a crime, that doesn't suddenly make it "evil" or something that victimizes the "citizens of the US." The law is not the arbiter of good and evil, and very often it's on the side of evil. Miscegenation was a crime. Sodomy was a crime. Those acts were no more evil then than they are now.

"There are tens of millions of people in the country illegally. They must go."

Why?

Those all seem pretty reasonable given the current environment? Are Epstein and his associates not pedophiles? Are minorities not allowed to exercise the second amendment rights the right champions for themselves? Is it unfair to call someone cosplaying for a social media account that regularly posts repurposed Nazi slogans a Nazi?

Whiteness is a 19th century concept designed purely to exclude certain, typically immigrant, groups. It’s why Irish, Italian, or Slavic people weren’t historically considered “white,” or why white supremacists today can’t agree on whether Hispanics, Jews, or Indians are “white.” It’s entirely arbitrary. They could have just as easily made a racial category based solely around hair or eye color.

I think the side that isn’t full of white supremacists would have the moral high ground by default.

Honestly, you could say the same things about most trucks. They’re used more for posturing than as tools at this point. Though the CT does seem to be particularly unreliable based on its frequent recalls.

Maybe I’m crazy, but I preferred it when Twitter wasn’t suggesting I follow Nazis and putting their tweets in my feed.

Shockingly, unions full of people who eagerly serve capital, regularly engage in strike-breaking, and are otherwise disconnected from or actively hostile to the labor movement at large aren't well-liked by advocates of working class solidarity.

Ships that are docked in stations are safe, and in space your ship will warp away and disappear when you log off. The only exception is if you're already in combat. Your ship will still attempt to warp away, but it will remain in space until a combat timer expires.
