"The posts have sparked outrage among pro-foreign nation circles in Washington." Can't think of any other US ally including the no. 1 lapdog UK that would ever receive this royal treatment.

99% of the people whining and moaning about unfairness in women's sports never watch or really care at all about women's sports and don't realize that cis women athletes often juice up or have naturally elevated testosterone levels. There are no "frail" humans in any sport where strength matters and the vast majority isn't trans.

They don't just think they're low information voters, liberals make completely casual attributions to low IQ i.e. scientific racist garbage but completely normalized.

Clearly promoted by the bourgeoisie? Why? Wtf kind of take even is that, it's almost indistinguishable from "x group is poisoning our society with their degeneracy". Can someone explain it to me?

Do you trust the NSA, ICANN, IANA (all headquartered in the USA) etc and that SSL/TLS cert authorities haven't been backdoored to hell and back? (Probably a decade+ since top level cert authorities were found to be backdoored but who cares amirite.)

Yeah okay sure, when the US was putting down mass insurrections in Detroit etc with the National Guard and there was armed combat in the streets (1960s) the US wasn't a fascist hellhole officially. Or the entire period until the 1965 Voting Act and the multiple Civil Rights Acts (didn't end in the 60s) that it took for "constitutional rights" to be applied to all residents because simply being a resident didn't make you a full citizen in the "constitutional republic" if you didn't have the right skin tone, that also wasn't officially a fascist hellhole either.

What else? Henry Ford publishing a ton of dodgy anti-Semitic literature in the 1920s and inspiring Hitler and the Euro OG fascists? Not officially fascist hellhole enough.

Blood quantum laws, one drop rules, eugenics programs etc that also directly inspired the Nazis but were often rejected for being too extreme for them (the Nuremberg blood laws that determined Jewish ancestry are significantly more lenient than US one drop laws)? Not officially fascist hellhole.

Yeah, USA was straight up Weimar Republic or maybe the USSR or maybe anarchist Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War until Trump won in 2016.

Can people start pushing back against this self-serving center-lib romantic bs already? Because simply put, if it all got ruined because of Trump then come right out and say openly that you're fine with everything that came before because it mostly affected natives, blacks and foreigners but not US WASPs. Or I don't know, relax because saying it's always been a total hellhole doesn't mean you support Trump.

Maybe I should mention that this is Cold War era propaganda about USA representing "freedom and democracy" (the free world bs) vs totalitarianism etc back during the time segregation and putting people in jail for sodomy were supposedly freedom loving acts?

The weird thing here is the implication of data collection for a decade, which I really don't think is covered by any law.

Not that, I'm asking how someone can arrive to that wild conclusion from within a marxist perspective.

Fuentes himself was almost murdered last December by a guy who killed three other people and two dogs that day and ended up getting killed by the police. He went there specifically for Fuentes but I don't think it was some foot soldier following orders. No idea if the guy was on the left but I kinda don't really think he was.

And the Nazis deliberately tried to destroy evidence for the death camps in Poland both before and during running away from the Red Army so destruction of evidence is routinely a part of genocides.

Having state enforced national narratives of unjust persecution (towards Israel, not just real historical anti-Semitism), blaming others for everything going badly, dehumanizing adversaries etc is bound to create this type of almost delulu social narcissism. "I'm the greatest victim" is the textbook manifestation of vulnerable subtype of narcissism. I wouldn't pathologize a whole society normally but the overwhelming support for the ongoing genocide means at least functionally inhibited or reduced empathy and we need to learn from this.

Don't have a specific link right now but the civilian death toll from the Japanese operations in Manchuria is most likely above 10 million. There are also several ethnic minorities in Japan that have been colonized by them relatively recently e.g. Okinawa, ehich is also secondarily occupied by a huge US base.

And whining and accusing others of authoritarianism while living under hereditary monarchy is the level of clownery only brainwashed westoids can achieve. Also believe it or not but not every single country on earth needs to be an ethnically "pure" ethnostate just to avoid being called "imperialist" by concern trolling colonizers.

Failed gotcha talking point considering that the main bulk of western Zionists are rabidly anti-LGBT, anti-reproductive rights, anti-evolution Christian fanatics who support Israel because they low key believe the existence of Israel is integral to the second coming. Also, not coincidentally the exact same crowd that voted in all the presidents who sponsored groups like Al Qaeda to push against the communist government of Afghanistan and other communist, socialist and secular movements in the region because birds of a feather work together and religious fanatics apparently get along when they need to and then betray each other because morals don't count if god is supposedly always on your side amirite.

More AI pearl clutching by crapmodo because this type of outrage porn sells. Yeah the engagement fine tuning sucks but it's no different than other dopamine hacking engagement systems used in big social networks. No outrage porn about algorithmic echo chambers driving people insane though because it's not as clickbaity.

Anyway, people don't randomly get psychosis because anyone or anything validated some wonky beliefs and misinformed them about this and that. Both these examples were people already diagnosed with something and the exact same thing would happen if they were watching Alex Jones and interacting with other viewers. Basically how flat earth bs spread.

The issue here is the abysmal level of psychiatric care, lack of socialized medicine, lack of mental health awareness in the wider population, police interactions with mentally ill people being abnormally highly lethal and not crackpot theories about AI causing delusions. That's now how delusions work.

Also casually quoting Yudkowski? The Alex Jones of scifi AI fear mongering? The guy who said abortions should be allowed up until a baby develops qualia at 2-3 years of age? That's the voice of reason for crapmodo? Lmao.

People who don't like Murica should move to Iran like you're going to join the army today to personally fight the war that you support right? You're not just being an armchair general, right? You're gonna actually get on that ship and invade Iran, right?
