My guy, I hate to break this to you, people were making these criticisms of capitalism over 150 years ago. I was referring to Black Liberationist critiques of privatized media expansion in the mid-twentieth-century US, but liberal/capitalist ownership over media and space that can be used to challenge this sytem has been a fundamental mechanism in its reproduction for much, much longer.
You gotta pay more attention then. Many of us have expected this for nine years, some sixty years.
Refer to the other comment. I don’t really care if someone like you takes me seriously. I sometimes respond to these things to prevent others like you from feeling too validated when they come across these threads. The deeper you go, you’ll notice its mostly people who hate the first comment that drill down to find others they agree with.
People like you are extremely uncomfortable with the reality of your words. Its not “in someone’s head” when they make an observation about you that you don’t like. If you don’t want to be a liberal, you should consider more deeply why you advocate for liberalism in how you express your understanding of the world.
I write for a living, takes thirty seconds to write what counts as a paragraph on this site. If four paragraphs on the internet is too excessive for you, I reckon you don’t read about what you pretend to know about all that much.
Though this is all motivated by capitalistic expansion, it’s also worth noting that liberals have been trying to eliminate the dissent facilitated through online activism and information campaigns for a few years now. Ownership over our PCs means that there can always be an internet operated and monitored by us.
edit: Pretty sure some of you don’t know what liberalism is.
Smug. One of the only events in the past few years that incited class solidarity across cultural lines in the US and you see it as valueless because the bullet wasn’t magic.
Discourses after he was shot demonstrated that Americans, regardless of their political affiliations, recognise the systemic failure to address both the cruelty of healthcare denial and create consequences for those in positions of power. You think they fought tooth and nail to find someone to blame after just because they were sad that this guy got shot? Grow up.
Jesus Christ I am so tired of liberals online who are in complete denial of how dire this situation really is. There is no fucking cabal of politicians and billionaires, there doesn’t need to be, because this is a capitalist system that operates in the interest of, go figure, capital. It isn’t a fucking secret society of exceptionally corrupt individuals pushing fascism, they don’t have mind control powers or actual infinite resources to facilitate their nefarious schemes. This system is built to their interest.
Donald Trump’s death does not need to undo a system to still have value. His personality is extremely effective at absorbing the middle class, white, liberal imagination of the violence this system must inflict to survive. So far, he hasn’t even done anything that exceptional relative to hundreds of years of US imperialism. Except, because liberals, like you, are primed to think of this system as perfect bar the few nasty bad actors, they are satisfied with his exceptionally loud delivery of this violence as an explanation for why the violence is happening. Even if it’s just for justice for those his administration is responsible for killing and harming, it would be valuable.
Like, what the fuck else is going to convince you people that violence is going to be necessary? Sorry that it’s scary, but smug denial of this reality is a very short term solution.
This guy is just walking around public spaces still people. A drone with some thermite taped to it would probably do it ffs.
They should have more game sales if they don’t want me to use an emulator.
Go do that then. Manual labour jobs pay way higher and we all know that they’re hard, but also have a ton of pissing around and low supervision.
Oh my, how surprising, a Nazi who fetishized an Asian woman. I wonder if this is a common thing, perhaps even predictable.
Yes. That is what I said, except I don’t care if he even felt it. I’m saying they should feel threatened when they obviously do not.
That this man felt there would be no consequences for murdering a person in front of a crowd is overwhelming proof that they do not feel threatened. They understood that they could commit violence, not the crowd.
This is pointless. Even if she was aggressive and tried to kill this man, she’d be right to. This should not be able whether this Nazi felt in danger, they should feel threatened when they attack communities or random people. This video shows that peace is not an option with them. Consequences for chuds reduces their numbers significantly, they scatter when they realize they could actually get hurt.
They’re going to claim that people are trying to kill them anyway. Might as well stop them from lying and create some real consequences for these Nazis. I’ve seen so many videos of them surrounded by crowds, it wouldn’t take much.
Wow, a whole unionized and competent studio now free to pursue internally chosen productions? I sure hope they don’t get some of those “Canadian Heritage” media subsidies. Seriously though this is the shit the state should be funding, it’d be a shame to have this kind of resource squandered.
Jfc, they’re really going to attack private PC ownership when the AI boom falters.
