Yeah it is rather funny the more I read it. Like, just copy the article language or paraphrase it quickly. Reminds me of reading state ballot measures in the us.

Not just .world. I saw people from all over recommending matrix by element, and element works with the police and nato

I’m not even a tech knower and found that connection

I wish you could somehow send this to every single reddit account as a private message replacing the word this with the word everything. I don’t use reddit anymore, but they need to hear it.

The comment you replied to is just “not all men!,” but group-flavored. You’re right to call it whataboutism.

Class analysis and racism are the same, folks. I too am shocked, but you can’t lie on the Internet, so here we are.

It says:

She was the first South Korean director who was allowed to visit North Korea after Korean War without being charged for treason by South Korea, because she has a German passport. She gave up South Korean citizenship and took the German one just for making this documentary and getting a visa and the permission of shooting from North Korea

The phrasing is a bit odd, but the reference goes to a DW article, the subheading of which is:

A new film made by Sung-Hyung Cho attempts to give outsiders an insight into life in North Korea. The director, who even had to give up her South Korean nationality to shoot the film, spoke to DW about the project.

Well to be fair, the Dems are still somewhat pretending. Fewer people are buying it.

I was just being pedantic really sry

Have you looked into the “demonstrators” they clashed with? If not, you may find that particularly telling. You know how the usian media acts like every protest is a bloody clash where cops are being overwhelmed and murdered? Well, this was that, for real.

I support unarmed cops, and I support “clashing” with citizens who start killing them.

So you and I watch memento like, how is this interesting? Doesn’t everyone live like this?

Yeah, you’re right. You and other user must agree on terms and on what you already agree on first.

I saw they had a similar experience of talking past each other with cowbee. They might be a particularly articulate wrecker, but I didn’t want to jump straight there.

Yeah but you’re not just looking. You’re running your mouth. People tend to ask for clarifications.

Sometimes people sacrifice things for principles. What’s funny about that?

Shoehorning objectivation into every context may be simple, but answering the question of why we do that is not.

“He takes the some of the liberal achievements (rationalism, the end of feudal bondage, and the Labor Theory of Value) and shows that they can only be fully realized by moving beyond the capitalist mode of production”

I thought that was pretty clear. The achievements are to be fully realized which cannot be done without overthrowing liberal democracy. The full realizations of achievements are mutually exclusive with the continued existence of libdem

That might not be what they meant though. That’s just how I read it.

Becoming? Those were always accusations in a mirror

Do you not have people in your life who understand that the police lock people up for bullshit all the time? Why would they assume you deserved it? You need less ignorant people in your life (don’t we all)

Consider this liberal scratched y’all

Thank you for providing a great example of the propaganda tactic often called “accusations in a mirror.” This is more often referenced with the term projection.

This, unironically.

If your “circle jerks” involve discussing the nuances of history and political theory, that’s just a discussion.

If your “circle jerks” involve spreading imperial lies and frothing at the mouth for genocide, that’s a problem.

Unfortunately, it seems the latter is much more acceptable on the Internet overall.

This question only serves to enable mudslinging while hiding behind a homophobic term.

The term is so loaded with homophobia that’s it practically useless.

There are communities where leftists can openly discuss leftist theory and (to a lesser extent) praxis without being permabanned for thought crime like most spaces.

I find that fun. I haven’t had the opportunity to join a circle jerk, but it sounds fun to me. So, in that sense, the answer to your question is a tentative, horny yes.
