my take was always that the “right” wing is called that way because their left brain half is more active, which engages in logical, geometric and algebraic thought.
similarly, the “left” is called that way because their right brain half is more active, leading them to think long-term (in balance with nature), sustainably and also emotional.
yes actually, by waiting 200 years until the republicans shoot themselves to mars, at which point presumably the not-so-far-right would stay behind and maybe form a new society.
but not in your lifetime, no.
yeah, the left has been systematically eroded in america, and what’s typically considered “left” in america today, is actually center-right (i.e. capitalism with small social elements in it).
tax the rich
3% of their net worth annually, give it all to the people. universal basic income.
ok so to sum it up, you’re saying that not only capitalists, but men in general are also evil.
well, i guess i disagree. you’re engaging in a pithole of fallacies there. consider:
class struggles lead to poverty, and poverty leads to angry people. the people lash out against one another, and that creates the social issues. fighting against capitalism means fighting against the problem’s root, not just its symptoms.
If they don’t respect our lifes, how can we respect theirs?
at this point i’m actually convinced they’re not doing this to enrich themselves.
they’re doing it to crush the population, to keep it living paycheck-to-paycheck, so they can’t afford an uprise when they need to fight back.
on a similar, related, note, integrating young men into society and not estranging them by telling them that they’re the worst, is also important to have a coherent society.
even if there wasn’t any misinformations on the internet, you still wouldn’t need to create new ones.
i guess you’re wrong about that. what you’re referring to is the fallacy that all liberals are extremely short-sighted and can’t make reasonable decisions, which is why they’re constantly manipulated and that causes them to be liberal in the first place.
there are liberals who can see reason.
Yeah in europe liberals are liberals, while in america liberals are liberals but it must not interfere with capitalist interests
yeah, that seems to me how people use these words
nevertheless, “liberalism” used to have an actual definition. it meant somebody would would say “things are allowed unless they are forbidden”, which is contrary to the anti-liberal (sometimes identified as conservative) view that “things are forbidden unless they are allowed”, which means, liberals don’t bother with things that don’t matter.
now, if you’re a trans girl shitting in a public toilet, that doesn’t matter because it doesn’t really change anything. that is why liberalism says “ok, it shouldn’t be forbidden, so by default it’s allowed” while anti-liberalists claim “i don’t see why these people are doing this, therefore they are faking it (being trans) and also it should be a crime until proven innocent”.
Why would it be wrong? You choose your own path in life.
No definitely not.
A long time ago, in the medieval ages, they had some concept called a “just war”.
It meant a situation where you had to fight someone, but had to do so in a “right way”. For example, consider a duel: You have to talk to your opponent first, introduce yourself, state the reason why you’re having qualms with them, give them an option to find non-violent ways to resolve the conflict, and only if that fails, you start the physical fighting. After the opponent is defeated (for example by giving up), fighting had to stop and the matter had to be considered settled. it was not acceptable to blindside an opponent, play dirty, like attacking them from behind. and stuff like that.
something similar applied to larger battles as well, btw.
Why would you want to not use Android? Can’t you just de-google your android if that’s your concern? Android is made for mobile devices.
it’s my personal take and i know many will disagree but:
they distracted the people for decades with this bullshit men-vs-women litigation, to distract them from the systematic erosion of the wages, which is what left politics should have actually concerned itself with.
they attacked the women-men relationship specifically because they knew that love and personal relationships give people enormous strength, and by systematically eroding exactly that (by fearmongering and propaganda), they could weaken the people, making them easier to conquer and subdue.
