..yea because anytime a socialist does socialism in a country, the US goes in, kills every socialist and helps fascists take over the country..
We cannot have sustainable energy because it threatens the oil industry. We cannot have healthcare because it threatens insurance. We cannot have peace because it threatens the weapons industry. Capitalism built a system where doing the right thing is treated like bad business.
How the hell is everything so expensive when all we've done for 40+ years is give corporations the tax breaks they swore they needed to hire workers and lower prices?
America has not arrested a single pedophile mentioned in the Epstein files. Not a single girl got justice.
And these are the same Americans you want us to believe are worried about women in Iran.
They killed 168 girls between the ages of 7 and 12 in Iran.
@Grav_Amundsen@somewheresy As a fellow former tank rat, I can attest that that heating oil tank work is brutal and no money is good enough for that. Especially after a year and a half of doing it
I keep hearing that he was a nurse but I don't care if he was a pediatric surgeon or a euphonium player, cops can't be permitted to kill people in the streets with impunity, let alone illiterate terrorists cosplaying as fascist law enforcement
It's funny how white supremacists freak out about global birth rates, because this is the result of white supremacism getting everything it wanted. Whites spent centuries extracting wealth from the global south, and it turns out fertility rates decline the wealthier a population becomes. They plundered and exploited and enslaved and extracted from the darker-skinned people whom they viewed as inferior, and now those populations are the only ones reproducing at above replacement levels.
They're freaking out because they understand their civilization will come crashing down without working-age people stepping in to keep the gears of the nation turning as prior generations age out, and now the only way they're going to get those workers is by inviting them to immigrate from other continents. Those immigrants will have significant bargaining power because they are needed; they won't just remain some permanently subjugated underclass. Eventually they start intermarrying with the white population, and before long humanity consists of lovely shades of tan. White supremacism loses, ultimately because it got everything it has ever asked for.
This is one reason why there's so much overlap between white supremacism and Christian fundamentalism, by the way. White supremacists understand that they can't have wealthy, educated women choosing when they do and do not reproduce, because it turns out having and raising children is a massive ordeal and a woman with rights and resources will only sometimes feel safe and supported enough to do it. So they need to find ways to turn them back into a man's property and force them to churn out white children.
This is also a lot of the drive behind all the tradwife stuff, the incel stuff, the anti-abortion stuff, and the "your body, my choice" rape apologia you see on the far right. White supremacists are searching for ways to bump up white birth rates against the wishes of women. White supremacism is unworkable without male supremacism.
This is also why you see racists like Elon Musk simultaneously freaking out about declining birth rates and pushing AI like their life depends on it. They understand that automating society is the only way to stave off the future wave of immigration that will otherwise be necessary to keep civilization functioning. But it turns out AI is a bust, and that bubble is going to burst before long. Again, white supremacism loses in the end.
