@hawkerplt@Carina_Amyth@Acyn I can only assume you either can’t read or have zero knowledge of the Bolshevik revolution. Most of what is in here is just normal in most developed (capitalist) countries. It’s just in the US that public healthcare or checks on state murders are characterised as “communist”
@SusanCowell@chrisandmarkuk This test would have saved my wife’s life. 5 years ago, they only tested once you reached 60. If they had tested younger then, they would have found her tumour early enough to fix it. Instead she died at 61, after 38 years together, leaving our beautiful children without a mum!
@data_scoutKE@WithoutHistory Plato’s attempt to implement this in Syracuse was a complete failure. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely! People in power with democratic checks act more and more in their narrow financial interests.
@BST_JUNKIE @SimonAn57473803 @Heccles94@MothinAli@zarahsultana@ApsenaBegum Don’t like to see it happen to others and understand that it starts from division a dehumanisation. You should find plenty of images with a bit of googling.
@BST_JUNKIE @SimonAn57473803 @Heccles94@MothinAli@zarahsultana@ApsenaBegum I was there; I saw descendants of holocaust survivors protesting against Gaza genocide, Jews for Palestine groups, plenty of people advertising their Jewishness and equating it with social justice. All very much welcomed. But people (like me) whose families survived genocide …
@thewriterme It’s very dishonest to present this ignoring the opinion of the majority of scholars that this is a later insertion into Josephus’ history. Common sense would tell you that Josephus, a non Christian, is unlikely in the middle of his history to suddenly proclaim: He was the Christ
@Karlant36652451@owenjonesjourno Likud’s founding charter advocates Israeli sovereignty from the river to the sea, and carries out ethnic cleansing to achieve it, but chanting that it should be free is anti Jewish?
It’s abundantly clear which of these is genuinely racist!
@DavidCasse28757@charise_lee Obviously the majority of inhabitants did not speak English before English speakers killed a bunch of them and forced them off their land!
Nothing to be proud of if you have an ounce of morality
@Keir_Starmer Your immigration focus, cosplaying Enoch Powell, will gain no support from those that can vote for the real thing.
It WILL permanently lose the support of decent people.
My wife was supported in the NHS/carers as she died not by “strangers”, but good, hardworking non-UK people
@mehercle@ikeijeh@BearGrylls@HodderFaith If you believe the biblical story that his family fled persecution to Egypt, that is exactly what a refugee is. Even if Egypt was also a Roman province this would still make him a refugee; most refugees even today are “internally“ displaced in the same country.
@MwAw1956@TristanSnell This, as I’m sure you know is not a quote from Marx and doesn’t sound remotely like anything Marx would have written, which is why you didn’t provide a reference.
It is reminiscent of a Goebbels speech from 1934. It also seems a perfect summary of trumpian tactics!
@LevParikian “Worth”: people are not WORTH £x billion, that’s what they OWN. This has become universally used in all media and says something about the values we accept.
