Some of these people believe homeless people are actually middle class and pretending because it pays better than getting a job. I had one tell me he honestly believes they go home, wash up, and then go engage in upper middle class pastimes once they get enough money standing on the side of the road.
Wasn't the problem that Hindenburg could appoint any chancellor he wanted if he rejected the pick of the legislature? By the time this election happened he had been ruling by emergency decree for like 2 years. And he was a conservative, even an imaginary alliance of centrists with the SPD and KPD would not have been able to force his hand if he didn't want to accept a nomination he didn't like, and he didn't like the socialists or the communists.
I don't think China wants to be the enemy of the US. They are the largest trading partner of the US. They seem genuinely interested in cooperating and bettering their own society. USians seem to be the ones bent on enmity. The US apparently thinks building infrastructure and developing the economies of other nations is 'malign influence.' The US killed citizens of allied nations through propaganda to ensure they wouldn't become friendlier with China, who was offering them vaccines while the US and Europe were hoarding their own.
The US sees 'being a large country and having influence' as threatening, there's no way to peacefully coexist with a country that sees everyone else as a threat by default.
Well we could devote those resources to solving the problems they are criticizing maybe. It would improve the lives of USians and undercut the arguments being brought up.
Spending billions to tell other countries that more infrastructure is actually bad is probably counterproductive and wasteful. Like how we spent money to kill Filipino people by telling them to avoid the Chinese produced covid jab.
Right, he doesn't expect to be listened to, he's cynical about democrats in a way Katie isn't.
Edit: I dunno maybe I'm totally off about him, it just feels like he's being jaded about them, not trying to defend Kamala. Maybe I need to kill my Showdies.
Warmbo is such a great character. There are almost no caricatures of libs from a left position that embody what's so irritating about them like he does.
I think Cody is generally better than most of the team and probably has more control over what comes out of his mouth for the videos. The more everyone else talks the more lib it seems to get.
I think he's been friends with many of them (especially Katie) for a long time and tolerates their lib takes because they are friends.
It's a smokescreen, we can't credibly claim to have a stronger or healthier industrial base or social system, all we can do is pretend we're ahead in imaginary tech arms races.
Yeah I had my post pre-drafted and was time locked on loading images at a certain point. I think it was like 10 minutes between new images when I did it. In the future I'll write up my post and include images as I go to avoid that I guess.
We probably need to canvas everyone about who still wants to be in the order honestly, we've had some attrition and some people who passed but didn't necessarily back out entirely.
For sure, liberals will always side with fascism when threatened, they are far more compatible with it than communism. And since being scratched is inevitable they will always have a fascism problem.
I think American liberalism is distinct from other countries' in that way, yes. My experience is that it's not normal elsewhere. I think the free market strives to transcend national prerogative as well, that's why Mises and Hayek were so keen to set up organizations like the IMF and WTO to enforce market order on nations without their interests getting in the way. Libs frequently support a "world system" over national interest in other countries.
As I said though, I can buy an argument in either direction, since fascism is so slippery as a term and the common usage of these ideas varies pretty widely. Maybe that's too accommodating on my part. I dunno. I take your point though.
