Amnesty International USA reacted by issuing a correction, with executive director John Healey subsequently accusing the Bush administration of "opportunistic manipulation of the international human rights movement"...

How dare they opportunistically manipulate us by somehow making us fabricate witness testimony from evacuees? Surely we can all agree that the "international human rights movement" (

Elie Hobeika, the Lebanese Forces leader accused of ordering the civilians to be killed, was later assassinated by an Israeli car bomb before he could testify as to who was responsible for what.

There is a lot of difference between a poor person doing crime to help feed their family and a well-off westerner being a racist.

Astounded that this even needed to be said.

Didn't you know that these two things, labor aristocrats supporting imperialism because it's a system that materially benefits them, and the impoverished underclass committing criminal acts because they're trapped in a system which gives them no good options, are actually the same?

"The problem with reducing poverty is what if there are still poor people? Huh? Have you thought about that, liberal?"

Many people are but being a nationalist in countries that are historically on the business end of imperialist violence (China, Vietnam, Cuba, etc.) is fundamentally not the same as being a nationalist in a country that's perpetrating that violence (USA, Europe, etc.).

The right doesn't actually want to abolish the FBI, unless it's to replace it with something even worse. The right's latest surface-level grudge can't be used to push leftist policy. This only works if you have a strong movement that can play reactionaries against each other and take power afterwards. I think we all know that's not the case here.

who herself specialises in ‘Lolita complex subcultures’ at the university

Mao was too lenient towards academics.

like 2/3rds of american forces were conscripted for vietnam

1/3, but I doubt they'll do that again because even with a minority being draftees there was a lot of rebellion.
