it’s just a silly hashtag, you don’t need to cherry-pick the most conventionally hot/ripped guys just because you’re a body-insecure gay (not that I can’t relate to that somewhat)

someone's gotta collect all these stories where people complain about their family's plantation being seized by communists or their grandma was the tsarina's cousin twice removed before getting chased out by bolsheviks or whatever

for historical purposes

The wonderful thing about twitter is that these people can be exposed to hundreds of normal people expressing the sentiment that their rich grandparents should have been executed.

Exploration is ill-advised.
So is this coming from 'Bernie bros are doing it therefore it is a fascism' or has 'caring about things is fascism' now extended to your own body

or is it 'I look like poo poo because I am an ally who doesn't want to intimidate women'

Liberalism is the mind prison of believing that nothing better is possible. Liberals don’t lift and it’s like garlic on a vampire for them to see someone being happy or doing better.

"..The high ground"


Ah, yes, DNVP, the famously never-Hitler party. They never had ministers in Hitler's cabinet, nosir.

Also the notion that March 1933 was a fair election is a farce with Goering controlling the police, but it's some amazing historical hot takes in that post.

1933 was democratic enough to be perceived as legitimate, including by most of the opposition. there is no doubt as to the nazis being legitimately popular

a prominent tendency in contemporary discourse is the attempt to delegitimise flawed elections (e.g. brexit) on formal grounds rather than engage with how why they were in a position to fudge it in the first place - we really oughtn't do that with hitler imo

The article feels pretty unambiguously anti-Bibi and anti-occupation. Whether or not the status quo is technically apartheid seems pedantic when it's already an unacceptable occupation.

Isolated in a tweet, the quote sounds like some liberal "The status quo is fine, but THIS is a step too far" bullshit, while the article seems a little more about how this will codify and exacerbate an intolerable status quo. There's still an element of targeting status quo liberals though, trying to assuage their guilt by saying this is a step too far, a TRUMP plan that won't work (if it was likely to work they'd probably support it), and a legal codification of inequality that liberals could otherwise pretend wasn't real because it was merely de facto rather than de jure.

Yeah there's definitely a lib brain thing going on in their hypothetical two state solution, but at least they've got the moral fiber to hate the status quo.
