I'm always amused by people trying to portray Corbyn as some kind of master Trotskyist revolutionary at the head of the personality cult because blairites can't accept that the reason he keeps beating them is because they loving suck and no-one likes them

how did you guys run out of smart and competent leftists
like everyone in british politics not named Nicola Sturgeon (:swoon:) seems really dumb.

Photography doesn't have the same religious injunction that illustration has for whatever reason, so there could be an ISIS messageboard but it'd have to be heavily moderated for paintings and cartoons.

I mean I thought it was the same as when they use the chants for listening on the road.

The Italian Fascists weren't phenotypically racist, but nationally racist - so of course they would tolerate Italian Jews if they were willing to serve the fascist state. Islamic fascism would be a movement that wouldn't tolerate any forms of non-Islamic practice, yet Hezbollah defends Lebanese Christians and Druze from ISIS. Saying that they're a front organization is also seriously ignorant. I guess you'd say that the Houthi are an "front organization" too.

Hezbollah has been cultivated by Iran and Syria though. :confused: The houthis are more complicated because of the geographic distance and the distinctiveness of their Shia Islam.

I got interviewed by the NYT once; my interviewer rehabilitated a lying-coked-up-in-bathtubs-annoying-people-at-parties George Bush Jr. to a run-your-da's-business-into-the-ground-and-put-it-on-your-CV-for-President state by golfing with him back in the 70s. So, not surprised that the capitalist class are disappointed by the want of a majority, or that the fact they have to go and read about Northern Ireland now has led to some instability in the pound.

e: typo X2

I got interviewed by a NYT lady when I took part of NYC data rescue who I think was trying to get me to say something radical.

It isn't enough to just have a platform, Corbyn also has an authenticity that's genuinely endearing, and the socialist bonafides to prove that he's serious about his agenda. Despite not having what we'd usually consider charisma or a gift of gab, he's extremely likeable.

Honestly I was incredibly shocked by how effective of a campaigner he was since I hadn't paid much attention to British politics before except for Scotland and I thought labor was dead after 2015. It was really that response to the small business guy who expecting to be sucked off as usual that really sealed the deal for me since he countered his points with a sincere appeal to the common good.

Just yelling 'ur racist u anti-socialist reactionary' at people does not win friends or influence people. The outlook of the young across the world is purestrain garbage and you need to come up with a compelling argument for how internationalism founded on freedom of movement rather than solidarity in struggles is the right way to go. You can unionise every shop and make union membership compulsory then through a combination of government regulation and direct action by labor force the shops to act fairly or you can close the borders and kick out every johnny foreigner and have wages on jobs people are currently unwilling to do at the compensation offered have their wages raise to meet the market.

Freedom of movement being a plank of internationalism relies on every government in the world acting in good faith to help the workers have a good quality of life which is a laughable idea. One country turns scab and the entire house of cards topples.

Or you could not let people die in the desert and the sea for no reason.
