I suppose some environmentalists wants to ban plastic bags in favor for more sustainable materials, not sure about the other ideas being leftist though, but i'd love to learn more about it if they are.

Oh i guess the guillotine was also leftist, but somehow i doubt that a ukipper wants to use it on the bourgeoisie.

i'm super leftist and i've never heard a policy proposal to ban golf courses before but i'm super into it

the more i think about this the better it sounds. let's get this in the platform

the temperature hasn't gone below freezing in Tampa Bay in decades but they manage to send a hockey team pretty far into the playoffs most years anyway

wonder how much chilling that arena costs in May

probably less than it costs to keep all the golf courses in SoCal green during a drought

So it's just basic 90s third-wayism again?

yes but instead of triangulating between labor and neoliberalism they're now triangulating between neoliberalism and outright fascism

Dinesh D'Souza is proudly pro-colonialist and spends a big portion of his weird movie about Obama's Dad arguing that much of Asia was better off under the British Empire (including India, where he is from). I'm sure this isn't terribly uncommon among Anglo neocons, theyre still all about the white man's burden

the EU should pay Greece's debt itself by fining the living poo poo out of the various banks that defrauded them by concealing Greece's existing finances when they applied but this would involve banks being penalized by a banking organization so

I don't think I can agree with all this. I've seen the press in places like China where it isn't free, where the state dictates by law what can be said and by whom.

That's how I know we do have a free press here and that it's better than the alternative.

"censorship dictated by the government bureaucracy is bad, but censorship dictated by the dozen disgusting old men who own 95% of the media? that is very, very good"
