Chomsky is neither a Zionist nor anti-BDS:

‘I am opposed to any appearance in Israel that is used for nationalistic or other propaganda purposes to cover up its occupation and denial of Palestinian human rights. I’ve been involved in activities to hold Israel accountable for its international law violations since before the BDS movement took shape. While I have some tactical differences with the BDS movement, I strongly support the actions and continue to participate in them.’

• Arrests without warrants, brutality
• Teargassing and pepper-spraying journalists, citizens, etc.
• Violating direct court orders
• So much more!!!

Dick Cheney lied about walking so that JD Vance could lie about running.

Thanks for starting this discussion. I’ve linked this post in [email protected].

The Public Universal Friend is fascinating.

Monoculture is a terrible idea, even in a robotic vertical farm with sterilization. Decentralization is key, but brexit tyrants like Dyson will never share their automation technology or research with the public. Open source sharing is the only way to bring the price down to the point it can be decentralized.

Also, his vertical farm would not be profitable without his biodigesting power plant that gets free high-quality fuel from his non-vertical farm empire.

Flat-earthers share your self-importance as they also treat their outsider status as evidence of their social value. But one can’t take a step in sites like Reddit without having to scrape centrist ‘contrarians’ like you off the bottom of their shoe.

Your ‘perspective’ (i.e. criticism from the left is the real reason centrists are losing ground to fascism) is much too common on the large dying media sites to not have been considered, and bringing clearly uninspired and bad ideas to this new platform means you deserve all of the downvotes you receive.

How did that work out in the long run? I don’t know, but I hope somewhere in that long run you’ll look back on all of these comments you’ve made and cringe.

He has moral principles and he sticks to them. That’s what is meant by the ‘moral high ground.’ Early in his career he was invited on a CNN political propaganda show called ‘Crossfire,’ and his evisceration of Tucker Carlson on that show went viral and lead directly to its cancellation. The legendary video is still available if you search “Jon Stewart on Crossfire” and you can infer his moral code from his pleas to the hosts. Still refusing to play propagandist for any political party 20 years later is evidence his principles have not changed.

Yes, that Jon Stewart.

This is why Trevor Noah will never eclipse Jon Stewart. Jon Stewart doesn’t have perfect politics, but the demons that haunt him would never let him give up the moral high ground so casually.

The video on seattletimes is the same video from the dailyuw site, and it’s still available as far as I can tell.

The Party of Donald Trump wrote the emancipation proclamation in the 1800s. Who cares?

Correction – SLRPNK.net’s admins are all anarchists, but the server is not ‘for’ anarchists. Limiting our membership to anarchists for one means we would have to precisely define what an anarchist is, and then enforce that definition on our membership. In spaces where someone can be ejected for not being anarchist, this leads to attempts by people to censor others by trying to narrow the definition so the people they argue with fall on the wrong side of the line.

We’re looking for people who believe in the value of scientific consensus. We’re building a community that wants society to change to better meet the challenges of resource scarcity, ecological collapse, and increasing authoritarian influence in politics. We celebrate good faith discussion, and discourage trolling and bad rhetoric. We don’t tolerate hate speech and spamming. We believe a diverse set of ideas and approaches are more likely to solve complex problems than adhering to a strict party line. As anarchists and adminstrators, we approach revolution through prefiguration, believe that means and ends are inseparable, and want our server to reflect the society of the future we’d like to live in – one where diversity of thought is foundational in finding creative answers, and people with varying goals and ideals are able to work together to solve shared problems.

Yes, there have been reports that ICE agents are grabbing people’s cameras and destroying them. Probably the reason drones are banned over Chicago airspace right now also.

Ziq should be more famous for the history of toxic behavior they’ve displayed in every anarchist space they’ve participated in, including in their role as the ruler of Raddle․me. Their use of sockpuppets to manipulate and bully has discredited and disgraced Raddle․me and should be the primary reason for their notoriety. Any notoriety as a source of anarchist theory is due to their own tireless self-promotion rather than the strength of their ideas. Their writing is intentionally obtuse, relying on idiosyncratic re-definition of words to create clickbait titles. They make poorly supported claims that are either wrong or communicated more clearly by better people.

When I encounter someone sincerely recommending their writing, I suspect more sockpuppetry.
