OBJECTION!@lemmy.mlto chapotraphouse@hexbear.net•CMV: America decided to vilify the concept of military parades because its own roads are too shitty to move armored vehiclesEnglish25·2 days agoIt’s because they love wars and the military. The only difference between them and chuds is that they act embarrassed about it. The reason they absolutely despise the parade is because acting bashful while committing mass murder is the thing that justifies it and makes it ok, in their eyes.

OBJECTION!@lemmy.mlto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a historical precedent or tv series that mirrors whats going on in the States right now? Besides Handmaids Tale?131·6 days agoI find the last days of the Qing dynasty China to be somewhat analogous. Institutional rot, rampant corruption, a complete failure to adapt to crises and open hostility to anyone proposing workable solutions or trying to learn from foreign examples. Basically the two voices in government were, “Learn how guns work while completely refusing to understand the scientific principles that allowed them to be developed” and “Learn absolutely nothing.” The “lesser evil” was woefully inadequate, and once the government finally collapsed, both factions that emerged (communists and nationalist) were far more influenced by Western ideas than even the most radical in the Qing government were.

Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls?31·9 days agoBlah blah blah. The Nazis started by coming after trans people too, gay people wound up in camps all the same. Divide and conquer, you’re not as clever with this BS as you think.

Is there a version of /r/changemyview?4·9 days agoIt may have originated with trans people getting kicked out, shopping for cheap furniture, and then being pleasantly surprised to find a big soft friend at the furniture store - out of nowhere something fun and comforting appears just as they begin a new life.
However, that’s speculation, nobody knows for sure. It just sort of became a meme.
OBJECTION!@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it true that femboys are "fetishized" by right-wingers or something like that? Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls?31·10 days ago“trans rights” and gay rights don’t mix very well.
Classic right wing “divide and conquer” tactics, try to drive a wedge between trans and gay people, pick off the trans people first, then come for the gays next. This nonsense is exactly why the LGBT acronym was made in the first place, because we (the vast majority of us, anyway) stand together in solidarity and reject this idiotic nonsense.
OBJECTION!@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it true that femboys are "fetishized" by right-wingers or something like that? Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls?8·10 days agoYes, it’s true in some cases.
It’s not really that surprising. Just as there are straight men who are misogynist there are people who are attracted to femboys, trans people, and/or other gender nonconforming people who hold prejudices against the same group. It’s massively oversimplifying human psychology to think it just comes down to a single linear axis of like/dislike. For some people, it might be that simple, but it’s not always the case.
Take the song Hellfire and replace Esmeralda with a femboy, everything else can stay the same.

Imo classical economists were generally more clear-sighted and honest than modern ones. Of course they had their biases and perspective based on their class (and their audience), but at that point economics was so poorly understood that theorists were legitimately trying to figure stuff out, moreso than trying to produce propaganda. Of course, the industrial proletariat and threat of socialism wasn’t really present yet either, so the class conflict was more about new money bourgeois vs old money aristocrats and landlords.
Marx and Smith are a lot more similar than most people think, because Marx was writing in the context of various economic assumptions that come from Smith, such as the labor theory of value, which is usually attributed to Marx but actually comes from Smith.
The thing about Smith though is that his writing style was very dry and repetitive so nobody actually reads him, at best, they might read abridged versions which cut out any inconvenient parts like that. So he just kinda became known as the capitalism guy and is thrown in the same category as Ayn Rand.

OBJECTION!@lemmy.mlto Canada@lemmy.ca•Dont Ever Listen To Those Who Claim "Voting is Pointless"75·12 days agoI live in Illinois. If somehow the heavens and earth move such that Illinois turned red, then there would be absolutely zero chance it would be the tipping point in the presidential election. The vast majority of people in the US live in safe states.
And for the record, I do vote in down-ballot races, the ones that actually matter, but none of you care because it’s all about genuflecting before the leader of the blue tribe. Which, frankly, just gives me more reason to refuse to.
“Democracy” doesn’t need our help to be sabotaged, it’s falling apart on it’s own. Every time someone says that the voters have to change en masse to meet the policies of politicians rather than politicians having to respond to what their constituents want, they are the ones taking the axe to democracy. Why the hell would anyone care about upholding or defending a system that we have no say in? Somehow, insisting on popular demands and trying to turn the will of the people into policies that protect the rights of the vulnerable gets translated into “trying to sabotage democracy” equating Anarchists and Marxists alike with fascists.
