Israel is a relevant group employing terror. They generally don't claim responsibility. Not advertising responsibility doesn't stop something from being terrorist. Nowhere was it stated they were responsible.

They aren't disputing the information presented. Simply the context of associating it with an image of stalin. Sort of sane washing him. It's definitely bad that the United States does this. But it's also definitely bad that it keeps getting reposted in this sort of context as a propaganda tool.

Two things can be bad. Why couldn't meme just ask what country does this? Then end with "the United states". I'd argue it would be just as impactful. Without having to downplay the horrors of another group.

Recently switched a system from arch to tumbleweed. After another required manual update intervention. So far I quite like it. And if as claimed is stable enough to not have me having to troubleshoot updates. I will likely be switching several more. It's not quite as on the bleeding edge as arch. But it still has plasma 6.4 and blender 4.4 etc which are the big things for me.

CBS and it's reliability on anything to do with news is now a joke. They're blown up any credibility that they may have had left. Turn themselves into a punchline for profits as capitalists are wont.

Anyone here want to hear a joke? Turn on CBS.

And tankies will ironically still hate it.

The first of many. Because Neville CBS Chamberlain played themselves.

Much more appropriate. It's not an island, the people being sent there will not be criminals, and the people sending them there are fascists.

Politics isn't a 1 dimensional spectrum. Even 2 dimensions can still be inadequate. Though it is a much better fit. Suficed to say the X axis is generally going to be economic orientation. And the Y axis social orientation. Economic being socialist to capitalist. Social being authoritarian to libertarian. But even then, going to far along social spectrum one direction makes the distinction of capitalism or socialism moot. Authoritarians will use whatever gives them power. They aren't specifically FOR either. The further you go towards libertarianism however, the less and less feasible something like capitalism gets.

Fascists don't care, and we all know they're hypocrites. But far too many people, who should know better, don't. So it absolutely needs to be restated constantly.
