I think that's my mistake. I had assumed they understood that tool was only for white people to lecture other white people into voting for genocide. I shouldn't be surprised when some of them actually use it to feel morally superior to people who are directly affected.

That part makes enough sense to me on its own, but what do they mean by not caring about “fellow Muslims”, and what connection are they trying to make between those ideas? It’s clear enough that it’s some racist bullshit, but I’m trying to figure out what it’s supposed to mean to other liberals, and it still just sounds like stringing words together. Maybe I’m expecting too much from liberals but I figured there would be something specific that prompted this.

I seriously can't understand what the quoted tweet is supposed to mean. It seems like they're just randomly mashing ideas together? I tried to read the article, but the tweet was deleted, and the account you can see in the screenshot is a content firehose, so I couldn't find what this is about. Are they actually trying to apply the "Trump would kill n+1 Gazans" argument as a way to shame muslims, and then pinning that on homophobia based on nothing? Even for racist scratched liberals, this seems like incoherent nonsense. Am I missing something, or are they already panicking that badly

I'm glad Mr. Sanders understands that getting on a bus is like voting. You absolutely need to get on the bus that's doing a little less genocide. If you get turned around, you can always tell which bus that is because it's the one with Dick Cheney on it.

If you're trying to flip it instead of pick it up, you only have to lift half the weight, so maybe a strong one could, if the forks could handle all the weight being on the end. Sawed off forklift maybe?

It's really never a choice of 'which planet should we work on'. The problems on Earth can be solved, but not under capitalism and the current global power structure. Under a different system that could actually address the problems, there would be such a massive global effort underway to improve life on Earth, that some human exploration of Mars would be a tiny expenditure in comparison. As things stand, the problems aren't permitted to be solved, so even if all space exploration was ended tomorrow, all that labor and resources would be redirected to the military or industrial research to boost the profits of corporations.

This only applies to the actual material reality. Billionaires and Musk-worshipers who delude themselves into thinking that Mars will let them escape climate change exist outside of that.

Does it really help much for your house to have power for an hour if you're counting on a cybertruck owner to act as an electrician and not fry your wiring and then leave his truck dead, blocking your driveway?

Why would a vertical crane cast a shadow in a different direction than an angled crane? Shadows always point in the same direction, obviously. The sneaky ccp must be up to something...

It's a magma/lava type thing. Once the trans person walks out of the ikea store with it, it's pronounced blah-hajj

If you take the test after seeing this post, that was a reaction. It's too late for you, regardless of the result.

TRUMP kevlar ear covers now available folks, I wear them, they're the best. People said I shouldn't wear these, they showed me a diagram of a plane with all these red dots on it, and they told me I couldn't put armor where the dots are, can you believe that? They said you can't put armor on the red dots because people might get offended. Well folks I don't care what they say I'm putting the armor where the bullets go.

crushing up six genders and snorting them, then spending the next morning trying to remember what happened so I can figure out where I left my pronouns
