Let’s use healthcare as an example. Liberalism generally believe in the power of the markets so are quite happy to privatise healthcare.
It’s pretty obvious to anyone paying attention that a healthcare system that requires private individuals to pay for coverage will result in the poorest and most unfortunate having no coverage.
The very idea of privatised healthcare being acceptable on any level is antithetical to leftist beliefs but compatible with liberal ideology, hence it is right wing.
Yeah in case you haven’t realised he doesn’t give a fuck about you.
It’s a big beautiful club and you’re not in it.
I’ve already blocked Lemmy world and I’m OOTL what happened now?
Do you really need to read volumes of theory to grasp what is fundamentally a rather straightforward concept?
Leftism shouldn’t be locked behind intellectual elitism.
TL;DR the capitalist state will use threats of violence/actual violence against threats to capitalism which includes those who stand for progressive ideals. Leftists believe this is a justification to use violence against the state.
There are only two tried and true methods I am aware of to stop fascists:
I’m going to enjoy seeing this comment get removed. I’ll think about it as I’m put on the train to the death camp.
The Supreme Court currently has a majority of batshit insane constitutional originalists.
They are most definitely capable of doing this.
They just have to divine some batshit insane constitutionally originalist argument that justifies it.
Night of broken glass comes first.
Wait for them to loot and pillage “immigrant” owned businesses.
Not sure I agree as it seems like black and white thinking.
I.e. I could imagine a scenario where someone is very obviously/admits to using neopronouns disingenuously and that would break my social contract with them to honour it.
If I make an assessment of neopronoun usage on a case by case basis I can still avoid witch hunts. It’s similar to how I determine in real life if someone is an asshole or not.
Another way; I can support a person who I genuinely believe uses neopronouns while denouncing and excluding someone who doesn’t.
My preference is for completely community moderated platform.
People essentially vote for content moderation. Likely susceptible to gamification but I’m still interested in seeing it in practice.
Is it still invalidating when someone using neopronouns is doing so disingenuously?
Mods will always be a problem.
I’ve yet to encounter a well adjusted human who voluntarily mods.
This was pretty much what set me on the path to radicalisation.
The system felt so unfair and then to learn that there were people who could do exactly this just because they were born into a family with large capital it was infuriating.
Pretty sure mods of any internet forum or social media have proved this long ago.
Charities don’t actually do this directly. It’s clever marketing on their part.
Your money is pooled like every donation and it could be used to fund vaccines like this.
It’s how you avoid one million people just buying vaccines rather than funding a fresh water well for example.
People in poverty should not have an existence dependent on the whims of charitable donations.
We have welfare states exactly for this reason.
I’ll clarify by saying modern imperialism has caused issues in this area.
I’m calling the other person ignorant because prior to 1948 that area had conflict for a long time.
Now that’s ignorant.
Caveat I don’t have kids.
Can’t kids just miss a meal if they don’t want to eat it? Not like a kid is going to die from one missed meal.
