Bruh if he actually does this shit (he likely won’t; this is just rhetoric for votes) he would genuinely be the harm reduction candidate.

If you’re a rabid right winger like most redditors anyone with half a brain will seem crazy.

since Brazil makes/made up a third of Twitter users

That was years ago. Its popularity had already far decreased before they banned it.

Still a good thing to ban nazi infested sites though. Bolsonaro getting elected was in part due to far-right misinformation on Twitter, as the linked article also points out.

We live in an interesting time where a nation can successfully pull off a blockade for this long even without the sheer budget of navies like the US’s

Weren’t there so many tweets saying how “The Houthis are about to find out why we don’t have free healthcare”? Well, the Houthis are still wondering why.

We can certainly hope 😔

That’s the point. Even the right wing outlets are starting to admit it now

This author even previously said “The US Navy could crush them” lmfao

For the idiots trying to defend this piece of shit and claiming this is done by biden’s “opposition” or whatever, he obviously does agree with the move.

Biden denounces ICC for ‘outrageous’ implication of equivalence between Israel and Hamas

The Biden administration on Monday forcefully denounced efforts by the International Criminal Court to seek arrest warrants for top Israeli officials and Hamas leaders, saying the court’s efforts put the terrorist organization and a top US ally on equivalent footing.

The neo-nazi one that attacked the trade union building and Eastern Ukrainians for resisting, yeah

Looking up the 2010 elections should give you an idea of what the division in Ukraine is like

I remember back in 2014 when even Redditors could tell the solution was to have Eastern Ukraine be a separate state so the coup gov wouldn’t be killing them for resisting. That’s what the people in the DPR and LPR were trying to do and were being bombed by the fascist state for it. At least Crimeans are free from it now ig.

Correct, and I strongly support our Ukrainian comrades in the DPR and LPR in their resistance against the fascist coup government.

It’s a shame that people who say they support “Ukraine” usually mean the 2014 fascist coup gov instead of the Ukrainian breakaway regions resisting it.

“Defense” is when you aid the overthrow of a government to replace it with a fascist one that kills eastern Ukrainians like in Donbass, DPR, LPR, and Crimea

Then they wonder why Crimeans overwhelming support Russia against the post-2014 fascist coup gov in Ukraine

But have you considered that those investing in genocide are human too

Translation: We only allow “protests” that are ineffective and don’t cause any trouble for the ruling class

There is no impartiality for genocide.

The Viet Cong killed hundreds in the same way, and so have all successful revolutionary groups in the past. Decolonization is violent, if you don’t like it don’t colonize in the first place.

Edit: And Hamas, even with their far less precise gear and without military superiority, has done a far better job avoiding killing civilians than the occupation has. The final death toll from the Oct 7 retaliation is now thought to be 695 Israeli “civilians” (mostly unarmed IDF conscripts), 373 armed IDF members, 71 foreigners and 36 children. While Israel has killed over 30 thousand Palestinians, 2/3 of whom are women and children.

Back when Colombia had a far-right government surrounded by leftist ones, Chavez called it the “israel of Latin America” for being a US puppet. Fascinating how things can change.

Maybe lemmy.world will have ads and NFTs at some point too lol

I don’t think that’s necessarily true. Tons of young people are communists. OP being politically illiterate doesn’t have to be for their age, though that’s likely part of it.

Seems like they’re just woefully misinformed, though anticommunism does just mean fascism.

And as people have mentioned here, it can take until you’re in your 40s for some to finally escape all the anticommunist propaganda they’ve been fed their whole lives in capitalist states.
