    Everyone has reasons to do propaganda but if you’re mostly exposed to western media then it’s definitely a good idea to fact check everything they say about their geopolitical enemies, because they’re always gonna be slandered to hell and even in countries with actual problematic leadership the idea isn’t to uncritically defend them but just push back against narratives that will never serve the people in those countries regardless






  • US and Israeli operations within Iran are as old as the current government.

    This is just my opinion, but as far as I understand it Iran can’t quit the war unless it gives massive concessions to the people who bombed children and their leadership on the first day of the war DURING NEGOTIATIONS. You can’t opt out of it because the US and Israel clearly won’t accept anything less than neoliberal policy under a puppet regime, they certainly won’t let a socialist government take power. So I believe the logical conclusion for socialists within Iran is to defend their country and people in a platform of national unity. Showing up in the defense of regular people is necessary for regular people to see that socialists actually care about them not dying.



  • I know what you mean, but lots of folks with personality disorders are fine, and most people with personality disorders are disproportionately more likely to be victims of abuse than abusers themselves. Similarly with crimes, stuff like stealing food for the value of ten bucks can put you in jail in some places, not to mention the criminalization of homelessness and the selective enforcement that targets racialized people more. I do agree that there’s lots of business people who are terrible but I don’t agree on the reasons.




  • I’m trans, disabled, unemployed and from/in Latin America, you asshole. Having principles isn’t a privilege, it’s the bare minimum. If you believe we’re less human than you and we can get killed so you get healthcare you suck. I’d sooner do precarious work that only puts me at risk than do that. There’s no universe in which what you’re saying makes sense. Grow up and stop making imperialist apologia.
