Politico, or any other outlet for that matter, can have a shitty editorial line on some things, and do quality reporting on other things.

You should be paying attention to the substance of the accusation here, which is about as credible as it gets. Not blowing it off because it’s from an outlet you dislike for a different reason.

And just like… Occam’s Razor, the guy with the SS tattoo being a bad guy isn’t exactly a wild leap of logic.

There’s even a famous skit about the exact symbol Platner had a tattoo of.

Am I glad I don’t listen to these Grahan Platner fans often

Is this your only insult? Are you stupid? Do you think an iraqi Communist has any positive things to say about Graham fucking Platner?

Log off, lmao

Bad Empanada is fucking embarrassing 💀

You should listen to this podcast episode which argues that Cuba did not, in fact, “rescind its communist policies”, and that Cuba has long been navigating the constraints of the blockade in various ways, for decades

Political power grows from Based Tankie Posting -Mao ZeDank

She’s already in power.

She’s literally not though. She won a primary and is essentially garunteed to win, being in a safe blue district, but she’s not in power yet.

Let’s see what she does.

Yeah, I mean, no shit. I don’t think any of the people you tagged disagree with this. We are (or I least I am) saying that your litmus test is decidedly posting-brained

The Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims etc etc. If she really still believes these things, she won’t try to pretend she doesn’t.

I see your point, but making undeleting her tweets as a sign of her true radicalism is a real “Tell me you think posting is praxis without telling me that you think posting is praxis” kind of cringe.

The reality of the situation is that she’s running for elected office, and that requires cleaning up your image, especially in the internet age. And quite frankly, Any ML running for office should be using it as an opportunity to teach the masses. The masses shouldn’t be learning about Marxism from a Fox News host frothing at the mouth over your dank Lenin meme.

The “But her emails” crowd loves drone strikes on brown people though

Nah, your comment still sucks shit, sarcasm or not

He doesn’t have the eyebrow game going on

Suck my girl dick

Oklahoma is the most tragic state in the union, it’s like if the avarice of America manifested itself into reality as a state

Oklahoma is where we forced a bunch of the continent’s indigenous peoples, only to have them be lorded over by the most unhinged white people America has to offer.

Spec Ops: The Line becoming real 💀💀💀

The root cause is more “believing things without evidence” or “not recognizing when you’re being conned.”

I don’t even think that’s correct. Problems like war, social stratification, etc. Don’t come down to people’s wrong beliefs. They’re material.

“Not recognizing when you’re being conned” can’t be a root problem because it begs the question, why are people conning others in the first place? What systemic factors are incentivizing that behavior?

This is my issue with ‘anti-theism’ as a position. It’s entirely idealist and focuses entirely on people believing the wrong things, and not at all on the material factors that drive those beliefs to begin with.

Yes, but when you add a whole other testament, featuring even more teachings of Christ, than surely there’s something distinct about that theological baseline of Mormons from your average Christian

You don’t genuinely believe that the only people who circumcise their babies are people who believe in God, do you?
