It’s overpopulated when the west talks about Africa, India, China, Mexico and the poors. It’s underpopulated when it talks about suburban white people who buy iphones.

so just more liberal idpol, then. gotcha.

I’d swap the captions on the top two panels

I’d say that’s a poor analysis that ignores the profit motive and nature of capital. Cost to consumers and cost of production is really a function of profit-seeking, since capital will use maximalist solutions at both ends for the purpose of infinite profit growth. The bias there, however, is essentially racism.

Short answer? Capitalism.

I’m still waiting for my first check from lemmy

Best use of this meme so far

torture program created and implemented by the administration of President George W. Bush.

Yep. No prior incidence of CIA or military torture policy. Only the last 20 years has this happened. I am a very smart journalist.

A paperweight that decapitates US military pilots is objectively the coolest paperweight money can buy.

Florida is actually doing the most to combat climate change. Science has proven that simply rejecting the agenda of the radical green zealots lowers the global average temperature by 0.0001°C. Putting a “FUCK WOKE” sticker on your truck doubles that effect. There are big carbon offsets from denying construction workers water and shade. I hear there’s new research going into the the climate effects of thoughts and prayers too. It’s an all-fronts climate action powerhouse!

I agree with you on her being shafted. And yeah, it’s sad since she’s not a terrible person or a grifter.

I just feel like there are a lot of lessons, particularly those of the black civil rights movement, that she doesn’t want to learn from. I guess she thinks she’s too smart or professional for radicalism or a material analysis of the fake-left “progressive” movement she want to rise within.

Virgil had no credibility or political purchase, so it was pretty odd to me that they started that podcast. Seems like everyone else had enough sense to ignore him. Tried listening to a little and it was just a whoosh of co2. I half expect she’ll join TYT at some point.

In her interview with that zionist, she had a lot of opportunity to absolutely shred that bullshit; Finklestein would have and they’ve spent enough time together that she should know better. Although I’ve seen her scowl at Finklestein enough times, too.

There are plenty of people with lame politics so I have trouble deciding why I expect more. Maybe I keep wanting to see a new generation of black panthers, instead of someone who doesn’t want to cross the invisible line. Going against the imperial narrative in US media is hazardous to your career, for sure. There’s room for her if she wants to move left, but the forces of capital won’t let her use their media monopoly to undermine their interests.

She’s not even particularly impressive or interesting as a supposed “left-ish” media figure. She’s an ivy league lawyer, has plenty of bad lib takes, and adjunct to the controlled opposition like sanders and aoc. You’d think the dems would maybe see her as useful, but the left edge of the US overton window is a chainsaw.

I agree with you on Patreon not being worth much of anything beyond the actual user content. But Patreon is not ideologically guided; it’s just a lib tech company looking for a way to skim a little money. Whatever notions of Freeze Peach they claim to care about will wither the moment the ADL threatens to call them anti-semetic or funding khkhkhamas. The Patreon C-suite knows that banning a few publicly smeared lefties will cost them less than ending up on an ADL boycott list or getting tiktok’d.

Damn, it’s almost like identity politics are an illusion

I was like, yo, where’s the CIA logo?? then I was like, oh wait, 2/3rds of them are.

The road to fascism is always paved by liberalism

not giving Israel all of germany europe is anti-semitic. probably.
