"You can always do an Italian accent it's never racist" meme but edited to say "You can always be a vulgar marxist it's always morally correct"

OMFG, Phil Ochs justified again!

Yes, I read New Republic and Nation
I've learned to take every view
You know, I've memorized Lerner and Golden
I feel like I'm almost a Jew
But when it comes to times like Korea
There's no one more red, white and blue
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal

I have a very, very nice bottle of scotch I'll be happy to share.

I've been a communist from the 80s and I still can't spell bouillabaisse without looking it up.

A picture of Gene Simmons playing a serial killer from the movie Runaway.

Matewan as a failure of lingustic purity because they made the distinction between bourgeoise and proletariat as "them's that work and them's that don't."

People understand pretty instinctively the difference between class distinctions, propaganda gets in the way, not language touchstones.

The statement is sort of blandly dogmatic. Endlessly turning the conversation back to an argument of that essentially relies on the errata of utilizing terms correctly is a non-starter for most people, including most of my old bookclub from the 80s. You might as well hold up the old movie ...

Addicted?

Also for the record, there is no credible intelligence that says Iran even had a nuclear arms program.

Oh good.

When your kid dies for Israeli aggression, will you still vote for the Democrats who have done nothing to stop it?

I mean, she's probably as qualified as any of Trump's other picks.

JFC, I know where that is.

And I'm not surprised at all.

When you lie down with rats....

While I'm sure that some of the propaganda mixed with the atrocious conditions of the poor in the US still act as de facto draft I think the effect is way, way overblown in the defense of the US military service members. This isn't pre-Internet, you can see the travesties in stark colors online.

Thinking about this one a bit more.

I'd say.... two decades. Anyone else placing bets?

Yeah, but this is an urban center. They don't have pig farms local like I do.

For the record, I have never in my life felt threatened by someone of Muslim faith.

Ever.

"I voted for the other fascist" is not the win.

That's a feature, not a flaw.

Technically unqualified. Worms cannot serve in the US military.

If this had been the premise of international relations between the West and Iran since say 1953....

By all rights it should sink the Democrats as well so that we can then get rid of both arms of the right-wing American Empire.

Oof, what a waste of Iranian bullets.

Maybe just let their boats sink in the ocean?

The fundamental way the Western Elite are focused on destroying their own future is amazing.

When this is all over don't forget to forget US veterans like the US does after every war for the rich.

Brain dead. The victims of the rich in America aren't a cover for the victims of the rich world wide.

The rich are just monsters who will kill and f*** kids whether on Epstein's Island or at a girl's school in Iran.

Grow up.

First as a tragedy, then as...

Well, this.
