I have never understood the cishet obsession with virginity.

Yanks won’t like South African cooking, then…

This is not NSFW.

Eco-fascists unite, huh?

How long do any of you idiots upvoting this think it’ll be until these (so-called) “rangers” start selling rhino horn themselves? That is… if they haven’t already and this is really just them clearing out the competition?

Somaila would like to disagree.

The fact that the US considers Oreos edible is enough reason to resist US neocolonialism.

Oh look, a person that cannot distinguish politics from vehicular activity. I wonder how you manage to drive anywhere without ever turning left.

Both words, “extremist” and “right-wing”, have no real hard definitions.

No, right-wing ideology has a very hard and clear-cut definition - all politics that protects power and privilege. It really doesn’t get any simpler than that.

Is being socially conservative right wing?

It’s not supposed to be… but the only people self-applying the term in the US are fascists.

Is supporting capitalism right wing?

Yes. Period.

anti-racist and pro-trans left wing?

That’s not progressive - that’s radicalism.

Is socialism left wing? Is only communism left wing?

Yes.

Is someone an extremist if they condone violence?

No.

Is someone an extremist if they seek to change the system fundamentally?

No, that’s radicalism.

Is someone an extremist if their political beliefs are very strongly held, no matter what they might be?

No.

He looked pretty extremist to me when he helped the Bush regime lie their way into Iraq. And the guy literally chose a pig to be his running mate.

Doesn’t get more extreme than that - him pretending to be “nicer” than the more overt right-wingers doesn’t change that.

Oh look… an “enlightened centrist” has shown up to run interference for the right-wingers.

There is such a thing as a “non-extremist” right-winger?

Doesn’t take a lot to make a right-winger project, does it?

Tell me you’re attracted to men without telling me you’re attracted to men.

liberals tend to want to shift capitalism towards something more equitable

No, they don’t - they try to reform capitalism to head off revolt against the capitalist status quo. That is why liberal reforms to capitalism (at best) only makes life better for a certain part of the working class - see how Roosevelt’s GI Bill left black vets and their communities out in the cold for an example. When this fails to protect the capitalist order, liberal-types will happily co-operate with fascists to violently repress the working class - see Weimar Germany for an example of that.

If you are the reading type, I’d suggest Clara Mattei’s The Capital Order: How Economists Invented Austerity and Paved the Way to Fascism - I haven’t encountered anyone who explains the history as well as she does.

Liberals are not your friends - Malcolm X was perfectly accurate when he described them as “smiling foxes.”

Have you noticed how liberalism is always pro-capitalism?

This is true… but with some corporations it’s just a case of “fuck you in particular.”
