China testing missiles is really not comparable to the US bombing the Middle East dozens times a day.

How many people do you think China has killed vs the US? Because I’m pretty sure the US wins by that metric (as in the US killed more people).

Also it’s pretty ironic to comment on Chinese hegemony when USians literally learn in school that they’re the center of civilisation and the heroes in every war. Even in Europe we now have to learn that the US was our grand liberator from the nazis while it was actually the Russians who liberated most of Europe.

Quite an interesting comment from someone defending US imperialism. Please tell us why we should fear China more than the US.

China existing does not excuse any US crimes, and that’s what my comment was about after all.

Don’t you guys call this ‘whataboutism’? Anyways, I’m less concerned with China than the US since China hasn’t dropped a single bomb in decades while the US drops dozens a day in the middle east.

How did you know her? I knew her as terrorisor of the middle east and I’m pretty sure that’s still true.

Ukraine is so fucked. With their infrastructure bombed, men killed and all social infrastructure and natural resources sold off to private/foreign investors.. And the rich still profit off of all of this misery.

It’s not. Germany is Israel’s 2nd biggest supporter after the US in terms of sending weapons and criminalising antizionism

As others said, labels don’t make you interesting, being interesting does. Experiment with your identity on- and offline (as in your style, your pronouns, learned behaviours or otherwise). Also try to read/listen/watch more about trans experiences to learn how your feelings relate to trans people and why it’s harmful to appropriate trans culture. Wishing you had a penis can be considered queer and it’s definitely a feeling I’d explore more. Your statements do sound similar to what I used to say about myself before I realised I was transmasc.

Capitalism is an inherently unstable system due to the contradictions that define it. Scapegoats are necessary to prevent working class from rising up, and economic conditions in the US have gotten so bad that most people no longer care about sustaining the status quo. So I don’t think the current rise of fascism could have been prevented without a socialist alternative.

Also Biden had already changed the geopolitical landscape when he openly funded an (even domestically) deeply unpopular genocide.

‘Western style democracy’ has never been truly democratic because of how money influences elections and politicians. True democracy isn’t possible as long as there exists a capital class in society. The capital class will not give up its wealth without a class war.
