Now this is some race science I can get behind!

I'm curious if you have any resources about YIMBYism from a left wing perspective? I know it's a woefully incomplete solution and it's impossible to reform capitalism from the inside, but should leftists support YIMBY policies in the short term? Or does building more not actually reduce the rent for people? Also how does this play into gentrification?

Sorry, maybe this would be better as a separate post, but if you have any thoughts or articles I'd be curious to read more.

I think it's probably just us-foreign-policy guessing that they're gonna disrupt the event to encourage him to stop the genocide. Better to just kick out the dirty brown people than be confronted yet again on supporting and encouraging genocide.

I guess the short version is: I don't consider the parties engaged in genocidal rhetoric to be representative of Israel, and hope they won't be in a position to be representative of Israel for long.

Oh, so you don't consider the genocidal ruling party of Isn'treal to be representative of how you feel the country is? Go on, /r/neoliberal, tell us more about how you don't find western style domecracy to be representative of the will of the people.

Maybe instead of protecting the right to speech for genocidal ghouls, you should do something about the fascists in the country gui (though they're probably thinking more along the lines of vote )

I think this pretty accurately sums up why well-meaning neoliberals (if that's not a complete oxymoron) are unable to grapple with the idea that America bad. They view all the things that a country does that might be bad as just some bad actors, or one bad man in charge (see e.g. Trump, Netanyahu) without being able to see the bigger picture, which is of course

I might be wrong but I don't think lemmy.ml is a Marxist Leninist instance. You might be thinking of lemmygrad.ml which is. I'm not sure why lemmy.ml uses that top level domain.

It's worse than that: https://www.google.com/search?q=orange+county+median+income

Orange is a city in Orange County, and the county median income is even lower.
