The world can be condensed to two categories: ‘good’ people and ‘bad’ people. The only quality you need to have to be good is to serve to capitalist interest. Being a war criminal apparently doesn’t disqualify you, nor does being a massive abusive shit.
Average “progressive” liberal picking a bunch of unrelated people from the last few centuries and dividing them into good and bad.
That’s basically it, isn’t it? Just pick a bunch of people, arrange them by vibes (conveniently provided by the media) and call it a day
moviebrain is effective at killing anything radical because of how stupid it makes people
Seriously, 90s dad who yelled at you to go turn off the TV and play outside might have been on to something.
Ayup, exactly that. Marvel brain is not an exaggeration
and be trusted by everyone without questions. Meanwhile saying “maybe stalin was not the worst person ever” and you get told the most vile reactionary shit.
I can’t stand seeing comrade Stalin on the same plain as Andrew fucking tate
the modern names are just a bunch of forgettables. Liberals don’t get just irrelevant to history they are. Stalin liberated a third of the world from capitalism, industrialized a peasant economy into the space age, and defeated the Nazis during the greatest war in human history, and who exactly is Andrew Tate again?
An argument between the two most insightful American thinkers. Truly an honour to witness it.
Is DSA meant to be the Democratic Socialists of America? Besides not being “a person,” they aren’t exactly enthusiastic about anything other than being The New Young Democrats. Seriously, their commitment to electoralism and reform should make them stellar Good Guys^TM to this person.
It’s the word “socialist”. Socialism = bad, so anything with “socialist” in its name is bad.
More like: most intelligent American political discourse (at least this guy knows the names of some foreign leaders).
What is he getting at? “Think about it” implies that he’s making some sort of connection but there is no common thread between anybody in either section.
Let me just throw a bunch of names up in a red vs blue list
Keir Starmer? Good?
Granted, if there was no team infighting. Team “Bad Guys” would absolutely stomp team “Good Guys” in a team deathmatch.
“Myanmar generals” really epitomizing how online political “experts” don’t know jack shit about anything they talk about. If we’re great-manning this shit, how about a couple names, Mr. Pavlou?
(This guy in particular probably threatened to bomb a Chinese embassy and got kicked out of his uni for harassing other students. Shocker!)
If you have an American president on a list of good people, your opinions on anything are invalid.
Except for William Henry Harrison (he died)
Well, a bit of an exaggeration, of course. It’s not like I knew them and there were bound to be some decent people among the early ones.
Oh no… Harrison was a slave owner that grew up on his family plantation. That’s only the tip of the iceberg, as he was simply a rotten person.
The previous user said he was good only because Harrison died 31 days into his term, making him the shortest acting US President.
Oh, there I go not getting the joke…
I really can’t tell if the first tweet is sarcastic or not. I’m going to assume it’s not.
It isn’t.
Who are Khamenei, Viktor Orban, General Mark Milley, Joe Manchin and Keir Starmer?
Khamenei - Supreme Leader of Iran
Viktor Orbán - Hungarian far-right politician and current Prime Minister of Hungary. He is a contrarian and nationalist that while critical of the West, only does so for racist, nationalist, and capitalistic reasons.
General Mark Miley - US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Highest and most powerful leadership position in the US military behind the President.
Joe Manchin - Fuck all bumbling Democratic House Representative that votes Republican every chance he gets. Many democrats blame him for tanking bills for healthcare, minimum wage, etc. He is a puppet controlled opposition that comes from a multi-billionaire energy corporation family. Basically an American Saudi Prince.
Starmer - UK labour politican.
Victor Orban - Russian black market arms dealer, recently released in a prisoner exchange for a WNBA player, which caused much uproar in the US.
Wait what
I think they got confuse between Viktor Orban and Viktor Bout, Viktor Orban is the Hungarian Prime Minister
My mistake you’re right, I’ll change that right away. Answering questions on Lemmy first thing in the morning might not be the best idea lol
