I'd never known this was a thing I could do! I'll have to look into this as I have a good few comfy warm socks that could use repairing!

Reality: On 4 February 1938 a wave of strikes began by dock workers in Hawaii demanding equal pay with dockers on the West Coast of the United States, and a union shop. The strike ended with police shooting 50 unarmed workers in the Hilo massacre. This is a history of the events: https://libcom.org/history/hilo-massacre-1938

Oh man, Asians hate so many other Asians so ferverently it's impressive. I knew a Japanese girl whose mom threatened to disown her if she dated any "Chinese hell bastards" (which was in fact, every Chinese person.)

This is her posing for a recreation of her swearing in.
In 1968, Shirley Chisholm became the first Black woman elected to Congress. In 1972 she became the first Black candidate to run for a major party's nomination for president (and the first woman to run for the Democratic nomination.)
While she struggled to be taken seriously by the Democratic establishment, she had no illusions about her presidential run but said she did it "in spite of hopeless odds... to demonstrate the sheer will and refusal to accept the status quo."
Taxing a guy who saves the world on a regular basis seems rude.
Your last post is a TIL once you have peed yourself, public transit has all sorts of unspoken rules.
This is what I always find amusing about the Communist argument.
Like, the elected politicians and bureaucracy can't be trusted enough to regulate industry under capitalism so we'll centralize things and then trust them to regulate industry under Communism?
Edit: whoof, should've thought about human nature when I dared to criticize communism. Almost lime there is another lesson somehwere there.
so, it's the goddamn weekend. How does everyone have so much free time this late on a Saturday? I'll do my best to get back to y'all on a dirty capitalist's time slot.
This is mind bogglingly dumb. You should hear what trump et al are talking about re: Israel.
This both sides nonsense is childish at best and demonstrates an utter lack of understanding or perhaps willfull ignorance.
Or, given your absurd postinf history, a group of folks as part of a larger operation to sow distrust in democratic institutions etc. The dumber stuff I see from you the more I lean to the latter.
I think the "oh, fuck, that was an invitation!" moment several minutes/hours after the fact is one of the most universal moments.
could reply that eating food falls well within a communist system, therefore you can't blame communism for famines.
Try again when you're sober, that's not a particular cogent argument.
A carbon tax falls well within a capitalist system (much the same as any other tax or method of dealing with externalities) so I'd put that as a failure of democratic systems more than anything.
I'm also not convinced communism would actually solve the problem. Communists have historically been pretty reluctant to share bad news, from letting folks know about mass starvations to, oh, most of the world news in China.
Yeah but deciding not to vote for Biden just feels like a good trendy way to express my sympathies with Palestineans... /s

Or, they only collect the dead ones from the surface. There's probably a veritable mountain of lifejacketless corpses on the silt.
