  • Half a point? This is completely the point! Overwhelmingly the reaction to these two events shows how backward and (frustratingly) indifferent the people of the US have become. As a socialist I don’t need to couch my utter disappointment with “well some of them are genuine” to make American comrades feel better. The hard truth is that there is work to be done, and nobody has more of a job to do than the western left in order to fix it.


  • He’s completely on the money this time and I don’t understand why it’s controversial. The level of outage over this has completely exposed how little the US “left” cares about the lives of non Americans. Even when it’s the same regime carrying out both actions, this one completely overshadowed the news and discussion while scores of innocent people in Venezuela were killed within goldfish memory. He’s making a remark about the lack of empathy they have for the third world, not condemning them for caring about this incident. Ideological consistency should be something every real leftist follows, and if you see all human lives as equal you would have been a hundred times more aggressive and outraged over Venezuela than what many of these people clearly have shown themselves to be.













  • Hey mate, I know what it’s like having reactionary family, it’s hard, heartbreaking, and disappointing. There’s no guarantee that you can change them, and at the end of the day it’s their decision and opinion, all you can do is show them your evidence, and whether they take it or not it’s entirely up to them.

    That being said, there’s something of a mismatch in your brother’s supposed viewing habits that I think you can use as a starting point. Badempanada actually did a very good piece on GDF, and how his content is deliberately presented to misrepresent the relationship between Israel, Judaism, and the US Empire in order to fuel his largely anti-Semitic audience. You could perhaps use that as a starting point to talk about the many contradictions in your brother’s logic and help him understand where he’s being misled.
