In all seriousness his Chapelle show bits are one of the best eulogies I can think of for a person

I just don't cook it so much it stops being chewy. Crispy bacon is bullshit. A big thick fatty strip you can really gnaw on is delightful.

I can only imagine how much effort they're putting into avoiding actually using the word communist

Hell PPG has even tweeted about how he thinks it's shitty

I know quite a few people involved in radical politics who've said getting into organizing is a big part of what stopped them from drinking themselves to death. It hasn't quite stopped me yet but I think there's definitely something to that idea of replacing one sort of obsessiveness with another.

Ok if this is the point you're actually making I retract my previous statement cause I agree entirely with this. Fuck this movie for sure.

Yeah I'm a Marxist-Leninist whose generally pretty critical of anarchism but I still recognize it as being socialist. The only people who don't are folks who think socialism means Bernie Sanders and anarchism means fifteen year old sex pistols fans

You know the YPG are socialists themselves and expressly ask for international volunteers right? Or do you have no actual knowledge on the subject and just love to talk shit about leftists at any possible opportunity?

I mean ancoms are socialists albeit libertarian ones and I'm pretty sure there aren't a bunch of like stirnerites or post leftists or whatever fighting with the YPG. Pretty much everyone I know in the leftist circles I run in uses socialist as a catch all term when referring to both anarchists and communists since we

Really looking forward to this completely misrepresenting the Kurdish struggle as a whole and the actual reasons most of the international volunteers are even there.

I was about to say this.

Yeah fuck you then. No person is illegal.

If you'd been alive when the Nazis were rising to power you'd have been calling out the folks forcibly resisting them for being too violent and making the movement look bad. You can't snark or debate fascists out of power only beat them out of it. Drop the liberal respectability bullshit and move left or admit you

I mean I'm not gonna argue with you about all the merits of no platforming fascists, you're clearly not a fan of the left so I'm just gonna say this again. He was going to out undocumented students. By physically preventing him from speaking the protestors yes including the black bloc kids kept those students safe. It

Milo was gonna out undocumented students at that speech. The people who violently prevented him from speaking and doing that are heroes and if you're more concerned about civility than protecting those students I think your priorities are very much in the wrong place

Yup. People really want to believe in their mythical good billionaires though, otherwise they might have to actually confront the whole capitalism thing

Opiates are the only thing that can't get their claws into me. Booze, speed, benzos whatever I will (and do) take all those way too far but painkillers just make me so itchy and vomity I can't do it. Body chemistrys weird.

Yeah I don't really understand how this is a question. He would commit genocide if given the chance he deserves far worse

Glad to see weird leftist twitter is finally getting the av club coverage it deserves. All power to the dirtbags!
