Celebrity culture changes platforms, but remains the same.

Under what Marxist rubric is a personal residence — not one used to collect rent or as a means of production — considered private, and not personal, property? As a communist, I’m not sure where you’re coming from with that.

While I understand where you’re coming from, I think you’re using “liberalism” in the colloquial US manner where it means “anything vaguely to the left of hard-right” rather than its actual meaning — consider that “neoliberalism” reentered popular and academic discourse in specific reference to Pinochet’s Chile, which…

liberalism is the ideology that arises out of capitalism. it is rooted in the defense of private property and individualism. two things fascists then and now claim (and do) defend. case and point is milton friedman, the neoliberal, defending pinochet or how about this quote from mises, a self professed “classic…

If you want to be able to access therapy AND you want to be able to call or text your therapist when necessary, enter DBT; dialectical behavior therapy includes crisis counseling by phone in addition to weekly therapy sessions. This is a huge part of treatment for chronically dysregulated folks or people who struggle…

Private industry has literally devastated the world, inherently requires the exploitation of its workers for profit, and inevitably concentrates wealth in the hands of the worst people on the planet in an unholy marriage between global finance capital and military imperialism, so I do, personally. That said, the goal…

Telehealth organizations that provide therapy are also SUPER shady in another way: the research doesn’t support this kind of work as being effective. It’s probably better than nothing, but you are not receiving empirically-supported care when you use these sorts of therapy apps. They may be good for some kind of…

Liberals who love to bring up parallels to 1930s Germany always seem to forget the whole part where liberals allied with fascists in opposition to the left.

You’re not the devil, but you don’t seem to know the difference between private and personal property, the latter (which includes things like your house and your car) continuing to exist under Marxian socialism.

to be right wing is to defend the status quo because you benefit from it in some form or another. liberals, defender of private property rights and economic system that derives from it (capitalism), thoroughly defend the economic status quo (capitalism) are therefore on the right. that’s why they always choose fascism…

HamNo, it’s worth noting that Bolsonaro’s meteoric ascension wouldn’t be possible without the support of the mainstream press in Brazil, which specializes the following:

That is remarkably incorrect.

I mean, yeah, why can’t we just tell off-color insulting jokes aimed at mocking already disenfranchised groups of fellow citizens instead of, oh, I don’t know, treating everyone with respect regardless of whether you’re able to understand the complex issues facing each individual that you, yourself, have never had to…

There is no way this is accurate.  Hitler was a nationalist.  Marxism doesnt allow for authoritarian nationalism. It kind of doesnt jive with the “Nationless, workers of the world international unite” vibe.

There is literally nothing worse than higher taxes to a huge class of rich people. They will happily endorse any and all atrocities in the pursuit of freedom from taxes and regulation.

I’d like to say one thing in regards to this: Many people need help. Mental health issues are very real, and they can lead to drastically life altering consequences if not properly dealt with. If you are suffering from one, minor things can feel like the end of the world, especially if they show up after anything that…

True, though I think it bears noting that this has always been the case, and has nothing to do with Trump. The only bearing Trump has on the whole Brazil situation is to change the rhetoric used to pump up the elites’ preferred fascist from “anti-communist” to “populist”.

the right always falls in line and supports fascism, liberals always forget because *they are also part of “the right”*

The FBI is compromised. As is the Supreme Court. Just like the White House. Soft coup and MSM and pundits don’t even have a response.

Good article, but I question calling the Better Business Bureau a “watchdog.” They’ve been caught up in pay to play schemes before, and were under fire in 2010 for changing the ratings of non-dues paying members:
