remember when the common refrain was that illegal aliens don’t use public assistance. 

I love whenthe root parrots right wing rhetoric.

But the power to decide which parts of the report the public gets to see was apparently not enough for him

k. 

im differentaing “the people” in terms of unified polity vs human beings. If that’s what you are referring to. 

Honestly think you’re confused. I’m not citing anyone. But it seems like you’re intrigued because you never heard of this concept before.

Remember everyone, I’m the troll and we need esteemed Commentators like Roo who unironically thought that Steve Fucking Bannon was behind the Notre Dame fire to tell us who and what we should listen too.

uh, you were the one who mentioned “the people” first. 

Implying I have any power of making that philia, that’s not how it works chump.
I’ll say it again.

Which is the strawman, that he’s a communist or that he doesn’t believe in Nation State Sovereignty. Communists by definition don’t believe in Nation States, thus there is no strawman here. 

There’s that bad faith. Just as predicted. When we talk of “the people” we usually have in mind a certain bond between the people in that community. This has been described by Aristotle and Plato. Where in a Polity must have a “Philia” in order to be engaged. Shoving an amalgamation of disconnected, atomized people…

“the people” is doing an AWFUL lot of work on this flowery platitude. Rat.

Yeah if only the population consented to their presence in the first place. I mean I get it, you are a legit Communist. You don’t believe in Sovereign Nations, you don’t believe in Self Determination, so any policy that would weaken the sovereignty here you would agree with. Which is exactly what expanding voting…

I’ll state the obvious: voting is, unfortunately, a right only extended to U.S. citizens

sky scrapers the belong everywhere, belong nowhere. 

isn’t it kind of funny though that Al Jazeera pushes progressive news and commentary in the US. Like are we supposed to believe that these guys care deeply about progressive values. Kind of seems like an agitrop operation to me. 

of course you do, god forbid you ever get confronted with Black on White crimes outside your little roost at theRootdotCom. Enjoy your fiefdom here

no he’ saying the french govt wouldnt admit it.

The french government also hid the details of the Bataclan massacre from the public to quell public unrest, so it’s not like they have done this before.

it’s SplinterBell who is blinded by a hijab wearing African woman and feels the need to protect her at all costs. Even when she has so clearly crossed an unacceptable line.

remnants of the Vichy French, False Flag!
