I’m envious of the way the French protest their government. They’re literally setting things on fire because their schools aren’t adequate. Because the government tried to raise the retirement age. Because their politicians are shitbags.

I think the biggest obstacle to organizing in the US is the sheer distance. It takes 40 solid hours of driving to get from one side to the other. That’s not counting any breaks. France takes about 14 hours. Doable in a day or so if you push it.

Anyway, I’d sign up for a Revolution if there was a serious contender.

      Lmao. Yes, I care so much about what a fascist who views foreigners as lesser beings thinks, that I couldn’t help but read it! And his beliefs in the inherent superiority of Americans is just so compelling and persuasive, I just couldn’t think of any possible counterargument!

      No. I don’t lie. I dismiss everything he says out of hand because he is a fascist. And if you agree with him, then you are too.

      If you reject the very notion of equality, why on God’s green earth would I give a rat’s ass what you think?

      It’s utterly insane for you to call me “privileged” for believing in equality! If you reject equality, then by that logic what the fuck would it matter if I’m “privileged?” By your logic, that just means I’m better than you. Because fuck equality, right? Don’t try to co-opt left-wing language while rejecting the fundamental premises of leftism.

        Blah blah blah. Words in people’s mouths because you’re too ignorant to speak intelligently on any subject.

        No. I don’t lie.

        You just alter what people have said to fit your narrative. So…lying?

        It’s funny because anyone that actually cares could look through my comment history and see that I regularly defend Palestinians and voted to try to limit their suffering as much as I could.

        Reviewing those comments would prove that you’re a lying sack of pathetic shit that has to rely on lying about people’s past comments, hoping that others won’t go digging to confirm that you’re a lying sack of pathetic shit.

        You’re a perfect example of why .ml users have the reputation that they do.

          Didn’t I already tell you? I’m proud that we have the reputation we do, among your kind. I take this as a compliment.

          Keep telling me how much you hate me, and I might start reading your whole comments. It fills me with pride that despicable, worthless, supremacist trash like yourself hates me. If you didn’t hate me, I would wonder what I’m doing wrong.

          "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal." If you reject that, then you aren’t even a liberal. What else could you be but a fascist?
