No offense, but I think fetishizing movements in the imperial periphery is a way to absolve responsibility from people in the imperial core. Communism tells liberals they need to do more, Third Worldism tells Communists they need to do more. It's not a hierarchy based on who has to deal with the most suffering, it's a hierarchy of who gains more benefit from the current state of the world and therefore who has more responsibility and power to fix it. You are simply shoveling the responsibility to those who comparatively the hardest battles.

Hamas can't save us. That idea is the idea of Red Dawn -- the same silly fantasy that libs have about the poorest taking their things -- but for potential allies of the invading communist movement, rather than its enemies. It's Communist Big Mommy

There are rules against much of what trump is doing.

The rules you and I exist under are strictly policed and enforced. That is what most people think of when they think of rules. Liberals think of Big Mommy. The problem for liberals is that Big Mommy is not coming to save us. In reality our rules are enforced by a monopoly of violence done to us by the state, no such thing for those in the Ruling class in practice. For the Ruling Class the only enforcement is inter-class squabbles, oligarchs shiving oligarchs thru the state.

In as much the rules that Trump is breaking might as well be a completely different concept.

Yeah, but the lesson here is: if they don't read your theory they'll read theirs.

In Software this is called Cargo Cult Programming. Where programmers do things without knowing why they do them, simply because they've seen them in the code before.

perhaps I'm an ally of the JDPON after all.

There's often no difference in form of newly minted communists punching left against third worldism, and liberals punching left against communists. Newly minted communists are mad that third worldism is both correct in its observations and morals. Third worldism is taking away the new toy they found tells them why their lives should be better than they are. Same thing happens with liberals and liberalism in respect to communism.

Liberals see their place in society as cosmopolitan educated socialites. Communism reminds them they are in reality subjects of a capital order, whose only worth is based on the money they accumulate not on any acculturation, morality, or valor.

Communists see their place in society as "proletarians" (I'm using this loosely and not technically), a solidaristic class of the oppressed, not as a class of oppressors. Third Worldism reminds them that in reality they sit on the backs of a global proletariat living in even greater precarity than they do, and their emancipation as a proletariat cannot be moral or ideologically consistent if the global proletariat is not emancipated.

I would make the Red Dawn remake real

They've given us all Stands, it's up to you to awaken them. I've already at 3 bowls of cereal with my brain spoon after the news dropped.

In a decade this will go 1 of two ways, either these people will be hanged upside down in the street, or they'll be defended by Democrats as experienced bureaucrats and experts in the field of government efficiency.

They're not flagging research, they're flagging grant applications they typically don't have bias sections.

I've had some experience with the NIH process, and grant writing is actually 100% the same thing as resume padding. You'll have random people on the review boards complain that your grant doesn't touch on their favorite hobby horse.

In the grand scheme of things if this looks like all this is is swapping out terms, it's literally always been this way. It just wasn't made into official documents.

Sure this is idiotic, but this has been going on just unofficially for arbitrary things for years based on independent reviewers.

I appreciate you. I'm not easily bullied away from my principles and reason.

What I feel now is disappointment. I remember when we first were banned from reddit. The users themselves would moderate the foolish. It wasn't the first time I found such a culture. They all scale and fail. But, I thought chapo would sustain because they implemented solid communist ideology.

where we're going we don't need eyes to see
