Lets also not forget that Nuremberg was woefully inadequate and failed to push Nazi collaborators out of power.
“The Nuremberg trials could try only a small sampling of major Nazi war criminals. German restitution negotiations were bound to have an unhappy ending, since no payments could possibly erase the harm or painful memories. No problems related to the Holocaust could be resolved quickly or adequately. Nor could they be swept under the carpet and be expected to disappear.” ~Benjamin B. Ferencz, Chief Prosecutor of the US Army for the Einsatzgruppen Trial"


Good to hear. Now I’m confident that the US definitely won’t succumb to mission creep and get sucked into an interminable war that will end countless thousands of lives.


Thanks for the insight.


Great. Now i can get that “real book feeling” of wrestling the books pages to lie flat enough for me to read them as I lay down.


So you’re saying that thorn guy might be on to somthing?


If some manager at a store can find the huevos do it, your state politicians can find em too. js.


So… no more Irish or Norwegian immigrants?


I can’t decide if Trump thinks this will make him look like less of a lame duck when the vote passes the house, or if Trump is trying to reverse psychology them out of it.
I’m being less than 100% precise here. The line I’m drawing is that abolition of private property rights is co-terminus with abolition of capitalism.
“Ask them ‘what’s more important, human rights or property rights’. If they reply 'property rights are human rights, they’re on the right”.
e: I’m just going to add explicitly, since there’s clearly some confusion looking at the other sister comments. It’s not about monarchism or any of that. Its two things: Property rights and social hierarchies. If you want em gone, you’re on the left. from that perspective you need not change the definition of left and right in 1799 and 1848, and all the same from Maréchal to Mélenchon.
I mean, its not really a purity test. It’s just kind of definitions. The political terms “right” and “left” have meant the same thing since the French Revolution. Democrats are not left wing. We can have a whole bunch of ancillary discussions about whether that means people should or shouldn’t vote for them, which I’m not interested in having, but i struggle to see how one could argue in good faith that the Democrats are left wing. Its really not even clear that Ocasio-Cortez or Sanders are “left wing” since neither seems to oppose private property rights, nor do they advocate for the weakening or abolishment of capitalism - the traditional dividing line of left and right.


what’s the old saying? “Never underestimate the ability of Democrats to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory”


I add a chatbot to it.


I read that as “We’re afraid of shouldering even a single gram of risk here, so we’re instead gonna let the brownshirts squat in our building”


I’ve been waiting for something like this so we can see who’s heads roll when AI fucks up. I figured we’d see doctors and lawyers losing their licenses first, but maybe it’ll be this. So, who shoulders the blame when a program that can’t learn from its mistakes fucks up a quarter of the internet?


I used to be a scientist and I’m a science teacher now, and science is 100% a social construct. I could go through examples of how our modern interpretation of science is based on western philosophy that is a few thousand years younger than science itself as a practice, and how this limits the scope of modern science in a materially significant way. I could go into other examples too. But you really should just go watch Dr.Fatima’s two videos “Gravity is a Social Construct, and That’s Okay”, and “Astronomy has a Colonialism Problem” on YouTube, because she does the most phenomenal exploration of the topic, and I could only (poorly) approximate the quality of her work here.


It’s so funny that these two are “negotiating peace”. Like, did they forget the plot line or something? They aren’t at war. Netanyahu bombed the negotiators with the people that one of them is at war with?! Like, they’re two granpas playing dolls on a public stage and everyone is watching.

If this keeps up Chuck Schumer is gonna have to capitulate without even grandstanding about “reaching across the aisle” and meeting with Trump. Rough time to be Chuck.
Someone finally listend to their lawyers
