The proof that the UK isn't transphobic is the Monty Python lumberjack bit.

"I am immune to propaganda but you're not"

I am so sad we'll never see the WonderLab characters again

I would love some examples here. The Soviets conducted elections. The Chinese conduct elections. The Koreans conduct elections. The Cubans conduct elections. The Vietnamese conduct elections.

Comrades in this election you may democratically vote for the one candidate from our party, as the opponent tragically fell out of a window.

And I pointedly disagree with this. When you say "I am a socialist but every other socialist government was bad" you are severely undercutting your own argument right out of the gate.

When you associate yourself with authoritarian hellholes you become an unhinged weirdo to 90% of the population.

It's not the 1960s anymore, we know what these countries are/were like and if you really want to simp for them then don't be surprised people think you hate democracy.

Keep up the good work o7

I don't necessarily disagree with your main point.

Though the arguments you make will not work on anyone who doesn't already agree with you.

You kinda cope in there by saying that the governments that called themselves socialist in the past were democratic, which is kind of not true for a lot of them. There's degrees to it but for the most part they weren't.

I think it's smarter for us to distance ourselves from those governments as they ultimately didn't really represent our views, not mine at least.

The other problem is the Engels On Authority ass first paragraph, equating use of violence with authoritarianism.

When you do thay you kinda just come off as an authoritarian if people aren't already familiar with your definitions (similar to using the phrase dictatorship of the proletariat.)

The argument is also just silly and I wish I could go back in time and stop it from entering the material world but I am too lazy to write about it. A lot of libertarian communists have written about it over the past century so you can probably fish something up if you look.

Cheaper enthusiast keyboards can actually be really good right now.

Rainy75 is kinda crazy.

MLs when they get to play wet biscuit with a copy of On Authority

it's mostly a problem in the situation where a person goes "Racism is over, you shouldn't complain"

You can't dismiss the power that race has in people's lives to this day because institutional racism still exists, and the consequences of the more overt institutional racism of the past are still in effect.

I don't think you necessarily need to have a whole species be one alignment for it.

Just having the culture of a specific community aligned a certain way (ideally with a reason) is more interesting than "all x do bad stuff because they're bad and they like badness."

That's kinda silly of you to say
