In other words, you are stating the obvious but pretending to be profound. Sounds about right.

I'm not pretending to be profound, just literature. Stating the obvious is something very controversial among the left, in fact sometimes they will call it hate speech.

Yes, you are. And no, it isn't. But you always seemed like the type to paint a group as ignorant to shirk off responsibility to actually have proper arguments past twitter posts.

[Mardla]

Eh, he got convicted for being a Nazi, essentially

No, he drove a car into a bunch of counter protesters. That is why he is in prison. You can't go to prison just for shitty political views.

Sure you can if that's the motive for your conviction. That's certainly the motive for convicting him of premeditated murder instead of manslaughter.

Why would I need to make an argument when you just said my position was obvious?

Manslaughter is about accidentally killing someone.
That guy literally made the decision to drive his car into a group of counter-protesters - that ain't manslaughter, that's murder.

No, manslaughter includes doing violence leading to death under some circumstances to. I really doubt he would get premeditated murder if political convictions weren't involved.

[Mardla]

Just pretend for a moment it's someone who drove at a crowd of Nazis because they were closed in and felt threatened.

I already knew manslaughter included violence that lead to someone's death if you didn't intend to kill them.
But I don't see how that bastard didn't intend to kill someone when he decided to drive his car into a group of counter-protesters.

That's not what happened, and it was clearly premeditated, as he posted on social media about his desire to kill people in the crowd.

Why would we pretend that?

The definition you gave was obvious, but so broad it basically means nothing. Human nature includes A LOT. We eat food, we shit, we piss, we sleep, we mate....

Your definition is obvious, because it is so broad and trivial.

Imperialism isn't destroying the world.

Tell that to the people in Syria or Yemen.

[Democratic Communist Federation]

This is true enough. although its also true that Imperialism is killing lots of people, and making life crap for even more.

If one happens to live in the industrialized world, it is unlikely that one will notice the degree to which imperialism is literally destroying the world.

Those two countries do not comprise the world. Nobody cares about them.

[Democratic Communist Federation]

Prussian Socialism is definitely the superior brand. We have welfare, we have nationalism, we have some form of egalitarianism.

To belabor the obvious, Prussia also no longer exists.

[Democratic Communist Federation]

Bernie is a communist though, as red as they come. He's a pinko.

lol. Then why does almost every communist I know, myself included, despise everything he stands for.

Reformism is an easy way to draw the ire of radicals.

[Democratic Communist Federation]

are there more right-wingers in this thread than left-wingers? lol

Sometimes I wonder.

Nobody cares about them? Well, you just revealed a great deal about yourself in that statement, whether intentionally or not.

I'm appreciating isolationism more and more. I don't care about Syria and Yemen, and I have no reason to.

Reformism is an easy way to draw the ire of radicals.

I have no idea of what the means, but if it makes you happy, go for it. I feel no ire for anyone. I do, however, despise certain positions.

What is preferable, revolution or reform?

[Democratic Communist Federation]

What is preferable, revolution or reform?

Preferable, reform. Realistic, revolution.

And I still don't understand how someone who identifies with right-libertarianism does not care about the liberties of people in Yemen or Syria. Quite confusing.

Is it the responsibility of western powers to overthrow Assad? If not, we leave them to authoritarianism. If so, we embrace "imperialism".
I care about their liberties insofar as they're willing to fight for them.
