"the left indoctrinates people into hate"

obligatory COINTELPRO mention to throw more fuel on the fire

“False mistrust with the police” my sides

"the left hates police!"
t. the side responsible for waco, ruby ridge, and basically every other standoff

@DA GOMMIE JOO see? You show that you have been manipulated because you linked a statistic about unarmed people that were killed by police without the context of the statistic about the percentage of violent crime each race committed (it's not equal)

I think you saw a source that only showed stats you linked without context

I do believe you actually believe what you are saying but it is not correct

Yikes look at these people

@Apple O'Day do you have any arguments to make?

>ignores every point except the one about race and crime rates

so I guess that whole "the right is perfectly capable of and is indeed often responsible for hate and violence" bit went right over your head

Hello

Jim Fucking Sterlin

Yes I do have arguements to make but I don't have lots of time to look back

The USA today story is a single case which is irrelevant to a discussion about national trends

The npr story is a single case which is irrelevant to a discussion about national trends

The rest were memes

As for Venezuela there are always going to be excuses

Next time socialism fails it will be due to... X

Then it will be due to... Y

The reality is... That it is socialism and not X or Y

@(import (srfi 151)) if you want me to make an arguement then say something in response to my initial statement that is substantial enough to argue with

Ok done for now

I like that the server is more of a politics server now

so the complete collapse of exports had nothing to do with the collapse of the venezuelan economy?

Of course it did!

Let's say Japan was a 3rd world country still and had one of the worst economies...

And you said it was because of atomic bombs being dropped

Like yes, but they should be better by now, I would say, and it reflects poorly on them

Then you say: You are just ignorant and don't understand how much damage that bomb caused.

It's basically what's happening now with other subjects

"Hey look at this other factor that had an effect". This negative outcome is *completely* due to that

holy shit this place is basically 80% right wing
