chad video
Oh my
Is that video going to call google left-leaning at all?
If so, I can't bring myself to watch it - I never understood that criticism and I never will
Muh right left dichotomy
Google is simply a company, beholden to nothing but profit
They loathe the far left, as they do the far right
They loathe any threats to power - they're simply capitalists at the core
@President SandersππΊπΈ @Light In Latin America, such crimes are so rampant with a corrupt justice system that shooting them would be better.
Google recently fired a handful of workers spreading awareness of labor rights, in fact - something which a "leftist" company certainly would never do, considering that worker rights, and more generally, those of what leftists view as the "downtrodden", are central to leftist ideologies
capitalists appeal to the worsed qualities of man, for them are the evil
Oh, sure - I'm not claiming to be a capitalist myself
I'm personally in favor of a mixed economy, still reliant upon a market system
agreed
Mind you, I'm also not in favor of fascism or a unitary state...
So I'm sure we disagree plenty too
@Light Is the economic system in the US the wrong mix though? We technically have a mixed economy.
Personally, I'd rather live with the negative excesses of capitalism rather than fascism
@Louis XIV (aka 1685Violin) Not necessarily, I think we are treading fairly heavily in neoliberal economics.
We're neoliberal largely
Pursuing privatization, granting corporations more power...
I mean, it's to be expected of a capitalist economy
@Light As for your preference. I would disagree, although that is my political adherence.
This is the natural end result
Unitary states are simply... bad
Presuming you don't live in the capital, presuming you're not already among the select elite...
Not to mention, presuming there's an "ethnic nationalism" component, things are even worse
You're just causing unjust, required suffering
Fascists generally selectively curate the worst aspects of tradition in my opinion, too
no true leftist would fire workers!!!
I mean maybe that last part is right idk
Fire? Sure. Fire for advocating for labor rights? Fire for organizing? No.
Some traditions are stupid
Leftism literally relies upon organization of the working class
no lol
Hey
Did you know
left is not just marxism lmao
theyre left libs
