Most people who join the military are not poor. Some are financially desperate for sure, but most aren’t. They are usually from the middle class and/or from a military family.

Edit: here’s another effective method of recruitment. This is the new COD. I wonder what kind of people they are targeting?

“The only democracy in the middle east” dedicated to the genocide of Palestinians.

Ben Norton wrote an article about the 82% stat if anyone is interested to know more. Very disturbing stuff.

I think the person you’re replying to is a crypto fascist.

One of their comment:

The US government really isn’t the problem. It’s US companies and the dipshit morons that keep giving them money.

It’s not the word salad it appears to be. They seem to wish for a change in who is capitalist, but without changing how the government function.

Another victim of Historical Materialism 😔

Eh. I know Ukraine and its nazis have a positive relationship with Canada. Are the nazi Ukrainians racist against white Canadians? According to you, they are. I would argue otherwise.

Nazis believed Slavs were subhumans. But it seems these people are trying to be part of the West and its “whiteness.”

The nazi Ukrainians also are pushing a narrative that it is the Russians that are subhumans. Which is not too dissimilar from the liberal narrative.

Hasan Piker is a dork who now injects himself with steroids and sometimes goes to the gym. His sycophants are likewise geeky little shits. The background of the video says more about him and his shit views than anything else in the video.

His decisions are all profit driven.

When were any of Canada’s leaders or their political parties not motivated by profit? This greed isn’t new.

Edit: Carney represents capitalists. His decisions reflect that. Why would a liberal politician act otherwise? Better question… why does lemmygrad suddenly believe in great man theory?

If Carney acts in the interests of the international bourgeoisie because he’s a banker, then I guess we could solve all the problems in Canada by voting for a high IQ doctor.

Gotta love the goofs around here who now spread the BS “if we could only have a courageous liberal leader 🥺”

You are disregarding theoretical work done more recently, such as the writings of Losurdo.

You claimed fascism was a method. As if fabricated in a lab of Elon Musk, only to then consciously unleash racist ideology on the population. Americans and the West, are racist, not simply because of a racism made in a lab with the intentions of brainwashing citizens, but rather because of a complex historical process that grew alongside capitalism.

Imperialism abroad is analogous to fascism at home. When imperialism is no longer functioning properly as a process of extracting super profits, fascism at home intensifies. When the ruling class applies a victimization habitually reserved for people of colonial origins to white people, that’s what most refer to as fascism. However, the fascism affecting whites was always in the USA against ethnic minorities.

Settler colonialism birthed imperialism and fascism, which are essentially twins in a dialectical relationship.

They also referenced the Buffalo shooting you talked about last week https://lemmygrad.ml/post/11607122

The document was shared on a web forum that is notorious for circulating hateful content. It contains images of Nazi and neo-Nazi symbols — including the one the shooters wore — and describes how the young men were inspired by a man who killed 51 people at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, in 2019. They also cited as inspiration a shooter who carried out a racist massacre at a supermarket in Buffalo, N.Y., in 2022. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/19/us/san-diego-mosque-cain-clark-caleb-vazquez.html

They were incels but I wonder if a better class analysis can be made. Anyways, it kinda sounds like they might have been part of online nazi cults, such as orders of the 9 angles.

Well, obviously, the bourgeoisie’s schools are not going to teach children that fascism is inherent to capitalism. It is to be expected that the capitalists will not provide the youth with a thorough understanding of political economics.

There is absolutely no analysis that fascism is a method to re-entrench the power of capital while distracting the masses away from fighting the capitalists to killing minorities instead.

When settler colonists enslaved black people and killed the indigenous populations of America, they were simply “distracting the masses?” Is fascism a method or a historical process that developed alongside capitalism?

Are the zionists liberals in the occupation of Palestinian lands simply “distracting the masses” from fighting the capitalists in the regime? I would think the so-called masses are benefiting from the killings of Palestinians and expropriation of their lands.

This is why US liberals have very wishy-washy definitions of fascism, because they focus only on the symptoms and not the root causes that define fascism.

The root cause of fascism is the exploitation of labor and expropriation of land. Both have been justified and aggravated by racism, then and now.

Reminds me of this crap

If wealth is an indication of being autistic “without intellectual disability,” then what is autism if not an extension of the aristocracy of race? Are we supposed to believe neurodivergents are super humans and that nerds are not only a race but an oppressed race?

This person doesn’t look like a pirate. Looks more like a wizard with a scent that would make Fred Flintstone’s ass smell pleasant.

I appreciate their honesty. Personally, I believe transphobes should be shot. Whether or not they suffer before dying is irrelevant to me. These worms should not be allowed to exist. And if I want to exist in society in any meaningful way, they cannot.

Your comment made me think a little. The way I understand what a smug person is seems different from how many people would define it. A smug liberal, to me at least, is considered as such partially because they are actually smart. But they mainly smug because they look down on others, viewing them as being uncultured and stupid. Liberals have that in common with fascists. The guy in the post, Pugjesus, is probably smart and educated. There is no pseudo intellectualism. And we who are from the working class are much more likely to appear as pseudo intellectuals because we lack the official bourgeois education that makes a person intelligent in capitalism. Instead, we are self-educated, all the while living the proletarian life. Then, we are much more likely to appear “pseudo” because we need to survive while educating ourselves through unconventional methods, which means we are prone to make mistakes simply because of the often ineffectual and unorganized nature of self education.

You admitted yourself you think i am cia, which means I was correct in assuming you were targeting me.
