On authority is used to justify the fact that many communist movements of the past turned into brutal dictatorships and that “it’s fine actually that mao starved half of China because you can’t have a revolution without being authoritarian”.

The actual paper is short and kind of stupid. What Engels was arguing in that short essay with a ridiculously outsized influence was that he was technically correct (the best kind) that anarchists are silly because any type of government someone could propose inevitably involves one person imposing their will on another like your quote says.

Really what Engels (who was a prominent communist thinker) was doing was fucking up any attempts at communist organization because now 1/3 of communists think that brutal authoritarianism is based and necessary for a revolution.

Who is it for?

I want an alternative history story about Trump being the president for 911

Ligma balls

A nice charm of Lemmy is that people will post this every couple of months until the site dies.

No shade to OP, it’s a nice little consistent thing we’ll have.

Cimmanim Roll!

Mostly (and this is probably true for over 60% of Republicans), it’s about defunding half of the government programs they rely on but don’t realize it, sold to them through the euphemism of “tax cuts”.

I think the right to control women is next on the list, but even then we see that even republican public opinion on abortions is stricter than the left’s, but would actually prefer less extreme laws than what has been passed.

As much of a meme as it is, most rural religious folk aren’t militant about marrying children and burning crosses. We hear about every instance of child marriage cause it sucks so much, and people have been openly, violently racist despite the law for centuries, all it takes is a town full of like-minded people.

And do you eat that spaghetti out of a bool?

One of the earliest uses of based is by 4chan users to describe things that were Nazi adjacent or fascist that celebrities and politicians would say and do. It was “based” because the idea is that they were doing the “right” thing even though it was unpopular often doing things like being ok with needless deaths because it also meant it pushed their fascist agenda. I think op is using it ironically in this case like those 4chan cretins use it.

Since then it’s been co-opted as the general Internet meme and that’s how most people know it now.

Idk. If we called a certain cancer “the Hitler disease” that would probably get across how dangerous it is.

Yeah premium makes 15 dollars per month. Ads for an average viewer makes dozens of cents per month.

Setting a lvl 1 trap to DC 20 makes me iffy about starting a campaign with you.

Yeah I’ve noticed there’s a divide in the population in which half the people “know what it’s like” to get drunk, and it really isn’t for them. And they’re baffled by people who love to get drunk. It’s a different experience. People don’t get drunk just “to act as silly as they want”, that should be obvious.

I think what you’re missing is that getting drunk is very fun.

I mean, if OP is going to the type of websites that have that significant of a risk of hacking him, he’s pretty deep into the depravity.

You could be unwilling to share what you have while also not desiring more of what you have. They are just two different concepts.

Monkey pays to live. He pays in the form of the daily labor of foraging, avoiding predators and finding shelter. It’s just not converted to the generalized form of money and then back to the basic needs of the monkey like we do it.

Labor is the basic unit of wealth. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

God it’s sad that inmates have to resort to arguing religious rights to fight for the right to look at the last eclipse they’ll likely see for the rest of their healthy lives.

This says “can you tell?” Like I don’t get a new screen once every 10 years maybe and even then the last one I got was used.
