just heard about diego maradona's passing. the greatest to ever play the game, and a socialist who used his platform to support anti-imperialist liberation movements across the globe. here he is visiting cuba after his good friend castro passed away. RIP
we're losing too many of the good ones
ha I just noticed in the pic with chavez he has a t-shirt on with bush's face saying "war criminal". god what a tremendous loss

recently politico removed a piece by a prominent french sociologist bc he called out macron's rabid islamophobia. now the same professional media class hacks who cheered the decision to censor that are crying for jordan peterson and going all "OMG WESTERN CIVILIZATION IS ENDING"
the fact that Farhad Khosrokhavar, the author of that censored piece, was not turned into a brave Saint and Martyr for free speech by the professional media class, but someone like jordan peterson is (even though he's not actually censored), tells you all you need to know
this is just the most recent example of professional media class hacks either cheering on or entirely ignoring actual instances of flagrant censorship. but this happens constantly. see this thread where I discuss why, and detail another case of this:

jordan peterson is trending because he is apparently writing another "12 rule for life" which I think warrants a trip down memory lane. THREAD WITH CLIPS revealing him to be a grifter of the highest order, beginning with that time he got destroyed within the span of a few seconds
here's that time jordan peterson claimed that without god it is impossible to produce art, and when challenged on this absurdity when it's pointed out there are atheist artists, peterson claims they're actually religious without knowing it. the audience literally laughs at him
Jordan Peterson actually believes the DNA double helix, discovered in 1953, is depicted in ancient Chinese, Aboriginal and Egyptian art

if liberals in the professional media and political class had not sabotaged him bc they prefer fascists over mild social democracy, this man would have been PM right now. and tens of thousands who are now dead, disproportionately from minority communities, would have been alive
fishhook theory is Science

a libertarian just said some asinine shit in my mentions so here's a reminder that they're a fucking joke. don't let them rebrand as edgy cool anti-authoritarians in the post-trump era when far right conservatives start funneling cash to them again

"we can't stop someone from literally jerking off on our conference stage because that would violate the non-aggression principle" fuck off you weird nerds. here's chomsky explaining what libertarianism is really about: total corporate tyranny

there chomsky mentions that adam smith is often misrepresented by neoliberals and liberatarian bros, which elon musk is the perfect embodiment of as detailed in this thread

what is it about jake tapper that makes him a rabid racist scumbag against a palestinian muslim congressmember for daring to speak out against the genocidal israeli apartheid state?
as for blinken, as detailed in the thread below he is a die-hard supporter of the genocidal israeli apartheid state, and before having even assumed his position he and the biden admin he will serve have already flagrantly violated international law

tapper deleted the tweet but here it is for posterity. he has a long track record of this racist trash and you can expect a lot more of it in the future. it's pathological with him
