So Leverage Redemption fucking rips and the reason that it's good and every other reboot sucks is that unlike most shows which are a reaction to like 2000's or early 2010's or whatever culture Leverage is about the post 2008 economy, and it's

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
obvious even to screenwriters that everything that was bad about the 2008 economy still exists but is worse, so you can still do basically the same show and it's great

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
The politics are still like........ Kind of confused lib shit but anti-rich lib populism is still a better and more fun than 99.9% of shows lmfao

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
I also really do like the angle of "everything that was bad before but was done under the table is legal now and they just like have advertisements for them" lmfao

A lot of people are calling this guy a tankie but that's not actually what's going on here, "tankieism" as an ideology doesn't actually exist in China. This is just pure right-wing Chinese nationalism. The two look similar in a lot of ways and

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
they're politically allied insofar as their politics are rooted in Chinese nationalism and the defense of the Chinese state, but Western tankies at least nominally believe in things like feminism and anti-racism in way the right wing nationists

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
don't pretend to. The whole "left wing but pro-CCP pro-Xi nationalist" thing is a pure product of the petite bourgeois diaspora's identity crises.

The CIA is wild because it was literally originally just like........ A bunch of rich dudes with overseas businesses

This was what American intelligence was until like the mid 50's. The US got its intelligence about China during the 20's from a cowboy named Fred Barton who sold horses to warlords

I think one of the things about American history in particular is we have this tendency to back project our experience of highly organized and highly disciplined bureaucratic institutions onto the historical forms of the same institutions and like

Greenwald going back to his "read the article" bit is extremely funny to me given he did this literally last week

The other amazing part of this is that the whole point of the well-documented Fed infiltration of groups like the Proud Boys was using them to get information on the leftist groups, not using inciting them to storm the capitol or some shit.

And like if you for some reason NEED to talk about the FBI entrapping people you could do the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot but Tucker doesn't give a shit about FBI entrapment in general he's just trying to mount some kind of convoluted defense

Too tired to really do anything beyond pointing out that social democrats and the pro-China "Marxist Leninists" are objectively pro-capitalist because the economic systems they propose and support maintain the existence of the bourgeoisie as a

The basis of the conspiracy theories about the Illuminati is that they're simultaneously so powerful that they stage all world events and simultaneously you can discover their plans by some symbols they leave laying around and anyways that's how

My #StopAsianHate take for the night is that I don't want "visibility" or "representation" I want fucking power, the power necessary to crush the racist system that rips us from our loved ones and stabs us in the street. If we want to live free

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
of fear, if we want to ensure that no Asian will ever again be buried by an American bullet, we have to tear the whole system apart brick by brick. ICE, the police, the prisons, the boarder, the settler state, the dictatorship of the capitalist

workplace and the capitalists deathgrip on production, all of it must be destroyed. And the only way to do that is with power. Real power, not the faux-power of political office, the ability to grind the gears of capitalism to a screeching halt,
