It’s strange to hear because most of us don’t seek it out. Like yeah we ARE cogs in the machine and we ARE resources , how is that a bad thing ? I actually think from an efficiency perspective it’s beautiful.
Putting the right resources in the right locations and times maximizes productivity which benefits all of us.
This the communists would never understand and why whenever they run anything, goods becomes scarce.
Interesting how, according to you and nearly every other lib I’ve talked to, the Democrats are simultaneously the only hope against Republican rule but also powerless to stop Republicans whenever they’re in power. Meanwhile Republicans advance their genocidal policies regardless of which party is in charge, but they’re also so weak that the only thing necessary to stop them in their tracks forever is to vote in a Democrat at the next election.
The observant among us would see that these are contradictory statements. By analyzing those contradictions and finding which one aligns with reality, you could come to a more coherent viewpoint.
Every person involved in making this decision deserves to be buried in an unmarked grave with the weapons they love so much. How many innocent people completely uninvolved with the war are going to grow up suffering the effects of depleted uranium rounds? Another absolutely monstrous decision in a long line of monstrous decisions by the US government.
On a related note: If you’re a lib looking to educate yourself on what exactly communism is read Principles of Communism, also by Engels. It’s literally an FAQ describing the very basics, and a much better starting point than the manifesto which is what most people tend to start off with.
Are you aware of what depleted uranium does to the human body? Innocent people are going to be dealing with the consequences of a decision made by a handful of people across the planet for decades after the war ends. Does poisoning generations of people sound like “defending” Ukrainians to you?
Who said it was? It’s still an environmental contaminant, a carcinogen, and linked to a rise in birth defects after its use in Iraq
It’s use will have consequences far outside of the conflict and ruin the lives of who knows how many people who had absolutely no say in this war and I’m supposed to cheer it on?
