  1. Its amusing you think anything Marx related is referring to just you.
  2. I actually agree with you understanding of the times in a historical context. I wasn't agreeing with racial or bigoted views I was simply pointing out the hypocrisy that comes from one side. No one of here can know if growing up and living in those times what our thoughts on those subjects would have been. Same reason so many today "forgive" or "overlook" FDR's treatment of Japanese American's after Pearl. You really have to live in those times to completely understand the behavior. Its also why I comment on how long must we go back before certain behaviors are found to be acceptable. This is not excusing those behaviors just accepting that during that time period things were different.
  3. More Joe Biden from Highmark.
  4. Good God man is NY the only state releasing prisoners? https://wwmt.com/news/i-team/michigan-prison-population-sees-record-drop-during-covid-19-pandemic
  5. Past racism is completely acceptable when it aligns with your political and or economic philosophy. From “A Plan for Peace” (1932): [The government should] “give certain dysgenic groups in our population their choice of segregation or sterilization.” Margaret Sanger And finally, the essence of Margaret Sanger. From “The Eugenic Value of Birth Control Propaganda” (1921): “Today eugenics is suggested by the most diverse minds as the most adequate and thorough avenue in the solution of racial, political and social problems.” Margaret Sanger
  6. No I don't buy into all the Satan worship conspiracy's and what not but no matter what this whole gathering is about and what goes on is fucking weird. I'm not even talking about the stuff Alex Jones supposedly exposed. I'm talking about the stuff that's pretty much out in the open. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohemian_Grove
  7. Ahhhh....so a "nuanced understanding of historical context" should only be afforded to those who share your sides political and economic philosophy. Exactly what is going on in America today. I knew this would be your response but thanks for the confirmation.
  8. Completely agree. The idea that the AN alone being this explosive does raise some questions. There was a pretty significant fire going on and maybe that alone has enough to set it off.
  9. Now one of the biggest "social justice movements" in US history whose "leaders" praise Marxist policies is led by an AA's, a Hispanic American and a Somalian immigrant. These same social justice warriors want to tear down any reference of history as it relates to bigotry or racism. Honestly you couldn't make this shit up if you tried. https://www.dailysignal.com/2017/05/10/ugly-racism-karl-marx/ May Day celebrations were held all across the fruited plain, with leftist radicals and unionists worshipping the ideals of communism. Communism is an ideology calling for government control over our lives. It was created by Karl Marx, who—along with his collaborator, Friedrich Engels—wrote a pamphlet called “Manifesto of the Communist Party.” In 1867, Marx wrote the first volume of “Das Kapital.” The second and third volumes were published posthumously, edited by Engels. How are socialists deluding a whole generation? Learn more now >> Few people who call themselves Marxists have ever even bothered to read “Das Kapital.” If one did read it, he would see that people who call themselves Marxists have little in common with Marx. For those who see Marx as their hero, there are a few historical tidbits they might find interesting. Nathaniel Weyl, himself a former communist, dug them up for his 1979 book, “Karl Marx: Racist.” For example, Marx didn’t think much of Mexicans. When the United States annexed California after the Mexican War, Marx sarcastically asked, “Is it a misfortune that magnificent California was seized from the lazy Mexicans who did not know what to do with it?” Engels shared Marx’s contempt for Mexicans, explaining: “In America we have witnessed the conquest of Mexico and have rejoiced at it. It is to the interest of its own development that Mexico will be placed under the tutelage of the United States.” Marx had a racial vision that might be interesting to his modern-day black supporters. In a letter to Engels, in reference to his socialist political competitor Ferdinand Lassalle, Marx wrote: Engels shared Marx’s racial philosophy. In 1887, Paul Lafargue, who was Marx’s son-in-law, was a candidate for a council seat in a Paris district that contained a zoo. Engels claimed that Lafargue had “one-eighth or one-twelfth n—– blood.” In a letter to Lafargue’s wife, Engels wrote, “Being in his quality as a n—–, a degree nearer to the rest of the animal kingdom than the rest of us, he is undoubtedly the most appropriate representative of that district.” Marx was also an anti-Semite, as seen in his essay titled “On the Jewish Question,” which was published in 1844. Marx asked: Despite the fact that in the 20th century alone communism was responsible for more than 100 million murders, much of the support for communism and socialism is among intellectuals. The reason they do not condemn the barbarism of communism is understandable. Richard Pipes explains: That means leftists around the world will continue to celebrate the ideas of communism.
  10. So much for hating old racists.
  11. If we or the Israels' did this the Muslim world wouldn't shut up about it. Every body of every woman and child would be all over Al Jazeera and CNN. I wouldn't call this an accident. I'd call it stupidity.
  12. Link? The explosion was on the little peninsula not the ship so it must have mostly been unloaded.
  13. The fireworks or the ammonium nitrate? Either way it was retarded having them that close to one another.
  14. Well one thing for sure it was pure stupidity. Who in their right mind puts that much ammonium nitrate within a mile of a fireworks factory or storage facility. There are a number of video's you can see and hear the fireworks going off before the large blast.
  15. I get that there are some studies that suggest its not effective. I also get there are a large number of studies from very respected doctors and medical facilities that suggest it is. There are also many doctors risking their careers to publicly defend its effectiveness. Given its long history of safe use when administered properly I simply see zero issue with using it. Hell if you want to go to somewhere where Malaria is common they give it to you just in case. Some countries sell it OTC. I have zero doubts anyone here without significant heart issues would hesitate asking for it if ill with Covid.
  16. Creates votes against democraps. Its awesome.
  17. Yeah the one you wish you had you would have nothing....including the family farm.
  18. Moto Mr......I use capitalism to create wealth for me to support the cause of Marxism which wouldn't allow me to create my own wealth to support Marxism.
  19. I know this, dozens and dozens more doctors are going to the media (regular and social) risking their careers discussing its effectiveness against Covid 19 than are coming out and vocally speaking on its ineffectiveness. That says something.
  20. Brilliant coming from a admitted communist.
