And yes, yes it is. Lots of prostitutes and Johns in this world, though.
Trying my hardest to be civil in this uncivilised world.

Westerners feel that way when the propaganda/ideology is threatened. They also often have issues not thinking in all or nothing terms, so they need these dichotomies.
Seeing from the heavily upvoted comments removed by the mods, this ain’t changing anytime soon, lol.
Oh yeah the man was a prophet of peace, I’m not putting it on him. 👍


Does left and right just mean prosocial Vs antisocial? What do these directions used as political labels even mean? Are they useful labels?
Completely eyeballed it but I included every Western imperialist project that was done with Bible in hand and chanting variations of “Deus Vult”, so that’s large chunks of Asia, most of Africa, all of Latin America, and every Western incursion on West Asia from the Crusades to Iran today. And let’s not forget the pagan persecution in the West itself by the Romans. That’s a shit ton of people through the ages, right?
Jesus, by far. The people who have been murdered in his name is probably close to or over a good billion, right?
He’s not really a “foundational figure of Christianity” though, his image was just co-opted by the Roman empire which then created the religion also co-opting the actual “Jewish revival” Jesus was at the core of (bringing the fundamentals of monotheism back into mind and expanding the teachings to everyone, not just a small select community).


“So let’s bomb them to the stone ages, that’s the right thing to do!”
The only reason this kind of stuff is posted by Western media, ofc.


Genocide enabler, lol.
“Proscribed group due to it using violence.” But nvm Israel and whoever supports them, right?
My guy, the UK created Israel as a settler colonial project and innocents have been murdered and oppressed for decades, and your take is “they should be stopped, they’re going into companies (that directly support the Zionist project)!”. Just say you don’t care about non-Whites and that the status quo should be maintained regardless of the lives lost to it, at least you’d be honest.
Having a Western-aligned (America and vassal states) leader in close proximity to a nation who has not submitted yet is certainly part of the plan, always, but could the admin truly be incompetent enough to fuck it up for themselves? Or is Orban just being replaced by a different puppet and we’re spectating the theatrics of democracy, no more, no less? I think seeing things as “removing Orban is good for Europe” (and whatever other alternative is “bad for Europe”) is a bit oversimplified.
It’s literally that simple, but many Westerners who choose to be one of/on the side of the world’s villains don’t seem to grasp it and I don’t know why.


Too religious/“old-fashioned” for some .ml communities, too autistically principled and anti-Western for Reddit and similar e-spaces. 😭
I feel pretty comfy on Lemmy all in all though, I can’t lie.
Everything is military/war oriented. Remember the “war on drugs”? They can’t comprehend the world except from a perspective of opposition and control. 🤷🥲
TIL, but I think I’m too old to put into practice, haha.


Yeah, that’s why, I’m a Muslim man!


I can’t just say that ironically or mockingly, haven’t you read my username? 😅
I won’t, it’s a waste of both of our times and I’m not that much of a maniac, lol. But we hardly live in Hell (unless you’re in Gaza or Lebanon, idk, in that case I understand your perception of things). Again, I have defined liberal very narrowly: Western imperialists who deny it (to themselves and others), and with better PR and “softer approaches” that aren’t as obviously morally disgusting. It’s not just a catch-all term for everyone who’s a danger to the global community.
But assuming I’m wrong, could you provide me with at least two examples of self-proclaimed “liberals” who are representative of the ideology today and tell me which things they did that you approve of and did not support the status quo of Western global oppression ?


“These GODLESS, EVIL people in the Iranian REGIME couldn’t accept my simple requests and don’t want to work for peace, even though I tried very hard, everybody’s saying that. So, even though I don’t want to, we might have to SEND THEIR COUNTRY TO THE STONE AGE. Blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne! Thank you for your attention to this matter. - The Big Don”
Did I do it right? 🙏
That’s not true, you can fit many labels which I disagree with ideologically and morally (so, yeah, “bad”), not just “liberal”. You could be/call yourself a “Zionist” or otherwise “Western imperialist”, or just imperialistic, or you could be a “nationalist”, a “Christian right-winger”, or a Republican/Democrat, or even a “realpolitik pragmatist”.
And out of curiosity, do you believe in Hell or is that just an expression? Liberals are known to stand for nothing, so it would shock me if you did.


I’m sure they’re financially motivated to make these “bad choices”, lol, and what is bad, really? Do you think these people know what values and ethical standards are? They just care about the bag, come on. But I agree, it sucks, and you know they’re only gonna get progressively heavy handed as things break down and the people become understandably angry. And I just moved to the UK too! Oh well… At least Bristol is still pretty safe, and seemingly for everyone ranging from hijabis to transfolk.
You’re uhh interesting, and that makes you memorable! But yeah, crazy story. 😅
