China colonising Europe bit by bit. Both the US and China are intent on world domination. The difference is that China is smarter about it.

Yes. US and Chinese.

Only one possibility. The police are pro-genocide.

The more billionaires take at the expense of the many, the more you will see forced labour being used. Xinyang now. Soon, Aligator Auswitch.

So the UK is directly engaging in genocide rather than only indirectly?

Corporations and fascists. Name a more iconic duo.

Thank goodness I left this sithole country.

So it just seems like they’re further right because every successive Tory government is further right than the previous one and Labouare just Tories?

Is it just me or is this Labour government more far right than the previous Tory one?

We should not be signing trade deals with countries that sell out Ukraine, we should instead massively tax their tech companies and try to pop their AI bubble.

Sorry. I got tunnel visioned by the fascist vs libéral vs leftist trichotomy for a while.

It’s because they’re liberals. Liberal politicians always surrender to fascists, no matter what they say. It’s necessary in order to keep capitalism going.

I support Yvette Cooper.

They don’t. There are still regulations, particularly in Europe, that restrict what corporations can do. Many countries have strong unions and labour rights such as France, Belgium and Scandinavian countries. Activists document what the powerful do and organise protests against them. Contrast that with actual totalitarian regimes such as China and what the US is turning into.

Because corporate-backed governments want to control their citizens.

That’s why alternative decentralised social media is so important. It means that we can continue to discuss things that governments do not want us to discuss (today Gaza tomorrow other corporate malfaisance) without regards de the “laws” they come up with to silence free speech.

Ah, so you’re not advocating for a crackdown in opposition in the case of a hypothetical war with Russia, you are instead insinuating that there is a plan to do that. Do you have any evidence?

Huh?

What’s the point in defending against Russia if we’re going to be just like Russia?

That makes you no better than Russia, using conflict in order to take away people’s rights and instituting a totalitarian surveillance state.
