  Let’s assume that people massively want to cheat (unfortunately, they don’t, and a lot of people die because of this); let’s say 9 people on 10 are cheating. Are you okay to discriminate one handy because you don’t want to be scam ?

  You just making him/her pay because of your ego. To rephrase it : one many disabled people are you okay to discriminated because you don’t want to be scammed ?

  Okay let’s levelup; if someone is cheating, maybe this one has a better idea of the reason he has to do it than you are.

  … or to take the wealth of the bourgeoisie, or even better expropriating it and get the wealth of our industries, or welcome more refugees. Fuck natalism and nationalism

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's funny how once a country has Universal Healthcare they never give it up.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Universal Healthcare are threaten everywhere, not because their are not balanced. Lobby from Insurance company made politics diminish income from healthcare and legalize private solution.

  For example in France, the healthcare system covered almost everything and was balanced fo decade (1946 - 2000), thanks to a socialization of income. At first the system was own only by Trade Unions, but now half of it’s leaders come from the bosses association.

  In Europe, we have to fight against the US models for decades, and we have lost some of our health coverage because of the privatization. As an example among many death and suffering, this year is a record of death-born in France.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Fediverse genre of Guy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Everybody stick on the legal definition of genocide, and as a strategy it does make sens. However, their is a political struggle, and not as we may expect. “Genocide” word was first defined by a Jewish jurist during WWII, as such :

  “Generally speaking, genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actions aiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves. The objectives of such a plan would be disintegration of the political and social institutions, of culture, language, national feelings, religion, and the economic existence of national groups, and the destruction of the personal security, liberty, health, dignity, and even the lives of the individuals belonging to such groups.”

  His works did inspire the UN definition with a more restrictive definition we know today. Raphael Lemkin made a definition that try to prevent inequality, colonialism and oppression that may lead to mass murder. But in preventing hierarchy between people, he made a definition that would make the concept of nationality illegal : every national-state has been made through genocide, according to Lemkin definition.

  Personally, I found that silencing this definition to made a new one that allow nationalism after WWII is antisemitic (and racist oc). But I want to underline that the fascist state of Israel is right to point out the hypocrisies of national-state; this propaganda will work until we will stand against our nations as well as against Israel.

  It’s important to note that man are not stigmatized, where women could often not find an other job after their porn carrier. Economic inequality is not just about wages

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  okay that seem to be coherent. We are used to define imperialism as “the system produce by the competition between states”. Some domination are note linked (or loosely) with market.

  I understand why it’s interesting to focus on things we can fight on. But a lot of us couldn’t fight the financial market and it’s exportation. However we could blockade exportation of weapons, sending medic kit or foods to people that suffer from domination.

  I’m not saying your definition is wrong, I’m saying that I found it ineffective for an international solidarity of the working class

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your opinion is important⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because a conclusion is incorrect do not imply that everything that lead to this conclusion is incorrect.

  First, your obviously struggle to convince people. So even if this is the only objective, we have to inform ourselves better to understand what we are missing. This is a better stand, but I think this is still an issue : we don’t really listen people if we think they are wrong.

  If our stand is right, this is not an issue to try to prove it wrong. So let’s discuss in order to be proven that vaccines shall not be trusted. I mean, with reliable sources and shit. However personal experiences are reliable sources, but not as much as collective one which and not as scientific consensus.

  And their is some serious concerns about vaccines : in Africa, some vaccines campaign was used to use people as test-subject, Falashas has been collectively sterilized. Those are not exception, coloniale and oppressive context regularly use health to justify oppression (on race, gender, sexual orientation or origin).

  So if we took what seems obvious to us in order to help, we may just reproduce what other people from the social origins use to oppress. In this conditions, the intuition to oppose to our speech is a good one. To do that, we have to value the knowledge of the exact same people that we may look down upon otherwise

  In this case, minorities could learn by themselves, to under another leadership.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your opinion is important⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you know some leading organization that are let concerned people speak, organized and plan their actions, without someone that want to “help them to understand their own conditions” ? I know some organizations dike that, and their are out of the limelight by others. And those others are liberal that think their have the right knowledge and their are need … or vanguard leftists that think they have the right political thinking to analyse the situation.

  In both case, they are acting like missionaries (and are their are some historical and sociological link).

  You take one example (that is true), but this is not enough. White people could act under the control of the collective; with an imperative mandate of what that person shall talk to, or what line shall that person defend, without asking his mind
