Labour aren't spineless—they're complicit. Outside of that very small window where Jezza was "in charge" (read: the donors fucked up, and fixed it shortly thereafter), Labour in our living memory has never been anything but Dollar Store Democrats with smart boy accents.
And always remember! Be bold! Be brave! Sorry, but as a large language model I am unable to assess ethical questions of that nature! And always follow your dreams!

Canadian Greens are the absolute most insufferable kind of libs. Their solutions for climate change are basically to replace fossil fuels with [Future Technology 18] like they're playing Civilization 2 with cheats turned on.
I don't know about everybody else, but I'm judging it based on the author being a Canadian turbolib who's still really scared of getting nuked by the USSR.
Nate is just coping about being so devastatingly wrong about his "96% chance of victory!" prediction.
Besides, it shouldn't have been that close to begin with. The 2016 election should have been a wham bam slam jam thank you ma'am landslide win for the Democrats, on the scale of Reagan v. Mondale. The fact that it wasn't should concern you about the party's competence and/or goals.
It seems he wasn't whistleblowing to expose the war crimes but because he felt troops were beyond overinvestigated!
He was concerned that a couple grunts were going to get scapegoated for what a ton of absolute monsters were doing. Like Ben Roberts-Smith—decorated war hero who walks free today—uh, I need to spoiler/content warning this gorefest, said:
CW: gore, murder, what the fuck
“I shot that removed in the head. [witness name redacted] told me not to kill anyone on the last job. So I pulled out my 9mm, shot the removed in the side of the head, blew his brains out. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”
Yeah, that guy gets to walk free and get rich off public speaking engagements. McBride, though! Exposing that evil is malfeasance and needs to be PUNISHED!
You dome some kids for fun, so you can jerk off to it later? Victoria's Cross material, national hero. Tell the public about it? CRIMINAL.
April 22 – The global struggle in solidarity with the Palestinians against the horrific U.S./Israeli genocide since October 7 has become a major focus on U.S. college campuses. Prestigious Columbia University, located in Harlem, New York, has become ground zero in the campaign to divest funds supporting the apartheid Israeli...
The students are also protesting their schools' complicity in the genocide. Many of the schools represented here serve as funnels to the military contractors who build the weapons the genocide relies on. And the schools are paid handsomely (via "grants") by those big weapons companies. It's sick from every angle.
The places that are primarily ethnic Russian? And voted overwhelmingly to secede from Ukraine in 2014? And then have been subject to an illegal bombing campaign by Ukraine from then until October 2022?
Never heard of any of this before but it seems like a dope community. I just donated through paypal to validate. I'm excited to try stuff out. I tried to look at the bboard and I am confused but I will learn. never used irc either but I'm curious. This all seems so cool
Honestly, I love driving so, so much, and I cannot fathom a road trip where we don't make a pit-stop at least every four hours. In fact, you kind of had to do that back in the 80's, because fuel economy was total shit back then. My little Mazda fuel sipper had a max range of a bit over 400 miles, and if we had to use my parents' van, it was closer to 250-300.
Are you referring to some pre-capitalism economic systems?
Yes. The person with the hammer and sickle handle, who moderates Leftypedia, thinks we should retvrn to a caste system. You nailed it. Your question is definitely in good faith.
Wow. I didn't know that. I just, uh, you're telling me now for the first time. I'm actually sad to hear that. I am sad to hear that. Thank you very much.
The answer to the question is, "None," because it's a stupid question.
It's like if somebody said they hate cars, and we can do without them. Then some stupid asshole said, "I see. Should we return to the horse and buggy? Perhaps the rickshaw? Chariots, perhaps? Maybe a world where kings are carried on a throne upon the shoulders of slaves? Or maybe just piggyback rides? Kindly ignore the existence of trains and bicycles. Thanks!"
I reject the premise of the question, because the question isn't asked in good faith, and is fucking stupid.
Yeah, but it's flying / electric, so it still takes full damage from both water and electric moves. And if the weather is sleet, it's basically game over.

Museums Victoria acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Boon Wurrung Bunurong peoples of the eastern Kulin Nations where we work, and First Peoples across Victoria and Australia. No, we aren't giving your land back. But we did want to remind you that we stole it. You're welcome.
Do you mean known pedophile Timothy Alan Livingston of Fort Lauderdale, FL? The one depicted in this photo of a passport? Is that the guy we're talking about here?
Hey, wait a sec. That's the same percentage of the entire Gazan population that are children. Israel would have to be just indiscriminately killing everybody if that were true!
Everyone's allowed a couple problematic faves. My favorite turn-brain-off movie is still Anchorman, even though they drop their first R-word about 90 seconds into the film.
Yeah, that tends to happen when you get you provoke a war then get your shit stomped. All this could have been avoided if the West kept their dick out of the former Eastern Bloc over the last couple decades, but they didn't, and this is where we ended up. We fucked up their country, and they get to pay the consequences for our actions.
The "I'm not hitting you! I'm not hitting you! Look! I'm not hitting you, nyah nyah!... mmMMMMOOOOOMMMMMMMM HE HIT ME! HE STARTED IT!" defense doesn't work if you're a fucking country.
