Woah! A new place for us to extract surplus value and do the socially necessary production. It's super cool because we can just let them die because they aren't white and they aren't even critical to the social reproduction of the imperial core!
It's like having slaves, but you don't have to give them enough to live off, they're far away, and the whole process is laundered through bourgeois freedom and liberty so you don't even have to feel bad about it!
"We need to encourage more immigration so I can get some delicious ethnic foods! We need more Mexicans for more taco trucks! We need more Greeks cus I love gyros! We need more Sheiks cus I heard they'll treat me like a god!" - This is how 99% of online liberals talk about immigration and it's really gross.

Interesting opinion there Noah, just putting something on a list, don’t mind me
It wasn’t liberated until 1962. Haven’t looked into what they’re dealing in terms of neocolonialism, however.
People like Noah grind me the hell down more than chuds. Every fucking tweet is just dripping with callous indifference to historical record, along with the added dosage of Western exceptionalism.
This slimy fuck is having it both ways with this shit. The ahistorical implication here is that Haiti isn't capable of self governance, and when someone points out how the West has ravaged Haiti, and continues to do so, it is met by this asshole denying historical reality. Then he shifts goalposts and says he didn't imply that Haiti can't self govern, despite everything pointing to the opposite.
That recent tweet he had about how he would he hunted down for posting, I really do hope it's open season
Edit- this fucker replied to someone saying that they're one of those blame everything on the CIA types
they’re one of those blame everything on the CIA types
:I-was-saying:
yeah, who would blame that shady organisation that is well known for destabilising countries. That would be crazy :fedposting:
hunted down for posting
Honestly this should be the fate of everyone on Twitter, myself included. We are, collectively, a scourge on the human race.
As someone that's never owned a twitter account, it will be with a heavy heart I tell you to face the wall.
he turned Prince_Kropotkin from a leftist into a neolib
Wait, like the PK from the old sub? Is that what happened to him?
Fuck.
:doomer:
Don't worry, PK was shitty even before his heel turn. Still remember him trying to convince me that home ownership as a financial instrument was a good thing
That’s not a good thing, it’s a fucking survival mechanism. You’re not bad if you manage to buy a house, but you’re bad if you think it’s a good thing we have to fucking buy houses.
Homeownership is only a good move in our system because everything is carefully constructed to make it that way. Ain't no way anyone who is making less than the top 10 percentile is getting a 30 fucking year 3 fucking percent mortgage outside of the hothouse that is the modern American suburbs and legal framework. I remember reading that prior to the new deal you would take a 10 year 5% mortgage from a bank as the ABSOLUTE BEST you would get and be happy about it.
Even back in the day when I was an anarchist I remember disliking them actually, along many people on the r/anarchism subreddit. They had this whole thing about respectability and optics, and even created that subreddit r/leftwithoutedge. It's doesn't surprise me they became a regular lib tbh.
Last I saw PK logged off for good a few months ago. I always liked him. He had shitty takes sometimes but he was consistent and would usually back up his arguments.
when you talk about countries like they're businesses.
I guess they are businesses under capitalism
Haiti was paying reparations to France for freeing themselves until the 1960s.
Does anybody know anything about Haiti when it was managed by the French? I bet it was pretty nice.
They're not wrong about poorly managed, just about who's really managing it.
Yeah its not like anyone who opposes western business interests gets couped or anything.
Also, the DR is experiencing a tourism boom. My grandparents' nowhere village has restaurants, trendy eco-hotels and other stuff going up.
