    You're 100% right. Going half-way on these things gives them the "oppression" and "authoritarianism" they need to continue their persecution complex while doing nothing to actually limit and discourage hate and ideology like their's on the internet.




  • Socialism isn't just handing people free money like the government does for the rich. It makes it seem like all we need to do is just print off imaginary money for workers and the economy will be saved rather than transform the entire formation of the mode of production. The phrase also obscures class dynamics. It'd be more illuminating to say that the government/state is the arm of the dominant capitalist class rather than this "socialism for the rich" sloganeering.



  • Yeah, I really didn't get how people took it so seriously and didn't get the jokes. I know it avoided the obvious setup-punchline jokes and the involvement of people like Jaden Smith voice acting in it made it seem like it might be seriously pretentious, but the entire structure of the show and the recurring jokes really make it obvious that it's an intentionally "bad" comedy.
