  • He looks like he could have come from the front or is prepared for physical activity

    But he don’t, he’s travelling from one luxury hotel to another in entire world to beg for money that are going to his pal’s golden toilets and whatnot.

    Sure it might be a bit of an act if you’re not in a warzone right now, but at least to me that puts the picture of him / his country being at war in my mind

    It’s an absolute act, if anything it clowns tragedy of people dragged from streets to the front. Also why not uniform then? He’s the commander of all AFU.

    The fact we are talking about it proves the signal is effective.

    Kinda but again it’s an act, it would be also talked about it if he wore a clown costume or gimpsuit.







  • In this case it might actually matter because it straight up defend billionaires property here. Remember how in “Democracy for the Few” Parenti agrumented that US system do appear to be completely paralysed in case of proposals working for the people, but works like well oiled machine when it comes for the ruling class interest.


  • Agree, but my point was that Bernie do know it’s unrealistic and illegal, so he must expect it either be shot down outright in which case it’s just a theatre or be negotiated to be legal (“just compensation”) in which case it’s a bailout for tech giants in the height of bubble.

    I don’t know which is correct, but in either case Bernie comes out of it as unprincipled in best case and bootlicker in the worst.



  • Edit: If the downvoters want to tell me where I’m wrong, I’d be glad to be corrected.

    Fifth amendment to the constitution states: “nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation” meaning this proposition is straight up unconstitutional unless they amend it to pay. And i assume Bernie do know constitution of his own country so i have no clue how he proposed it like this unless it is to stir a shitstorm about “seizing” and then amend it as “compromise”.
