Your entire argument is based on, once again, using a term wrong by definition
Thinking someone can have some control of their lives given the situation is a meritocracy
That's precisely what I'm trying to make you understand. Meritocracy is the belief of control and the fact that people should be more rewarded for being able to get a better control over their own lives rather than others, when in reality...
.. it simply does not work that way.
And you are - once again - showing me that you don't understand - once again - what I'm saying. And this is - once again - really disappointing.. Because I've tried everything with you guys.
Meritocracy isn't wrong
people should try to better themselves as long as its within their reach
however not everything is within reach for everyone

there were always those that hit rock bottom.
Society are not fataly bound to let some people down. Human are not evil by nature, that the myth capitalism is trying to sell you.
The problem is that under unregulated captialism, it's easy to hit rock bottom with no fault of your own.
Logiko is just once again being close minded and enforcing his views and assumptions on other people.
He keeps trying to remove any fault or accountability on the left.
Me with my anticapitalistic and antifascist fight and you and your anti-woke propaganda.. We are not fighting on the same plane anymore mate. You are still fighting scarescrows that I'm already trying to find my way around "the Destroyer".
I tried to be nice and understanding, so I ereased the message I wanted post in addition to my reply this morning but since you keep this attitude.. here we go:
And since I'm starting to get fed up of the way you act here let me add this:
I can say that you don't understand what you are talking about.. based on this sentence:
Dylan Mulvaney himself said he came out as gay(and centered his activities around his identity as a gay man), then non binary and then queer. Instead of reporting people for non existent transphobia, how bout listening to the people you are trying to be a white savior towards.
Words matter.
With your words, I can pinpoint your political compass. Not leftist because you would understand why not questionning merit is a problem and not far right or conservatist because you know too much about the political reality of the world to fall into this extrem.
So looking at the way you speak to me or treat the way try to prevent toxic behavior here. I'd place you on the Apolitical-liberal point of the political spectrum. The one that don't understand why saying that "he" about a transwomen is transphobe or why saying "people can improve themself and reach high if they want is purely liberal.
Since the day i've been talking here and reporting people, you act and talk like I'm the one who is trying to label people to try to get the moral high ground. But in reality I'm not the one doing that here ... YOU are.
Because YOU are the one who is trying to be edgy while understanding PERFECTLY the political/historical context and reasons why I'm talking the way I do. YOU (and other mods here) are the one denying cases transphobia when after reading people who are literally explaining that trans women are men you throw me a "buzzword", YOU are the one denying cases of clear toxicity, YOU are the one refusing to open the debate on the repolitization of already political subjects.
You are hidding being your power, your derogatory behavior, your casual ignoring but yet clearly targeted sarcasm to appear like you know everything about politics.. when in reality what you have is the surface level.
Your historical and economical knowledge are without a doubt BETTER than mine. But you miss the most important part :
The political knowledge. Or at least, that's what appears through your words.
- Denying transphobia
- Confusing identity and sexual preferences
- Not understanding why I use certain labels the way I do
- Refusing the politicization of discussions
- Targetting the only leftistS in the room with your words
- Not understanding the notion of meritocracy
Dude.. I'm not the one who has a problem of identity here.
America at the very least, has become more right wing and conservative over the past 15 years and its for a reason.
Not the left. We have our problems, but the rise of the far right or the right wing is not on us.
You have to be the smartest not hardest. Don't blame the game just because you don't understand. Unregulated capitalism is beautiful. Regulated capitalism is where "the system is made to keep you poor" is all about. When company joins governaments to regulate economy. That's when you are doomed to be poor. Not when everyone is free to do what they want.
You didn't read my post properly 🙄
except the countries where they are the majority and oppress&forcefully convert religious minorities
What point are you trying to make?
Where suppressing/oppression might have been justified?
Palestinian were stripped of their homes and land and ethically cleansed. There were massacred. In that context, suppression and oppression is the worst answer to the problem.
So if a group of cannibals decided to set up shop in a country, and threatened to eat your neighbors you don’t think that’s a good reason to oppress them and keep them away?
violence always requires a justification. We have to weight wether is good enough or not
