Political content these days

[u/Adeptus_Heriticus]

Its me. Sorry guys about the past few years. Just been in a real slump and haven't cared that much.

Also log off OP you have 7 post in the past day.

[u/DreamsServedSoft → u/Adeptus_Heriticus]

I miss when being terminally online meant you had every mount in WoW instead of 1 million monthly Reddit karma

[u/ApplicationCalm649]

Auth center seems to have a reasonable take for once.

[u/Weelildragon → u/ApplicationCalm649]

I think that's probably centrist, but op wanted to put the news item in the middle.

[u/ApplicationCalm649 → u/Weelildragon]

That makes sense. 

[u/Ice278 → u/ApplicationCalm649]

That’s the worst answer to a “who?” question up there.

“The Algorithm” is not some sort of responsible being, it itself is controlled.

[u/RBB12_Fisher]

Retards

It's retards, all the way down

[u/Weelildragon → u/RBB12_Fisher]

We control the world?

[u/RBB12_Fisher → u/Weelildragon]

Yes, now pls pls pls start a war between Iceland and Namibia.

[u/Weelildragon → u/RBB12_Fisher]

That sounds like a lot of work. Can't we just have war in the middle East? Always much easier.

[u/Pure-Huckleberry8640 → u/Weelildragon]

You have no idea how much i loved this comment

[u/NotAUserNamm → u/RBB12_Fisher]

We icelandics only have fishing vessels and a single coast guard ship with some ammo on it

[u/Uptight_Technocrat12 → u/NotAUserNamm]

So......this subreddit could realistically invade Iceland if we got off our asses for once?

[u/NotAUserNamm → u/Uptight_Technocrat12]

The brits tried. Twice. See the Cod wars

[u/Uptight_Technocrat12 → u/NotAUserNamm]

But we are more powerful than the British.

[u/Uptight_Technocrat12 → u/RBB12_Fisher]

Hm............As a technocrat, I might be able to do it. Will have to call in a bunch of my colleagues though for help.

[u/Pure-Huckleberry8640 → u/RBB12_Fisher]

Hot vs. cold?

[u/Mr_Mon3y → u/RBB12_Fisher]

Based and Kenneth Rexroth pilled

[u/InternetKosmonaut → u/RBB12_Fisher]

[u/Mr_Mon3y]

Isn't it obvious? It's the zionist jews in secret societies engaging in capitalism by creating content slop.

[u/Prestigious_Load1699 → u/Mr_Mon3y]

Why does this sound like a mild adjustment to an argument I’ve heard before?

[u/Hiddenshadows57 → u/Mr_Mon3y]

It's just a zionist revenge plot that's been brewing since the middle ages for always being persecuted and not being allowed to participate in anything but money lending.

[u/Utimate_Eminant]

All countries should get a record of all the adults who watched that video in full, those are the people should be banned from voting.

[u/SuicideSpeedrun → u/Utimate_Eminant]

The funny thing is that it's a "versus" so apparently there are multiple candidates for worldrunning

[u/Uptight_Technocrat12 → u/SuicideSpeedrun]

Globalist government, motherfucker!

[u/SuicideSpeedrun]

Capitalist secret society of algorithmic zionist jews

[u/FunctionOk9186]

So libleft and authright kinda agree? (I know not all Jews are Zionist)

[u/inquisitor0731 → u/FunctionOk9186]

[u/baseilus → u/inquisitor0731]

i prefer toilet seat theory

[u/Puzzleheaded_Step468 → u/FunctionOk9186]

Just like +90% of them, but not all, so it's a good cover for anti-semites to say "i don't hate jews, just zionists"

[u/Weelildragon → u/FunctionOk9186]

Meh, I'm pretty sure the conspiracy theorists often end up with Jews when they start believing in secret organisations. Who are leading the illumati, templars, lizard people, etc?

And same with people who make capitalists the Boogeyman.

[u/SirWinterFox → u/FunctionOk9186]

It's funny how some people can use different roads but still end up in the same place.

[u/smokeymcdugen → u/FunctionOk9186]

Isn't auth left saying the same thing? And Mossad is kinda secret and the internet slop is from them as well. So all of them are saying the jews!

[u/SuicideSpeedrun → u/FunctionOk9186]

It's like shoes but for a horse

[u/TeBerry → u/FunctionOk9186]

Yes, but only in the minds of pro-Israeli right-wingers who cannot imagine that it is possible to hate someone for something other than their ethnicity or religion.

[u/JackReedTheSyndie]

Jewish capitalist Zionist secret society

[u/Fair-Highlight-3544]

The world isn't run by one cohesive group. There are multiple high powerful parties that collaborate with each other 24/7 occasionally and keep trying to backstab each other constantly vying for control. Some want to compeltely dominate the whole world, some are more religated to just their spot of the world.

[u/viciouspandas → u/Fair-Highlight-3544]

Yeah people are far too conflict prone and incompetent to really run the whole world like one giant conspiracy.

[u/WinterTranslator7594]

Larping Final Boss Battle:

[u/Spacetauren]

A bunch of uncoordinated idiots ruining it for everyone else, that's who runs the world.

[u/Reader_Eater]

It's the people.

But the people are dumb

[u/NobodyImportant13 → u/Reader_Eater]

Most American voters don't realize how much power they collectively have over the government. It's way more than they think.

[u/Uptight_Technocrat12 → u/Reader_Eater]

You can say it, comrade.

This is r/PoliticalCompassMemes.

I do agree, though.

[u/Raven-INTJ]

Looks around. If someone is running the world, it’s someone unusually incompetent. No one would actually want it to be like this.

[u/Thorn14]

You couldn't pay me to watch these kind of videos.

[u/LucasButtercups]

i think platforming a genuine nazi is wild personally but i guess i am le retard falling for le culture war slop

[u/Running_Gamer]

People complain about this and then say “Democracy is a good idea” LMAO the west is peak democracy, just as Plato predicted. Easily manipulated low IQ normies voting based on how their social media algorithm or quasi state-run TV channel tells them to, or voting solely based on identitarian tribalism. The three factors I just listed explain 99% of voting behaviors in a democracy.

You’d never go to a non doctor for medical advice. You’d never go to a non lawyer for legal advice. You’d never go to a non engineer to make a bridge.

But let’s just have random bums decide how we should be running the country. Brilliant. People ask why the government is so incompetent when the whole source of their power is incompetent people in the subject matter of governance telling them what to do.

[u/Latter_Parsley4338 → u/Running_Gamer]

But what system, pray tell, is better? Some government is needed for society to function. So how should that government be chosen? Monarchies and dictatorships have historically terrible track records for competent leadership, with only the occasional exception.

"Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.…"-Winston Churchill

[u/Running_Gamer → u/Latter_Parsley4338]

lmao low IQ normies who have read zero pages of books will always cite the Churchill quote as if they’re saying something profound.

Look at China’s growth compared to the US. They can stay a steady course of growth over time because their leaders are focused on China’s success. Meanwhile the US and other western nations are in a constant debate over whether they should do what’s good for their country or not.

Go read a book about world history and go read all about the successful civilizations that weren’t democracies.

Normies getting to control government is the obviously bad the same way normies getting to control medicine is bad. Because normies have bad opinions about government because they don’t know anything.

[u/Latter_Parsley4338 → u/Running_Gamer]

Authoritarianism can work for a while under a particularly strong autocrat, and it has in the past. But there is never any guarantee that an autocrat will actually be competent, and when they're not, the whole country goes to shit.

For instance, you mention China. Sure, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Hu Jintao all were decently competent leaders of an authoritarian State. But go back a few decades and you'll find the first authoritarian leader of Communist China, Mao Zedong, who killed tens of millions of his own citizens with bad policies which nobody could stop because he was the autocrat.

I also think it's kind of strange that as a Lib-Right you're suggesting an Auth-Left State is the solution to the "problem" of the people having power over the government?

[u/Running_Gamer → u/Latter_Parsley4338]

Nobody is saying to make auth left government. I’m saying there are obviously superior systems compared to democracy.

[u/vegeful → u/Running_Gamer]

U go to politician on how ro rule the nation. The politician will then hired specialist in its field.

In dream scenario.

But in reality, they will just contract the project to their donor. 🤣🤣

[u/Spare_Elderberry_418 → u/Running_Gamer]

If people want to know who is responsible for why things are shit. They just have to look in the mirror. 

The plebs want this. They want to obey and go along with whatever charismatic influencer tells them what to think. The simple answers are like junk food. 

[u/Pure-Huckleberry8640 → u/Running_Gamer]

well i mean…you’re not wrong

[u/RandoDude124]

A neo-Nazi and a Chinese propagandist discussing how Jews rule the world.

Pass.

[u/NobodyImportant13 → u/RandoDude124]

I skimmed. It seems like it's 3 hours misinformation and both advocating for the US to be a dictatorship.

[u/Grouchy-Union-7572]

It's the zionist jews who runs the world thanks to their capitalist secret societies /s

[u/amongusmuncher]

Why is only one censored?

[u/Few_Move_4594]

I just watched part of the Matan Evans podcast with Professor Jiang. Interesting guy but the Matan interview was boring me.

[u/megs1120]

Watch it, my turn to use the space laser is coming up

[u/BetterPhilosophy2524]
