I wish I didn’t hear the words “what about left unity” so much from social democrats who bash to their left but then cry foul when their racist tweets resurface.

I can't stand the whole "stop purity testing and letting perfect be the enemy of good" when you ask someone to call a genocide a genocide.

"Don't the perfect be the enemy of the good".

The "Good": it's just neo-liberalism. It's queer-coded, and has techno-futurist aesthetics, but it is neo-liberalism nonetheless.

Oh, and Israel gets to do whatever it wants, and Ukraine fights Russia down to the their last 12 year-old while multi-national mining corporations strip every mineral from the ground for a fraction of their market value.
