me: the us govt lied to you about Palestine

western liberal: yes, I know

me: they have also lied to you about Iraq, Syria, Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela, Afghanistan, Vietnam, and China

western liberal: yeah what’s your point

me: okay so keeping all that in mind, wouldn’t it be plausible that the US govt has lied to you also about the DPRK?

western liberal: NO YOURE A FASCIST NORTH KOREA IS A DICTATORSHIP FULL OF BRAINWASHED ZOMBIES. ITS THE TRUMAN SHOW FOR WESTERNERS!!!

it is at the very least horribly leader-worshipping. I feel like the punishment for stealing posters should be a fine, not “catching botulism”.

Shut the fuck up, yankee cunt 🫶🏻🥰

hmm.

well, at the very least a response. We can start from there.

although it is concerning that you know the state I live in.

I am fairly confident I can stab someone to death or at the very least incapacitation, and do not sleep at home, so it’s not quite as useful as you may think.

you talk like someone’s Jeff the killer related OC

Help a Family in Need

I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Mohamad S., who is facing one of the most challenging times of his life. Mohamad is 37 years old and left his homeland in 2015 in search of a safer and better future. He’s a kind, hardworking man, and his small family has always been his greatest priority.

Living abroad, Mohamad has recently endured unimaginable loss and financial strain. Amidst the ongoing conflict in his homeland, his mother passed away, leaving behind his sister and her five young children—the last remaining members of his immediate family.

As the situation worsened, Mohamad managed to help his sister and her children escape to safety in Egypt, covering their immediate needs and securing a temporary refuge for them. Since then, he has been fully responsible for providing everything they need to survive during this transition.

In his efforts to support his family and cope with this devastating loss, Mohamad has found himself deeply in debt. To make matters even more difficult, he recently underwent knee surgery, which limits his ability to return to work for the foreseeable future. This has made it even harder for him to manage his financial responsibilities and the pressing need to provide his family with a stable future.

Mohamad is now working to bring his sister and her five children to join him in Belgium, where he hopes they can find stability and opportunity after all they’ve endured. This transition, however, requires significant resources that he is currently unable to meet alone.

For privacy reasons, we are not sharing Mohamad’s full name, as he has chosen to keep his identity discreet. While he initially refused the idea of asking for help, I couldn’t stand by and watch him struggle alone. I insisted on doing this for him because he deserves a chance to overcome these challenges.

Your contribution will help Mohamad repay the debt incurred during this difficult time, cover ongoing living expenses for his family, and assist with the costs involved in bringing them safely to Belgium.

Mohamad has been a good friend of mine for years, and I’ve always admired his resilience and generosity. Any support, no matter the size, will make an incredible difference in helping Mohamad and his family rebuild their lives after these painful experiences.

Thank you for reading his story and considering helping a man who has always done everything he can for his loved ones.

Anonymous asked:

how do you feel about a heavy portion of communists being ableist? sending disabled people to prison for being physically unable to work and then acting like that didn't happen doesn't make disabled people confident that communism won't hurt them just as bad as capitalism (I'm not saying billions of trillions dies from communism I'm just saying ''those who won't work won't eat'' is fucking evil especially when I see that rhetoric in modern day! You can say 'oh a wheelchair user can do teaching or archiving' but that ignores how many disabled people are bedbound or fully paralyzed!)

ARTICLE 12. In the U.S.S.R. work is a duty and a matter of honour for every able-bodied citizen, in accordance with the principle: "He who does not work, neither shall he eat."
The principle applied in the U.S.S.R. is that of socialism : "From each according to his ability, to each according to his work."
[...]
ARTICLE 120. Citizens of the U.S.S.R. have the right to maintenance in old age and also in the case of sickness or loss of capacity to work.
This right is ensured by the extensive development of social insurance of workers and employees at state expense, free medical service for the working people and the provision of a wide network of health resorts for the use of the working people.

This is the USSR's 1936 consistution, emphasis mine. Not a perfect constitution by any means, but this is very clearly antithetical to what you believe happened. Disabled people in my own country today have less rights and even less guarantees of those rights being respected. Again, the USSR was not perfect and I'm not saying it was. But you're ascribing willful malice that is embedded in marxism to circumstances that were not easily circumvented. The USSR was an imperfect state lacking in sufficient social protections, which came from times of feudalism without any kind of protection in any aspects save for the nobility, and whose collapse led to unparalleled misery and war. "He who does not work shall not eat" never included disabled people. It's a slogan, and slogans are not nuanced. What the USSR never did was enshrine that slogan into law literally, it always explicitly addressed able-bodied people.

Let's also look at a more modern constitution, Cuba's, from 2019

ARTICLE 42. All people are equal before the law, recieve the same protection and treatment from authorities and enjoy the same rights, freedoms and opportunities, without discrimination on the basis of sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, ethnic origin, skin color, religious faith, disability, national or territorial origin, or any other condition or personal circumstance that implies a harmful distinction before human dignity.
All have the right to enjoy the same public spaces and establishments.
Likewise, receive the same salary for the same work, without any discrimination.
The violation of the principle of equality is outlawed and is sanctioned by law.
[...]
ARTICLE 64. The right to work is recognized. The person in condition to work has a right to obtain dignified employment, corresponding to their selection, qualification, aptitude, and economic and societal requirements.
ARTICLE 65. Every person has a right for their work to be compensated as a function of its quality and quantity, expression of the socialist principle "from each according to their capacity, to each according to their work".
[...]
ARTICLE 68. The person who works has a right to social security. The State, through the system of social security, guarantees their adequate protection when they are unable to work because of age, maternity, paternity, disability, or illness.
[...]
ARTICLE 70. The State, through social assistance, protects the people without resources or refuge, not capable of working, who lack family members able to bring them help; and to families who, due to the insufficient income they recieve, if they so choose, in accordance with the law

I don't see anywhere a part that says all disabled people are jailed. Cuba definitely does have effective and real protections for all kinds of disabled people, and just like the USSR, the principle of the duty to work is not applied directly to disabled people. It's hard still to find information on the practical application of disability protection that's not funded by Radio Free Whatever, but here's an article about Cuba's:

I hope this addition is helpful: As far as how disabled people in Cuba are treated, I can personally attest to this. I have two disabled family members - a grandfather who cannot work because of a heart condition and an autistic cousin who is nonverbal and cannot attend public school. My grandfather received heart surgery which was successful in prolonging his life so he could have a peaceful old age, and he lives off a pension for disabled people which is enough to cover improvements for the house that he owns (adding an indoor restroom), food, medicine, and other necessities. The wheelchair he was given was free of charge. The only thing that was lacking was aspirin for pain relief after the fact, because Cuba is under blockade and can't buy or trade for many consumer goods that those of us in most of the world can at least theoretically buy. My cousin can't go to school, and it's not known whether he will be able to work as an adult, but despite living in a remote country town far away from centers for education and treatment of disabilities, a special education teacher has been stationed within reasonable distance for him to go and receive the education he can and speech therapy, again, free of charge. Someone from the government sees him regularly to check that his family is treating him well and making recommendations to my aunt for how to improve his quality of life. None of this is policy, none of this is law, and it is just one person's experience. But nobody in my family is some kind of elite government worker who gets special treatment. They're normal rural people, and their disabled lives are valued. I hope this goes to show that communist countries absolutely don't disdain and toss aside the disabled like some people will tell you. They are not left to rot or deemed worthless, they are cared for and valued members of the citizenry. At least, the country my family is from does it this way.
