Liquid breathing is definitely possible, you’ve even done it before (in the womb), but it’s probably not possible with something like blood. I think your friend was probably mixing up two different concepts

There’s this thing called social democracy,
and almost every nation in the world has a social democratic party. The left wing of these social democratic parties tend to be full on democratic socialists.

There’s a good chance that the welfare system in whatever country you live in was built by these social democratic parties and influenced by its left wing of democratic socialists.

Even in the U.S. FDR’s Liberalism has been called “bootleg social democracy” by some historians, and his policies were influenced (though often more as concessions than willing adoption) of the more socialist leaning unions of his time. Even today, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party could be described as social democratic, with its leftmost members (Bernie Sanders and AOC) being democratic socialists.

Idk man democratic socialists seem to have been succeeding in doing it almost globally for a century now.

Look at the left of any social democratic party and you’re bound to find some.

Thank you for the horse facts. Is it normal for working horses to have dope ass bang haircuts like that?

They don’t even care if they’re Nazis, So yea.

Do you really think the U.S government are just self declaring Nazis?

Everything you said was covered with 4 layers of hyperbole.

Don’t be hyperbolic, it’s not 1984 and you still live on a democracy. You won’t face any serious criminal repercussions for saying anything in Canada or any other democracy.

Wouldn’t be so quick to assume that if I were you.

The Biden Admin saved Lula (a socialist) from a coup by Bolsonaro

The Biden Admin has also pursued closer ties to the socialist government of Chile.

It seems that the Biden administration is perfectly okay with socialists, as long as they adhere to democracy.

Likely just a common tit for tat attack in retaliation for the Israelis bombing the Iranian embassy in Syria

Here’s a past example

Fuck, can we ban this? I normally hate passing laws that don’t really do anything, but it’s so hard to figure out what a program is from the name when every single government agency insists on shoving an acronym in the name.

It could absolutely end up being that, but an increased amount of even just social media communications between Chinese and Western people probably wouldn’t be a horrible idea.

Reactionary unlike the homophobic theocracy leaning dictatorship currently invading Ukraine?

Liberalism does not just mean capitalism. Most of Liberal thought is about political rights, the kind of political rights that Putin obviously has no care for.

Last time I checked, Putin, the one who invaded Ukraine, is certainly not a Liberal.

This is the take that makes people feel like they can shoot grandma’s and burn children. You can run an effective resistance without targeting civilians ask the ANC.

I mean when there’s a genocidal right-wing dictatorship next door that’s taken up invading nation’s as a hobby, of course they’re gonna vote for the one whose highest priority is security.

The only reason to simp for Wagner is to be so brain fucked by the atrocities of the West that any other country’s atrocities somehow become “liberatory police actions” in comparison.

Non-amp link, stop simping for rapists and mass murderers.

Don’t think we’d necessarily need the CIA for that one, seems that the Russians have been doing the work for us.

We’ll see if the new group is as awful as Wagner was.

Kiwifarms was actively carrying out doxxing and targeted harassment campaigns that led to the suicides of multiple people. Whatever your opinion is on Keffals, this is a fact, and it’s what got Kiwifarms taken down, Keffals was just the loudest voice pointing it out.

Just wanna add that Dorothy Day is currently under consideration for sainthood in the catholic church, the Pope also used her as an example when speaking to congress of what each one of the representatives should be more like.

I’d say he’s about the closest to liberation theology as we’ve ever had, maybe ever will have but hopefully that isn’t the case.

Thank you for finding this, I read it years ago when it was linked on another comment on reddit and its stuck with me since.
