Thank you for posting. Interesting stuff.

The American alt right is really weird. We have the odd person like that in Europe (in some countries more than others like Hungary) but not quite as bad.

Race is a bit different here. There is a journalist from the UK (Gary Young) who lived a lot of his life in America who said, when discussing the comparison of race in UK and USA “the thing is, in America, ultimately everything is about race. Whereas in the UK it is all about class”

I thought the first bit about the right wing provocateur complex was insightful but the rest was a rambling hodgepodge altogether too moored to the American context. Looking across cultures and eras allows one to see parallels and simplify it beyond the quirks of time and place. Corey Robin distilled the right wing in all it's variants, to the feeling of having one's power, real, former or imagined, threatened and fighting back, to protect spheres of hierarchy (i.e. domination) - the family, the workplace, the head of state.

Also lol I found his manner of speaking pretty annoying. Not quite Ben Shapiro level but...

My family and I want to move from Florida to the Seattle area in 5 years. My husband is in Aerospace Engineering. We both love nature, hiking, and rock climbing. We prefer cool rain over sunshine, miss seeing the seasons, and love to cook.
Any advice, Pros VS Cons, anything to look out for ?

Additional Posts in Socialism

For those who want some lighter reading on Marx, I can recommend this. Each chapter starts with a standard anti-Marx argument and then gives the rebuttal. The left can sometimes be a bit “I can’t believe you disagree, I won’t even engage’ but this means we are often not well rehearsed to oppose the other side of the argument.

This bowl is kind of quiet.
I don’t know much about the topic so I don’t personally have much to contribute. Was hoping for more activity in here.

I would suggest having a thread or threads about defending socialism against capitalism. In the real world anti-socialist ideas/arguments are made all the time and for those lessed versed in socialist thought, it can be hard to defend one's position and perhaps even be persuaded bythe capitalists. Just an idea
