Here's why unions are no longer a political force for good

Dock workers union promises Biden that weapons shipments to Israel would NEVER be interrupted.
Unions are officially sell outs with no humamist commitments.
The working class individual provides an endless source of labor and violence for the capitalist, his utter devotion to the war and the slaving business reality he inhabits makes him dangerous to anyone who might complain or try to start a political movement. If the working idiots are too stupid to recognize their prey then the capitalist tells them through memes. Antifa. You hate anti fascists. So they do.

Why single out Israel? Are they going to refuse to unload shipments from China? I know you don’t GAF about the Uyghurs, so I guess that doesn’t count.

@LeopoldBloom really! They're war mongers in general. Obviously unions are just sold out. And nobody left who cares, everyone just work and don't worry about the killing! I'm sure it's perfectly true.

@LeopoldBloom Note that she proves your point perfectly.

@CorvusBlackthorne Why single out anyone at all? I'd ask why sending weapons to a conflict zone doesn't bother you or the union?

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

@Roundandroundwego I would ask you why it is you wish for Ukraine to be obliterated.

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@CorvusBlackthorne that's mean. Peace is everyone's right and responsibility. Why the endless aggression, Why do you want war in Europe,? It's normal to be against war. It's aggression when you can't defend yourself without attacking Russia. Peace in Europe certainly doesn't help avert socialism or democracy so Americans can't question the necessary criminality, aka NATO.

@Roundandroundwego It is not mean to point out that what you want is for everyone to stop standing up to Russia. Russian supremacy forever. That is your motto.

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@CorvusBlackthorne peace eludes you, that's your way of being dangerous. The Western mind rolls its eyes at me over its aggression? No kidding! You don't have to justify it, right? You got no responsibility to build peace? Just sneering at the leftist is all?

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

@Roundandroundwego The concept of Vladimir Putin not wanting peace eludes you. He is the warmonger you pretend me to be.

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@CorvusBlackthorne everyone has a responsibility to make peace, even Putin. It's the West that only benefits from war and refuses to negotiate. War is okay for you,? You hate Putin so we get war,?

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

@Roundandroundwego Once again, your straw man argument fails to impress. Putin does not desire peace. He desires conquest, and you intend giving it to him.

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@CorvusBlackthorne Putin may have desires, but as a president he has the responsibility to make peace. He definitely has admitted that! Let's pretend you could not know this and people call me a liar often when there's no evidence.
Obviously that's impossible for the Western war waging classes to admit. International laws like the responsibility to negotiate peace would apply to the USA, as well! No wonder it had no reason to allow negotiations - the population doesn't even admit that peace is their responsibility. Putin's desires? Wow. Barbarism. The West can be called the Barbaric Billion.

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

@Roundandroundwego Then perhaps you should go and speak to him, since you think he can be reasoned with. I have no such faith in his better nature, and do not understand why anyone does.

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@CorvusBlackthorne personal joke and accepting war. Yup! The West is like that. I assume "why don't you go talk to him" means you don't care about peace and roll your eyes at the people who think seriously about it. Okay! No more peace.
No more words wasted on the West. It's one enemy that will stay the enemy until it's gone.

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

@Roundandroundwego I have never once said I do not care about peace. I care very passionately about peace. It is simply that Vladimir Putin cannot be reasoned with.

Tell me, my friend. Were this the 1930s, would you demand that the United States negotiate with Adolf Hitler?

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@CorvusBlackthorne it's the law, all governments have a responsibility to negotiate peace and to avoid hostilities. Most people opposed WWII but you know what happened! Violence wins. Violence is the good war, unless you are an international socialist or a Christian leftist. WWII was a victory for fascists who started it. Peace was the alternative. So you have no responsibility to make peace and no responsibility to admit it is the law. USA claims it has a new "rules based order"- it means you choose war.

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

@Roundandroundwego And once again, your lies tell me more than honesty from you ever could. You hold the United States responsible for the war crimes of Russia, whilst trying to excuse Russia. And now we know you would have done the same for Hitler and Germany. You will not be happy until fascists from Europe have destroyed democracy.
