The kids at the bottom either look terrified, miserable, or extremely arrogant and look down on anyone they perceive beneath them.ni just can't tell.

Leftism

Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

MODERATORS
They probably where just told that they must cosplay as a couch later on.
What company are the 3 kids on the left middle management for?
On the right, no?
Gd that face gets me every time.
You cannot say you care at all about education and not make sure students are being fucking fed. I don't care what political dogma you subscribe to, feeding kids in school needs to be a priority period. Once that is fixed (and it should take no more than like a week to fix in my opinion), the US needs to also better regulate the quality of food provided in schools. On average it is atrocious in this country.
No, we couldn't possibly feed these children! They just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and get to work! Maybe then they'll be able to afford food! /s
Even a good sweatshop knows if you feed the children you get more labor return out of them. That's what I mean, you can spin this from whatever angle you want and the answer is always feed them.
The thing is, the people pushing these anti-free-lunch policies don't actually care about the children.
The majority of those in poverty are not white.
Voters (and the politicians they support) are substantially more white in the Republican party, than the Democratic party.
And the Republican party often ends up spreading white supremacist ideology like the Great Replacement Theory.
When kids in poverty can't learn, or even survive, due to lack of food, are of a race you think is trying to replace you, and you know is less likely to vote for you... well, I think you can see their motivations.
Once upon a time white supremacist were the periphery of the republican party. Sure many mainstream Republicans were racist as all hell, but few were outright white supremacists. But over time the far right and altright have taken over. Now the alleged moderate republican is the periphery.
Tim looks so chuffed there. It's nice :)
Those poor kids with Sarah Slanders look absolutely horrified, rightly so
Imagine being told that these two groups of faces are from people all in the same picture, and what that would tell you about the relationship between the two groups.
That fuckin' Porg-lookin' cunt.
I think that's unfair. The left one is a cute, non-sentient bird and the right is a weird, non-sapient piece of shit.
Ugh... I had forgotten about this banana peel. She sends shiver down my spine...
Looks aside, she's actually a real ghoul. My heart breaks for those poor kids
Remember, Republicans say "protect", but they mean "control."
I must isolate and protect you from yourself. Pet
Even that's the old republicans. These perverts want to look at children's genitals. Fucking weirdos
And marry them.
Let's not forget legalising child labour, as well as mandating child labour.
Fascists are fucking perverts. And I don't mean that in a fun, anti-system way. I mean freakishly, evil perversion.
The 1950s ideas that sexual repression is what caused the Nazis were wrong but thet were onto something about fascism and sexual expression.
Fascists are freaks, and again I stress as a queer, non-normative sexual expressive person, not in a fun way.
Tradwife shit is literally just bondage and domination without enthusiastic consent.
Exactly
Not that I disagree with your assessment, but this is just another kind of control - it's about having power over a person's body, while denying them the agency to stop you. Sexual abuse and rape are rarely driven by lust or desire; they come from a need to dominate, to manipulate, and to express total power over someone.
