What is the bias?

Sounds like whatsboutism. What time is it in Moscow?

It seems pretty clear you just don’t know what imperialism is full stop.

The article does not describe any political persecution, it just repeats a vague assertion by one guy and then makes implications about COVID lockdowns

Capitalism will not abide people not working just because they don’t want to. Even in rich countries like the US where imperialism and the undocumented immigrant labor underclass could provide everything truly needed to survive, capitalism requires that the population be exploited to realize even greater profits.

I mention imperialism and the immigrant labor underclass because work is still necessary for production and momentary examples to the contrary (e.g. COVID lockdowns) are an illusion built on the backs of the hyperexploited. However, if we were able to depose capitalism, we could focus our efforts on eliminating the need for work rather than building everything around profit maximization.

Democrats and university admins just ran a standard PR playbook. They depend on students’ naivete to succeed at it, and that worked. Several encampmentd accepted mere promises of consideration to disband while others got stronger concess but without them actually being in hand, which were easy to renege on.

For campus protest to work against something as entrenched as Zionism, these lessons need to be learned and consistently passed on and there need to be strong ties to orgs outside the university that can provide seasoned advice.

That’s a process error, not an individual’s fault. Sounds like not a single person reviewed the code, they just said, “sounds good, deploy!” on a major production system.

You can be certain that there are tons of other bugs in the system that just have more subtle effects.

Endemic doesn’t mean unserious and vaccines do not prevent transmission or long COVID.

In other words, the person with a correct opinion at the party. What a nice compliment!

Be ready to board a plane and get out early enough.

The first is about having money. Easier said than done, of course. If you want to be particularly secure, you’d consider having enough gold for it, as it’s an inflation hedge and I would not be surprised if hyperinflation coincided with these things. Yes I know that buying gold sounds silly lol.

The second is about deciding when to fight and when to run. Not easy and a personal decision, but people who stay too long if we lose will be in a bad situation.

When things ramp up, socialists may need to flee (or get jailed/killed).

It’s happened many times before. Also, the fash don’t understand our divisions so they’ll go after everyone vaguely left. Example: Indonesian DemSocs thought they’d be spared under Suharto since they persued 100% legal and “friendly” means. They were very wrong.

Spend time with comrades, get organized, agitate, snd have an exit plan.
