    If you look at the video in its entirety he spent the interview basically saying "we might vocally support bad things but republicans exist so...." by saying "the other side was talking about eating cats and dogs so why are we talking about fracking" and the short video @Parzivus@hexbear.net posted is basically the end on the interview and him just saying that when pressed by NBC about why Harris and him changed sides on the issue.

    Still a massive shithead but not as incoherent as I first thought when I saw the first video.

    Don’t forget the fascist SVP party getting fucked there as well, it has been rare in the past 25years that they lose.

    They were literally saying the following on their websites a few days ago:

    The SP and the unions want to destroy our tried-and-tested three-pillar model by integrating the 2nd pillar into the AHV in a kind of communist people's pension.

    Please don’t threaten me with a good time lmao

    I have to admit I know nothing of the geopolitical situation there, but I always had a soft spot for Burkina Faso ever since I learned about Thomas Sankara.

    Apart from telling France imperialism to fuck off, which is a good thing, do we know more about their plan for the future confederation?

    On the other hand having a fascist private group (to my knowledge) like Wagner there to help you ensure security, sucks.

    No worries I did not feel attacked. I certainly am aware of how drugs have been used in the past and especially how their criminalization was used to oppress people.

    I still think that even in a socialist society people would use drugs because it's fun. I would hope that as you mention in such a society abuse would happen way less due to not needing it as a way to cope with our shitty lives. Criminalization imho would not solve an issue but create stigma around using while not actually stopping people from using them.

    I think forbidding use usually creates more dangerous way of people using them. (e.g. Consuming more at once and using drugs that might be cut with shit)

    I have no idea what's China policy on drugs, are users thrown in jail like in most countries ? I don't think that because something was used by a colonialist state to fuck up a population it should be banned (even though I can empathize with the trauma around it). I feel it's like currently LGBT rights are pink washed by neo colonialist states to try to justify why they do fucked up things in some countries does not justify these countries then oppressing LGBT communities to get back at the colons(even worse when most of the anti LGBT laws were initially created by these same colons in the past centuries).

    What is China's position on alcohol and cigarettes? These are usually example of drugs that are legal and not stigmatized (despite having a high risk of abuse)

    I unfortunately do not have have a lot of questions about trains, it's my main way of transportation and has been during most of my life. I also have a friend who happens to be obsessed by trains and their miniature models and she usually gives me a lecture about trains once a month lmao

    Interesting topic, I have to say that I have not thought a lot about it even though I'm a sentientist vegan. I think the fact that cats usually kill a lot of other sentient animals when outdoors is a problem for me. I would much prefer people not to continue breeding animals and keep aeimals just for their own pleasure as I think it causes a lot of issues.

    I would much prefer cats to be kept indoor and fed a well formulated and supplemented plant based diet as from my research I did not see any indication it cannot be done. I would also prefer cats to be sterilized as I think it's one of the less cruel way to prevent the population from exploding due to the facts we breed them with no care for them or the other non human animals.

    However I have no idea whether it is a problem for cats to be kept indoor their entire lives, do you have resources on this subject?

    I'm pro legalization of drugs as I think prohibition does not help society and war on drugs is a failure which worsen risks associated with drugs consumption, production and sale.

    I would like drugs to be sold and controlled by the state to ensure sufficient quality control as well as having comprehensive harm reductions methods and/or courses available to the population and more specifically visible in sale points.

    Help to deal with addiction in persons that are considering their addiction a problem should be freely available.

    I would also love for the sigmats about consumption to disappear .

    Hey, I’m quite new here learning stuff, having fun and mostly not understanding a whole lot, although I only had nice interactions around here ![comrade-doggo](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/8738ded8-0c82-4e17-b6c0-a8fc7e640e2c.png "emoji comrade-doggo") Please share resources you think would be nice for me to learn about. Also feel free to ask my opinion about various subjects and teach me if you think I’m wrong/ignorant. I reserve the right to ignore some stuff as I suffer from anxiety and sometime getting out there is hard. I might also be willing to discuss via SimpleX I consider myself a leftist although not that educated.
