The general Lemmy audience mostly hasn't read Parenti's work. Much more discussion of his death in Lemmy's commie communities. But everyone on this side of Lemmy thinks communism = dictatorship, so you're not going to see discussions of hyper-critical writers and activists over here.

What if we're in a "fall of the Roman empire" type scenario? Shit does not feel like business as usual.

My fellow worker: YOU need to buy a gun and legally protest with it. The fact that pro-gun Republicans are a lost cause doesn't imply armed resistance is a lost cause.

Part of the reason that Donnie can send ICE into blue cities is because many of us are unarmed. Imagine what would happen if we took lessons from the Black Panther Party and patrolled our streets with armed neighborhood watches.

A lot of small dogs try to warn their owners of how they're feeling. But because they're small, and because people don't know how to read dog language, the warning signs are ignored. So the dog has to escalate in order to get their point across.

Once you begin to learn how dogs communicate you realize that most owners are misinterpreting their dog's behavior.
