Is it because their views are essentially the status quo already and they have just fully internalised the capitalist propeganda?
That's pretty close imo. I'd just add that most of them have never set foot outside of capitalist propaganda
Every part of their media diet is bourgeois media, because naturally the owning class owns that too. The views presented to them with any degree of fidelity are necessarily non-threatening to bourgeois rule, and they make up the range of views that people feel are normal. Conservative bile is acceptable, and liberal outlets for empathy such as charity and saying to 
are too
Meanwhile, in much of the west including the US, it has been outright illegal in recent history to be left-wing. Even now that it isn't explicitly illegal in the US, we have Stop Cop City protesters being charged as an anarchist terrorist conspiracy

To me it evokes a mentality where other people's appearances are only considered through the lens of how they serve the person speaking. I'm not a fan. Even where complimenting someone's appearance is appropriate, I think it frames the compliment as "you're not like those uggos I hate seeing"

It means working from within the Democratic party to make it better, even when it has betrayed its values.
What values?
I fought for redress for my community and have spent my life ensuring that America understood that we could not betray our Constitution in such a way ever again.
Constitution? That shit was talking about white men only and we're really gonna lean on it?

Watch out folks, they've got ~~conference rooms~~ unofficial police stations here and they're ~~cyberbullying anticommunists on Zoom~~ threatening American citizens. We know because the US Justice Department and Meta told us so >Other posts by the network have referenced how “racism is an indelible shame on American democracy” and how the US committed “cultural genocide against the Indians,” according to a Meta report in August. Another post claimed that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is “riddled with scandals.” This whole long-ass article is a work of art [archive link](https://archive.is/YWNoq)

You know how capitalist rags talk about Communism as an infectious ideology that can subvert the mushy minds of marginalized people, rather than being a natural response by thinking people to the material conditions they're subjected to? This episode is about that

I wanted to outline my understanding of the West's relation to Zionism since it's been on my mind a lot lately. I'm interested in feedback for any details I might have wrong or lacking context. So, we have Christianity being born out of Judaism and then being syncretized into the Roman Empire, which propagates its version of Christianity throughout its territory as part of its imperial structure. The empire wanes and leaves behind the politico-religious concept of Christendom or "the Christian world". By the time that capitalism became Europe's dominant mode of production, Western Christianity was largely separated from Eastern Christianity and thus Eastern Christendom, and was relatively united under Catholicism. Importantly, papal bulls had established the Doctrine of Discovery, which set out instructions for (implicitly Western if I understand correctly) Christian countries to cooperate in the mission of subjugating and Christianizing non-Christian peoples. Even as the Reformation birthed Protestantism and wars were fought within (Western, but this is the last time I'm going to note that distinction) Christendom, the Doctrine of Discovery was mainly respected as something like property law among European Christian nations, including Protestant ones. Notably, Europe is white as hell and the people they colonized were not. Through various means including pseudoscience and theology, European colonial powers reinforced their ideology with a new system of racism that would become the white supremacism we can recognize today. Tied in with the notions of Whiteness and Christendom, Europe (including the Russian empire in this instance) also forged the variety of antisemitism that would ultimately be advanced by the Nazis. To this day, the successor states of former European colonies including the US cite the Doctrine of Discovery as their root source of legitimacy. This is reinforced by white supremacist ideology outrageously insisting indigenous peoples had no "civilization" in the first place, so that instead of unjustly plundering the world, the White Christian West was merely building civilization where none had been before. It follows the same racist reasoning, then, to claim that disparities in wealth between the West and its colonies were due to intrinsic differences in peoples and/or some need for a people to "mature" for generations under Christianity. By the early 1900s, antisemitism remained homogenous across the West. Most notably it helped fuel the rise of Nazi Germany, which left the US in a privileged position to capitalize on WWII and centralize bourgeois power under its own flag. Still homogeneously antisemitic, the West, led increasingly by the US and witnessing the deterioration of the traditional colonial relationship, determined to concentrate much of its Jewish population in Britain's colonial territory in Palestine. The status of Jews as non-white was leveraged both to drive Jews out of the imperial core and to encourage an impression that they could only become and remain liberated by forming a "homeland" in the fashion of the West. This both gratified antisemites by voluntary deportation of Jews, and solved the problem of holding on to an increasingly unprofitable colony. The present result would seem to be a near-universal Zionist stance within the Western bourgeoisie (which is *the* bourgeoisie in the global sense) and its institutions, and an Israeli ethnostate that is nominally Jewish but is in fact syncretized with White Supremacism as evidenced by their treatment of black Ethiopian Jewish immigrants.

 >The massive bronze sculpture of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, in uniform, astride his horse Traveller, stood in a downtown Charlottesville park for nearly a century. It was at the center of a deadly white nationalist rally in 2017, when Neo-Nazis and white supremacists tried to stop the city's plans to remove the statue. > >It came down to cheers in July of 2021. [...] >Charlottesville prevailed in a protracted legal battle with the Sons of Confederate Veterans and other groups, and donated the Lee statue to a coalition that proposed to melt it down and create a more inclusive public art installation. [...] >Lawsuits to stop the project failed, and last weekend organizers moved forward, with great secrecy, to disassemble and melt down the Lee monument. > >The work is being done at an out-of-state foundry. NPR agreed not to reveal its location or the identity of the workers because they fear repercussions. > >They use a torch to score the head of the statue, in the pattern of a death mask. Lee's face falls to floor with a loud clank. > >The symbolism is poignant for Andrea Douglas, executive director of the Jefferson School African American Cultural Center in Charlottesville, which is leading the project. > >"The act of myth-making that has occurred around Robert E. Lee, removing his face is emblematic of the kind of removal of that kind of myth," Douglas says. > >The project is called Swords into Plowshares, taken from a Bible verse in the book of Isaiah. [...] >The melting down of the Lee statue will take weeks. It weighed nearly 10,000 pounds. Organizers say the next step will be choosing an artist who will craft the bronze ingots into a new art form to be displayed in Charlottesville. [archive link](https://archive.ph/d8apL)
