Absolutely. Its funny to see US socdems praising the “nordic model” or NHS, when those things are rapidly being dismantled. You can’t avoid the laws of capitalism, or expect that any capitalist dictatorship posing as a “democracy” will be able to keep their social welfare programs for long.



Ya its Dune. Although muad dib might be from there, Frank Herbert took a lot of themes from north Africa and the ME.



No its the chance in their lifetime that they will spend any time imprisoned.





Also wanna add that the CPRF ( which is the 2nd largest party in Russia, contrast with Ukraine which has effectively outlawed the communist party since 2014 ), supports the war.

Their reasoning is extremely solid and that article should be read by all the ppl who think russia is “doing an imperialism.”


The idea of publicists sitting down their wealthy clients and saying, “for some reason you don’t seem to be polling well with the poverty demograpic, we need to set up some surface-level charity gigs with news stories and photo ops to make those numbers go positive.” is really funny to me.





In Ukraine Russia is Fighting Neo-Nazism  – Communist Party of the Russian Federation
Good section: In terms of the Marxist theory the military conflict in Ukraine cannot be described as an imperialist war, as our comrades would argue. It is essentially a national liberation war of the people of Donbass. From Russia’s point of view it is a struggle against an external threat to national security and against Fascism. It is no secret that the Donbass militia was unable to resist the many-thousand-strong foreign-armed Ukrainian armed forces. A defeat of the militias would have led to the annihilation of the Russian-speaking population, a large proportion of which are citizens of Russia. Under the Constitution of the RF, Russia took legitimate action to protect its citizens and ensure its national security because it could not have been done by other means.

Yup, for whatever reason, pry long term strategy ones, he thinks its a bad idea for NATO to get involved in a quagmire in Ukraine.







Libs: OMG so wholesome 🥰


That list is collaborative, why not just add to it?




Not sure, could have its origins there. I’m sure someone has traced the origins of all these white supremacist symbols the soldiers are wearing.








Ukrainian politicians trying to find and post a picture of a Ukrainian soldier without nazi insignia challenge (impossible).

Yeah I always found that weird too, just tie it to inflation.


I saw a tweet today along the lines of: “the fight for a $15 minimum wage has now gone on for so long that it’s outdated.”



Its just opportunist opposition. When the republicans are in power, they bomb the ME and start wars everywhere, and the democrats pretend to hate war. Now the dems are in power, so the republicans pretend to hate war.



The full nickname of the account is “human rights watch watcher”. IE pointing out the imperialist apologism of HRW.






Up to you, but every few months its a good idea to change up your username, especially if you’re the type to give away personal info like your name, email, location, etc.


Its tough for journos, but at least on these platforms we shouldn’t be using real names.




Czech republic and slovakia are sending weapons now?

Seems like the strategy is to restart an arms race, but how much is the US willing to fund it, and how much are they hoping eastern europe will pay the bill.





It shows the Nike factories in Sri Lanka, 70% women and the average age is 13 years old.

The US didn’t get rid of child labor, they just exported it.


Moses wasn’t allowed to carry down the 10 commandments, cause they were NFTs.




Their tweet last week should probably go down as one of the funniest moments in twitter history: for women’s day, they posted a picture of a female Ukrainian troop who was wearing a nazi emblem, and found after a tiny bit of digging to be a sieg-heiling nazi.


They did, many times. They were called red scares / mccarthyism, which ruined thousands of lives.


Due to their baby-level understanding of imperialism, they’ll fist-fight neo-nazis at home, and then enlist in their country’s reactionary militaries killing people in the middle east and eurasia on behalf of the US / NATO.



Tell us more, o wise orientalist, of the crimes of the barbaric asiatic hordes.


Its notable that your compassion only extends to the imperialist footsoldier murderer, not to the Iraqi woman and child.


The western propaganda machine has created thousands of euro-amerikkkan supremacist fighters willing to give up their lives for NATO for free. Very scary that reddit allows that warfare tourist sub to exist.

We’re just lucky that russia is able to take out this trash, because its that many less white-supremacist soldiers we’ll have to deal with.
