Buttering hard to reach bread, probably.

Not bad.

I feel that. I wish I could be smug about dropping a childhood fascination for political reasons but it was never really interesting.

If you really wanted capitalism gone, getting rid of humans is a lasting solution. The tricky part is getting the humans on board with the plan.

It’s probably a lot easier to convince the humans to just do communism.

Unionise, strikes, mutual aid, and other forms of collective action that leverage the power of a group of people to their benefit.

Fights though? Where did you get that from?

Hey now, just because we’re communists doesn’t mean we can’t have a dozen different brands of the same joke.

A three letter agency employee has just learnt about the process of elimination.

(Athel for short)

Would these western leftists…

Yes. The western left loves the communists who were crushed.

You would hear “Stalin would have built a much better nation than Mao did.” Just like you hear about Trotsky.

Exactly this. He’s already acknowledged China has no interest in the current set of demands.

Donates to pro-USAF orgs.

This article is written in the premise that these “mistakes” are any action that causes the US to take a hostile action. Presumably the ideal strategy would be to tiptoe around the US and never act counter to it’s agenda.

It’s the tune of an imperialist. The empire has only one direction and if you get hurt standing in its way it’s your own fault. Let’s not mention the likelihood that you’ll get hurt anyway.

And they don’t elaborate whatsoever. Goddamit.

I’m relieved to say I wasn’t part of it. I’m not about to take your word on how it really went down though since I can read.

our little arrogant tone. The self awareness is genuinely spooky.

Exhibit A here folks.

This lib has equated “your tastes are juvenile” with telling them to off themselves. This ambitious stretch of reality is necessary to reduce this community to a hateful mob without nuanced opinion in their eyes.

Eventually loves it when the scrappy underdog comes out on top!

“What does that mean?”

It means he’s forgotten who the president is again.

It’s interesting how clear this article makes it that this is a proxy war. Instead they make it clear that it’s NATO equipment and the will of the US that is pitted against Russia. No mention whatsoever of Ukrainian agency.

I was tickled by the author suggesting the US tries to negotiate peace to prevent total Russian victory, as the concept isn’t absolutely alien to the US.
