I mean, sure, that’s great news in a bubble. But the guy spent a good deal of his adult life running like a dog for committing no crime (in his country), this whole ordeal was a warning against further whistleblowers.

Definitely vote, just vote for whatever the closest thing to a revolutionary party that you can, even if that party is only going to get like 2%, revolution won’t happen via the voting box but there’s a reason that the CIA tries to subvert these parties.
Social democrats can “win” sometimes but their advances are fleeting, look at Sweden, Netherlands, and France to see how quickly their gains can be undone. Hell, even Labour in Britain and the Democratic Party in the US were somewhat respectable social democratic parties in the earlier to mid 20th century. However why would they work to shut down CPUSA (before it was co-opted)? Because it can serve as a barometer for revolutionary sentiment.
I have made a special attempt to avoid almost all smartphone use beyond googling things, getting directions and checking emails and it has made reality a lot more real.
I’m old, things are better now but like 15-20 years ago, the bizarre worship of white people was a sickening result of colonialism and neocolonialism. Liberalism has fooled so many non-whites that Westerners became wealthy not by pillaging other people and exploiting them but because we have something inherently superior to us (we don’t).
Fucking liberals… they’re getting desperate.
The reason why Latin America was so threatening to the US is because so much share a similar culture and only two languages… Spanish and Portuguese (which are also very similar) and have the revolutionary vigor of heroes such as Comandante Fidel Castro and el Compañero Ernesto “Che” Guevara, then the new USSR will rise.
Super duper cheap (uses food that’s already going bad), Castilian Bread Soup. Old bread, garlic, oil, and if you want ham, salami or other meat bits that aren’t their freshest… chop it up into tiny cubes, and throw it in.
I’m out and about so I’d have to get you a good recipe later.
The hyper pro-Western bias is like sandpaper that smooths people’s brains. Even in an academic environment speaking about forced voting, when the example was Peru, Americans will shit on it but mention they do it in Australia and suddenly people are more receptive to it. The brainwash is so deep.
And forget about the ones like V*ush that call themselves socialist and denounce agitation and that the only path to revolution is to vote Democrats harder than ever.
I mean live by the sword, die by the sword.
Sorry Europe, especially Western Europe, your prosperity came at the cost of riding the coattails of the Empire… so you being devoured by the Empire to nourish itself was always in the cards.
I hate how liberals say it’s because “they’re dumb”. No, it’s legitimately the case that most of these people have unironically never held a hammer in their lives.
Which is logical, some people enjoy displaying their naked bodies and/or sexual acts. Our problem is that money inherently makes it exploitative.
What consenting adults do with their own bodies and how they choose to share that with other consenting adults is none of any other person’s business.
TSA is so bizarre, they’re literally on guard for a terrorist attack that became unfeasible DURING 9/11 when that one flight crashed in a field in Pennsylvania because the passengers fought back. Not to mention they’ve deadbolted the cockpit doors, there’s always a chance of an Air Marshal on the flight and many pilots are armed…
Some claim they could “simply” bomb the plane. As if it were that easy. Explosives are tightly regulated and controlled and even a homemade 9/11 event simply isn’t happening. Look at every other airplane based attacker from the shoe-bomber, to the underwear bomber to the guy that tried to mix the liquid explosives in the lavatory. Which apparently wouldn’t work, anything liquid that’s unstable enough to be a high explosive couldn’t be casually brought in your hand luggage, and “mixing a binary explosive” in the bathroom is extremely difficult.
They’re chasing ghosts.
Solaris is amazing but it starts really really slow, if you’re used to the pace of Hollywood movies, you’ll lose it. But power through, it’s like 2001: a Space Odyssey but more intelligent.
They don’t know what communism is and they don’t care to know. They’ll powerfully reject even reading the shortest of books to get educated.
What is there to say? There’s no evidence Yiyosaki was wealthy until he started making money from his books, courses and MLM. And his “poor dad” was actually pretty wealthy.
Nerd culture saw itself as white (or certain east-asian), male, middle class plus and in the developed world. It was bound to devolve into reactionary thought. The only pro I see is its tendency to be accepting or at least ambivalent towards transpeople, even 4chan (outside of /pol/) seems to be more accepting towards trans than their political opinions of everything else.
The book, even though it’s liberal, It Came from Something Awful makes a great point about how the “alt-right”… or fascism, just funnels anti-establishment sentiment given that liberals are content as positioning themselves as the “norm” and foolishly believe “the system” will protect them. They honestly believe that if Trump actually starts to become a dictator that the military leadership will turn against the far-right and fight on the left-facing side, that’s literally never happened in all of history. Whenever these maniacs outwardly announce their desires for civil war, liberals think the police and military will be the ones fighting the conservatives for their side. The actual left in the West has been pathetic at trying to reach out to the disaffected rural and small ex-manufacturing town poor population fucked over by capitalism but aren’t aware of it and are charmed by fascist charlatans because even dumb racist, sexist, homophobic explanations for their problems is better than absolutely nothing.
Look how MSNBC and the NYT squirm trying to convince an American population that never recovered from from the Great Recession nor the pandemic and are told to say they’re dumb, and to “look at GDP, it’s never been higher!” Even if so much of that is artificial trillions of dollars authorized to be printed by the Federal Reserve because NMT proves that any nation with a sovereign currency can’t actually spend their way into inflation.
These dudes are always the weirdest closet cases… I feel like they like femboys because they have secondary traits that society has deemed “feminine” and need a way to explain how they aren’t LGBTQ+ by suggesting the opposite is somehow true. Just accept everyone is on the spectrum to some degree and carry on.
