Historically vanguards only ever derive any form of power or legitimacy through popular support from the broader working classes. Had vanguards not been popularly supported, they would have failed. You can see examples of supposed “vanguards” that do fail, such as the Gonzaloist CPP Shining Path, which slaughtered peasants and alienated themselves from the working classes.
Sources like the BBC, New York Times, The Guardian, The Hill, Jacobin, Reuters, The Natiob, and Al Jazeera are “paid by the Kremlin?” I know fascists like you thrive on irrationality, but there’s a limit to denying reality.
From davel’s compilation:
Ukraine ethnically cleansing the Donbass region, which popularly supports Russia, is what started the war. The Euromaidan coup is what kicked off the war in 2014, Russia entered in 2022 after the Minsk agreements failed. Had NATO not couped Ukraine, the war would have never happened.
I understand you perfectly well, you’re an open book. You’re an anti-communist, homophobic, racist Euronationalist, ie a fascist. It’s pretty clear-cut. Nationalism in the global north perpetuates imperialism, fascism is anti-communist, you think people in the global south are ethnically inferior and you tell queer people that they need to not be offended by your homophobia. There’s no possibility you could be anything other than far-right, be it socially or economically.
Nah, you got banned for good reason, you’re an incredibly racist, homophobic, far-right Euronationalist. Your attitude towards the global south is straight out of the colonial era.
I gave western sources that are biased against Russia and pro-Kiev still admitting to the ethnic cleansing campaign. Secondly, war in Ukraine is unpopular! They have to rely on forced conscription to keep the war going. There’s a decent amount of nationalists in Ukraine that support the Banderites just like there are a decent number of MAGA supporters outside of the government in the US Empire, but by and large the war is unpopular. That’s also why Kiev is finally trying to concede and reach a peace deal.
You’ve got this thought terminating ideology where if something disagrees with your far-right narrative, you immediately disagree with it, even if the sources are from outlets that share your world view.
It’s less that and more that as capitalism turns to imperialism, it outsources all it can while trying to maintain a tech monopoly, creating “high value add” industry. The problem is that this “value add” industry doesn’t actually add any more value than other kinds of industry, its just kept as a tech monopoly, but China’s been able to break into that tech monopoly and fight those monopolist prices.
I can’t ban anyone, lol, and I’m absolutely correct here. The communists, as usual, are correct.
Ukraine’s government isn’t innocent, they have been ethnically cleansing ethnic Russians post-Euromaidan coup. Ukraine is not all Nazi, the Nazis in Ukraine are largely in the government of Ukraine and in fascist groups now folded into the government and millitary officially. I’m not wrong here at all, you still haven’t explained how Nazis committing ethnic cleansing is okay.
Mausritter is very kid friendly!
Saying that Muslims can only run theocracies is racist. The original commenter didn’t say “theocracy bad,” but instead “Muslims only capable of theocracy.” Further, they were wrong to claim the US Empire is more trustworthy than anyone else.
Incredible racism, holy shit.
The Problem of Recognition in Transitional States, Or Sympathy for the Monster is an excellent essay on the importance of trans rights and communism.
The PRC, DPRK, Cuba, Vietnam, and Laos are all definitively socialist, and quasi-socialist states like Venezuela, Nicaragua, Belarus, etc. also exist.
Believe it or not, Crimeans supported being in the Russian Federation and not in a government run by Nazis post-coup. You yourself said Russia was being imperialist, annexation isn’t imperialism, imperialism is a specific form of international extractionism. Annexing territory can happen for a variety of reasons, only some of which is indicative of imperialism.
There is no evidence of Russia continuing beyond the 4 oblasts in Ukraine that isn’t NATO manufacturing consent for protracted war with Russia. Russia has no reason to continue beyond, but NATO has very good reason to want people to think they will.
Deny reality all you like.
Socialist countries do exist, yes.
Obfuscating systemic problems of capitalism to individuals like Pinochet, Hitler, Batista, Churchill, Trump, etc is one effective method of protecting capitalism from accurate analysis. Socialist countries are run by the working class, and yet are also demonized and reduced merely to the actions of individual socialist leaders to play off of the prior propaganda model.
Are you asking why settlers aren’t overthrowing Israel? Because they’re settlers, and are benefitting from settoer-colonialism.
The point of the meme is people jumping to Bluesky from X are jumping into another boiling pot, when they could jump to the fediverse and avoid the problems with both. That AI made the image doesn’t take away from that message, you yourself understood OP’s point fully. OP didn’t just say “make a meme,” you’re engagng with OP’s point.
Hangol is very easy to learn, you can learn it in a day if you wanted to. Grammar and vocab take much, much longer though.
