“Make it all about the US.” Who owns and regulates terms for the imf? The world bank? Who imposes sanctions/blockades on other countries? Which country has almost 900 overseas military bases? Who was involved in over 70 coups? Who attacked over 40 countries since ww2? The US made it all about the US

Kind of weird how whenever another countries government stands up to US imperialism they are immediately authoritarian, terrorist dictators. But then the US will turn around and support actual authoritarian,terrorist dictators that are friendly to the US.

브라질 메탈 밴드 '세풀투라'의 창립 멤버였던 막스 카발레라가 본인 인스타에 룰라를 지지하는 슬로건을 올리며 세풀투라의 대표곡 <Refuse / Resist>를 인용했는데요, 놀랍게도 이 곡은 한국과 연관되어 있다는 사실! 왜냐면 싱글반의 커버가 경찰에 맞서 화염병으로 저항하는 어떤 한국 시위대의 사진이거든요. 물론 막스는 조롱이나 비난의 의도가 아니라(권력집단의 횡포에 맞서 저항하자는)가사 내용에 맞는 모습이라 해당 사진을 선정했어요. 뮤비에도 1980년대 한국의 시위 영상이 나와요. youtu.be/6ODNxy3YOPU?...

Max Cavalera pública esta foto en Instagram. Tremendos mongolos diciendo que ya no van a volver a escuchar a Sepultura. No sé qué coño creen que ha pensado siempre Max Cavalera.

The Holocaust — a greater evil — resulted from individuals choosing the lesser evil over and over again:

It is, fundamentally, an exercise of choosing the lesser evil, over and over and over again, so that the total amount of evil in the system decreases over time. And you must keep doing it, because - since evil is easy - good is easily reversed.

Dont give a fuck if you call me a tankie or not. NATO is an extension of the most heinous military on the planet. Just because libs dont want to accept that, doesnt make it not true. It does not exist to protect human life. It exists to end it.

The US is at war with all of Russia’s trade partners and their pushing for a more militarized EU but somehow that is aiding Russia? This “Russia-gate” is qanon for liberals.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

“Why didn’t the communist left suck it up and compromise with the SPD, who was beating up and killing communists in the street with the help of their fascist allies?”

Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li@sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com

it is, quite famously, as a matter of explicit communist policy, the fact that the communist left refused to compromise with the social democrats (look up "social fascism") that allowed the *right* the space to bring hitler into power like this is all just straightforward lies

The more I think about the whole plot line to lanterns the more fucked up and propagandized it sounds. Brain washed terrorist aliens invading a small town with a flawed but necessary space military police force holding them at bay.
