Fuck it. I’ll volunteer western NY to just become part of Ontario. We don’t even need to be our own province.
Anyone who’s not asleep saw that coming.
The neo Nazis think he was, and that was his audience. That’s enough for me.
Uh. The launch happened yesterday per space.com. I agree with shitting on muskrat and oligarchy, but they do enough that we can still be factually accurate about it.

Using DDG as my search engine, the first five articles all say the ship was lost as the main headline.
It hurts itself in its confusion.
Please don’t forget NY we want In too.
But when government has social programs it’s socialism. It’s in the name!
I don’t think this needs a /s, but the world doesn’t fucking make any sense.
I always have to recommend Vampire: The Masquerade, Bloodlines. Cheesy AF game from the early 'aughts, but it holds a special place in my heart and is a fantastic RPG. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAIR9faz9pM
At least get the people in the quote right.
I would argue that’s an issue of perspective, were I to post things that are hypercritical of western propaganda on world, I would be and have been banned there too. Managing propaganda is not the same thing as the claims made above.
Nowhere in that link was there claims that only the state has a monopoly on violence.
Edit: And I have absolutely been critical of Russia on their communities. As for the China critiques, I imagine they’re tired of the same western propaganda ad nauseum
I have not experienced that. But I agree with your position otherwise
The lemmy.ml in my name for a reason. My realization moment was while I was in the military ironically enough.
We seem to be doing a fine job of “othering” each other right now.
I tell my boys I love them. Kisses on the forehead before we part too.
Modern Russia is an imperialist shit hole. There you got a straight answer.
That’s the rub,
You think government is inherently bad. I think they, and us by reflection are a product of their material conditions. Governments are a reflection of a people’s relationship with material. IE - America says “Greed is Good” Ergo we get the corporate profits over people shitfest we have now. The first step towards breaking that hold is education and organization at a community level. So that is where I focus.
I could get into a big lecture/discussion about Dialectical Materialism, the conditions requiring a vanguard, how that vanguard should be defined ect. ect. ect, how we as a people work to stop capitalist vampirism and “corporatism” (capitalism in a trench coat) - but I don’t think that would help.
Alternatively, I could pull the typical Tankie “Read theory” at this point (and I do think that is what is needed for us to continue this conversation, but I admit it’s a copout that doesn’t really give you a good starting point. Really though the first 2 pages of the manifesto would give you the gist of what I’m trying to say here.)
So, where do we go from here? - If you have a suggestion, I would be happy to talk more.
Sure if you can’t define fascism
