God, I fucking hate it when people refer to liberal ghouls as Communists. Fuck no, the Commies in the room hate her too. Read any history, don't fucking sleepwalk through life and go to brunch. The Imperial Core is fucked beyond belief.
The overton window is pushed so far right in the imperial fascist core that someone who wants to drop 5 less bombs on gaza is a diehard communist.
Bold assumption that she wants to drop fewer bombs
Reactionaries have literally assassinated/tried to assassinate elected officials and their families because they thought they were commie spies lmao.
Pelosi is such a fucking coward. Someone tried to kill your spouse on behalf of your political opponent and your response was to maintain decorum? Anyone with a spine would have gone scorched earth if that happened to them. If someone made a swipe at Melania Trump, Teflon Don would have personally carried out that person's execution (even if he doesn't actually give a shit about her and they're only together because divorce is too expensive).
If the past 8 years have proven nothing else, it's that the only thing Democrats consider sacred is decorum
Biden can lurch around spewing bullshit about how Putin wants to reestablish the Soviet Union and not get laughed out of the room, it's dire
We hate Putin's ass too! Critical Support for Russia's role in anti-Imperialism doesn't mean RF good, their decay from their Soviet roots is a tragedy for Mankind. It's stupid.
the melt-brained old people who still think that Russia is communist, more than THREE DECADES AFTER the illegal dissolution of the Soviet Union, those people send me into a rage. like, you spent a decade celebrating the end of history how can you not remember this?!?
Communism = anything scary, but is undefinable.
My mom is this way. She thinks Putin and Russia are still communist.
It's so frustrating because Putin was OUR guy. We put him there to act as a United States puppet. IIRC Gary Kasparov had more popularity than Putin back in the mid 90s. But since Kasparov believed in the communist party, he didn't get any support from the west. Despite (you know) being a total fucking lib. Fast forward to today and you have NATO falling over themselves for Navalny.
And I don't even remember the Berlin wall coming down, despite being alive for it (I was just a toddler). How these fucking boomers that were like 40 at the time don't remember anything is concerning.
Throwback to when Russia first invaded and my friend's dad said something about "Soviet tanks" and I reflectively said "I fucking wish they were Soviet tanks" and got a weird look from the two of them
In fairness to the brainworms I imagine a lot of the tanks and weapons being used on both sides were from the soviet era.
Itβs particularly funny when liberals get mad at communists for this mislabel. They say fascism was a reaction to communism, which it partially is, but refuse to acknowledge what communism was a reaction to and fixing those issues in the first place.
That's too much credit to libs, they believe fascism is an idea and sprouts when people get bad ideas
They literally don't know what communism is other than "it's bad and a dictator kills 100 gorillion people".
"Communism is when you elect a cop to become the ruler." -Lenin, State and Revolution
jk, he wrote about abolishing the police lol.
It's when the government does stuff
