I was there for it with Iraq in the early 00s. The worst isn't the ones who memory hole it but the ones who will wait until the narrative has definitely turned and there's no risk of being on The Wrong Side

Then they'll come out and assure you that they always thought that way, that they were always saying it was wrong to engage in the war and that peace was the way to go. They'll try to gaslight everyone, themselves most of all

before letting you out via the gift store full of DDR nostalgia to buy

Holy shit you're not kidding

I went to check their online shop and it is entirely the kind of merch you'd expect to see in a pro socialist shop: plenty of Hero of Labour merch, Marx and Lenin stuff, a faux DDR passport notebook, that kinda stuff. There's a few things that border on either being actual anticommunism or possibly parody (like a sign saying "No Goods Today" in German), but none of it looks like it's meant to be ironic

Adding on as I look at more things: they sell a magnet celebrating the formation of the DDR (Republic Day, October 7th). I'm with you, there's no way this place isn't run by socialists

The Irving family is an incredibly rich family that essentially runs New Brunswick as a personal medieval fiefdom. Every gas station and most of the province is owned and operated by them

Coincidentally, there's a mysterious degenerative brain disease found only in New Brunswick, but there's been a distinct lack of funding for research into it. These two statements are unrelated

It's so powerful it broke out of the libs in America to infect everywhere else. The brewing Canadian election now has the Liberals accusing the Conservatives of being paid by Russian disinformation. The Cons are sketchy as fuck and not helping their own case either but now we also have the same "Everything I don't like is Russia" shit

English signs itself isn't always sus

It is 100% sus when the country isn't English. It implies the signs are there to beg for American support, not for support within their own borders (or from neighbours and allies)

It did though

Every fucking liberal still believes, to their core, in the existence of a vast warehouse full of Russian agents posting anti-Democrat agitprop in support of Trump. Everything negative in the West is now a Russian psyop according to liberals: independence movements, pro-Palestinian movements, any form of fascism is funded by Russia, etc

There was never any proof posted and yet this fucking idea scrawled onto the back of some Langley lanyard's napkin at lunch became the guiding principle by which all liberals have spent the last 8 years living

It's like how liberals will constantly use homosexuality as the punchline for jokes

If you point out that the thing they're using as an insult (body weight/type, sexuality, criminal record) is not something they should use as an insult, they'll get absolutely offended and assure you they're not actually homophobic or whatnot, they just say it because it annoys the target of their insults - which is usually some high ranking politician who will never be in the same postal code as these ghouls, let alone hear the insult

Watching some people I know have live meltdowns as they were confronted with the reality of this living corpse as their nominee has been fucking hilarious

Watching them consider if RFK should take over was even funnier

History begins in the winter of 2022 of course

[-] TechnoUnionTypeBeat@hexbear.net 70 points 5 months ago

History began on October 7th 2023, absolutely nothing happened before that day

Shut the fuck up

You have to admit though, the new style of men's pants not showing their fucking hog bulge isn't very flattering

Didn't he once yell at someone and call them fat for daring to question his Union stance?
