I liked it. I haven’t seen it since becoming full blown communist. But I loved that it didn’t shirk at all about showing the US as the blood sucking empire that it is. You have mindless murder for the sake of it. Needless cruelty. And a principled communist woman who would rather die than be a part of it.

I just wasted about a half hour of my time skimming through it. I remember upon first hearing about Russiagate that an infant could tell it was nonsense. Vague claims of hacking something or other, and being upset at Russia for exposing dirt on Hillary. The whole thing seemed manufactured.

This report seems just as manufactured and infuriatingly vague. It could be that it’s too hard to refute such vague claims, or it could just be a whole lot of finger pointing (I’m leaning towards that one). Regardless, it’s really not worth wasting my time thinking about it.

I am going to get the popcorn out to watch the US president cage match though. I doubt much of anything will come of it, but it’s sure to be entertaining, and I like seeing the capitalist class doing some infighting.

I actually thought that was a bit of an overreaction, but I still appreciated the sentiment.

I wasn’t able to find what brought that on in the modlog, and his whole posting history was deleted(!). I was really curious about what he said, and after having found and read it… wow. Thank you.

I haven’t played it yet, but in a similar vein, Squad 22: ZOV is a recent Russian game that depicts the Ukraine war. The American response was also quite predictable. Although it is heartening to see a number of steam reviewers calling them out for review bombing it.

Immigration opponents say the crackdown will translate into more and better-paying jobs for native-born Americans.

As a native born of Turtle Island, I would like to wish all these native-born Americans a nice big “Fuck you.”

Odd. It works fine for me on Android and Desktop Linux Firefox. Perhaps Apple specific?

On the Ukraine front, Russia is definitely still winning. You can check the maps yourself for the high level. I’m not sure where these 10s of miles are that they advancing, but I don’t see it on a map of Ukraine.

On the lower level, the Ukrainian armed forces appears to just barely be holding on. Most of their true believers are dead, and they are increasingly relying on people that they kidnapped. They are taking massive disproportionate casualties, and as we can clearly observe from NATO panic, Russia is winning in the materiel war as well. This is a war of attrition, and Russia is decisively winning. Hell, even the messaging from on high has changed from saying that Ukraine is winning to Ukraine can still win if NATO just sanctions a bit more and sends more guns. This is also not working, and NATO knows that they cannot keep up with even their existing pace forever.

I’m honestly not sure that there is a plan. It’s just racism with a side of exceptionalism. The idea is that the great and powerful US military can bomb anyone they want with impunity, so long as they aren’t a nuclear power. And with the meerest hint of possibility that Iran might become a nuclear power soon, it’s a good time to go bombing again. They’ve been talking for years about how much they wanted to.

Is this how the Israelis feel? Tense?

I work with one. She whined about being afraid to the whole company.

It’s only been a couple of weeks since the anniversary of the start of the white terror, which killed tens of thousands of Chinese dissidents. I must have missed the news remembering that.

Chinese Spy submarine.

How is it any different from saying “Americans” do such and such when their representatives say awful things? We know that there are American comrades, and we know that there are likely a great number more comrades in Ukraine. I really don’t think the post was meant to disparage all Ukrainians. Just the ones that support what their representatives are saying.

That’s not even a lemmygrad user. Regardless, I think the point is that the people in power are Nazis. Not the general populace. Ukraine is tearing down victory monuments for Christ’s sakes. When Georgia starts doing that, I’ll definitely be sympathetic to calling their government Nazis.

See my edit. But here’s the thing. We have video of the moon landing and rocks from the actual moon. That’s solid evidence. We have plenty of evidence of the atom existing, because half our tech wouldn’t work if they didn’t exist.

Where is the evidence of a massacre at tiananmen square? Please read the links I gave you.

Edit: please remember, you said that this was an easily disprovable conspiracy theory.

To deny the events that unfolded at Tiananmen Square is like denying that humans have been to the moon. It’s an unfounded, in fact, disprovable conspiracy theory.

So prove it to us then. All you’re doing right now is scolding us for being insane conspiracy theorists. I’ve never seen any evidence that anything happened at tiananmen square. Reports from people who were actually there all say that there was no massacre

The US has a very long history of lying about its enemies. There are plenty of declassified CIA docs that talk about what lies to tell the media. Why is this one different?

Edit: also, see pen names. Isn’t it a little hypocritical to call us conspiracy theorists when you come to the conclusion that the book was lies written by China or North Korea because you can’t find any information about the author?
