Venezuela is being color revoluitioned again. Fucking christ.

Wahhhhhhhhhh

I literally don’t think you can galvanize his base any further. They are already sycophants and zealots.

Pragmatism, feels dirty sometimes but keeps you on track for longer towards bigger goals.

I’m back, been like 2 months at least, what did I miss here in lemmy land?

Europeans returning to Europe after they realize they don’t like the desert.

As a non-USian with USian friends, who are both leftists and not, it’s interesting talking to them about the election, my leftist friend is voting for Biden because they are trans and project 2025 is scaring them pretty heavily. My other two friends, one is voting for Biden because “he’s not Trump” and the other is voting for Kennedy because “fuck it, it seems funny”. It’s weird. The election is bringing a lot of weird feelings and emotions out in the states.

If I cheated everytime I worked with someone I find attractive I would have cheated dozens of times. Cheating isn’t something you have to do, just… Don’t do it. Also as others have said, start working in yourself, positive directions, self improvement…if you need to chat, message me.

I mean, from an UAWs perspective, Biden has gone above and beyond most US president’s. Bidens a piece of shit but he stood on the picket with UAW…For USian labor that is massive.

Wanted to check in with my USian friends, one told me he was paying 950 before the pandemic, is 1400 go up to 1500 in a few months. I sent him my condolences.

My brother in christ, please use paragraph breaks. 😱

I lived there for two years for work. I took a class at a local university to learn something I needed and there was a military recruiter at a table in the front building entry way every day. I told him my cousin is in the PLA and they probably wouldnt want me. He stopped try to talk to me going forward.

I think communists should avoid orthodoxy and weird gate keeping. If you fight for what I believe, support liberation, advocate for a just and equitable society where the proles run shit and we push towards truly egalitarian society free of suffering, you are my friend and likely my ally regardless of what you believe or don’t believe about God or gods.

Also, contradictions are inherent in all things, having a materialist view on the world while believing deeply in my diety is something I struggle with from time to time, but in the end, the contradictions don’t stop me from being a Marxist, and for advocating and fighting for the world we all want, so it doesn’t really matter I think.

Israel dropped a new website full of graphic images supposedly done by the Palestinians. So that’s fun.

My great grandfather was a literal feudal serf… 70 years ago… It’s gonna take time on that sadly. I think this current generation is the first to be truly “modern” (whatever that means.)

Decline is inevitable if history is considered proof, however history demonstrates the death of empires takes many generations, in some cases, hundreds of years. So, while it may be declining, it doesn’t mean it’s going to be gone in five years, it will likely take decades.

My knowledge on the star in Vietnam at least is each point represents a group of people: proletariat, peasantry, military, intellectuals, and petty bourgeoisie.

Making it easier and cheaper to visit China for a short trip is a good idea all around, I have friends from Germany that I am gonna have go with me on a trip because of this for a week to dip their toes and prove to them it’s not a hellscape like the msm says it is.
