Just got banned from reddit for posting this comment under a pic of a PFLP fighter
Unimaginably based
this is one of the most hardest quote i seen on the internet
As a lib I have decided that racism against our common enemy is okay and will therefore depict your leader as a coincidentally yellow skinned tv character
If you criticize me for it I will call you a bot or a paid shill because nobody outside the Western sphere of influence is capable of having their own world view
This week, we commemorate the ruthless murder of anywhere between zero and twenty-five hundred thousand students by the Communism China Party in 1989. In China, you are not allowed to talk about the June 4th incident and anybody in China who disputes this is lying and brainwashed. China owns 60% of this platform and will delete this comment but the world has to know. Please support me on Patreon at patreon.com/eggmonopoly

Some property gets damaged during pro Palestine protests
Libs: YOU HAVE LOST ALL MY SYMPATHY THIS IS LITERALLY WORSE THAN GENOCIDE
MLK quote on the white moderate always relevant "i support your cause but cannot agree with your methods!"
A friend of mine who called themself anticapitalist, said that they wanted to join the student protests but didn't and felt guilty about it. On the other hand, they said that they don't like the use of ACAB at the protests and that cops are just doing their job. But I think that they're a baby leftist and have a lot to unlearn
Gotta start somewhere. Calling themselves anticapitalist is a baby step indicating the potential and desire for class consciousness.
I have several complaints about it, but the documentary "Power" that's on Netflix now could be a good place to start the conversation. Does a good job of breaking down myths about policing and the history of cops in the US. Drops the ball at the end, but that's a great place for you to pick it up with a conversation.
Belgian socdems the second a Marxist party overtakes them in popularity: yes we would much rather govern with right wing neoliberals!
And because they have no decent counter arguments whatsoever they pulled out to old 'BUT THE UYGHURS????' trick. Suddenly we, a party that is present at every Palestinians, Congolese, Sudanese, whatever protest is against human rights, while they, parties that are currently in the government that is still supporting Israel, are the beacon of human progress.
Soc dems the second they are threatened by anyone to the left of them.
This is the second time now that somebody has directly accused me of ‘antisemitism’. I am guessing that the offending remark was ‘I know that it has always been perfectly natural for Jewish people to consciously and unconsciously borrow from the cultures surrounding them’, but I would be very surprised if any Jewish historians disagreed with that statement.
Still, I guess that I should have omitted ‘Jewish’ when I said ‘Jewish people’, because it almost sounded like I was calling it a uniquely Jewish trait, when really it applies to humans in general when different cultures surround them. Irish people do it. Chinese people do it. West Africans do it. Everybody does it when they’ve been living in a ‘foreign’ land for a while, not only Jews. I didn’t think that clarification would have been necessary since the community has known me for a while and it would have been most unlikely that I meant ‘nobody does this other than the Jews’.
I would have approached a moderator about the removal—I can see how my comment was a tad insensitive—but it would have been too troublesome to be worth the effort.
Pretty much all of nature is this. Creatures in a position at rest. But when I do it, I’m “lazy”. Lazy is natural. Energy is expensive!

I feel healed.
I'm currently engaged in a China Bad™ debate and instead putting in too much effort I decided to just say: 'source?' at their bold claims. Turns out it is hard to find actual evidence if your world view is fabricated by the West's propaganda machine.
I actually just got done with some western leftists on the western pacific/China situation. I thought we had mutual respect between us but then they tried to call me white when they knew I'm not and they knew I was from one of those areas. And called me unhinged/deranged. So being deprived of my humanity was cool. I should have just done what you did and ask for sources.
fuckin hell mate I don't think I've ever been mad about an online confrontation like this. sorry I needed the vent. the steam is coming out my ears, nose, and cuticles. It's just actually physically tiring.
Almost done with reading blackshirts and reds, what an amazing book; the ethnic cleansing of Palestine by Ilan Pappe is also amazing.
Been back in Europe due to some heavy family shit.
Every day I meet people who make fun of the far right and Trump, all while voicing opinions such as: "Israel should do to the Palestinians what the USians did to the Native Americans".
All of these people would join the fascists as soon they are no longer seen as the underdogs.
Happy Pride Month y'all, just don't visit any social media at all today!
That's a cube
technically it's a projection of a cube 🤓
I'm in Indonesia for a bit. Got to ride the HSR built by China between Jakarta and Bandung. Hot dog! It was awesome.
It's usually a two hour car ride, but the train made it in 30 minutes. Top speed of 350 km/h. And even at that speed it felt much smoother than American trains going only 100 km/h.
Last day before the elections. Our team went out today at local events to gather votes. We managed to convince around 500 people to vote for us tomorrow. Throughout our total campaign we managed to convince something like 5000 people. That's just one group in one specific city.
They hit the fucking pentagon 😭
Dutch commie YouTuber Left Laser did the 'China bad' thing in his most recent vid today. Shame as I actually thought he was okay and not an ultra.
I hate it when this happens. And it seems to happen a lot.
I think he's a Maoist. Think he mentioned that before
Most logical thing to do in a country as advanced as The Netherlands of course
The combined effect of Pride Month, June 4th and June 6th makes liberals so fucking exhausting this time of year.
Dutch media all of a sudden started calling the far right 'radical right' in what can only be explained as sanitizing right wing extremism
In a morbid, fucked up way I am curious to see what happens when white Europeans will soon be on the receiving end of the fascism stick.
So the changing climate is causing more rain to fall over here. Due to increased rain fall and humidity, more people now suffer from URTI (myself included at the moment, yay). I think diseases is one of the most ignored things about climate change.
Also, we will face a mosquitoe plague this summer because of all the wetness.
Got rejected from another job despite everything going really well with an initial phone interview.
I did horribly on the video interview and I despise that corporations can’t even give you the time of day for a 15 minute in-person interview to save money. I just can’t talk to a lifeless computer, and there’s nothing I do worse at. Doesn’t matter what my resume looks like, or how well I can speak, I can’t talk to a fucking computer.
I don’t get how anyone else has a decent job. There’s nothing in a 50km radius available in the shithole where I am, and I can’t move. I just want to give up. Well guess there’s always the minimum wage shithole gas station.
At this point I think that breathing in chlorine gas would be less of a nuisance than the seasonal allergies I'm currently dealing with
The party I voted for (SP, demsoc) probably won't make it into EU parliament, but apparently they are close to a seat, so I'm still hopeful. We'll see on sunday
This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
