Nationalgoatism

Why do You tankies always ignore the terrible things the Vietnamese Communist forces did with American prisoners of war? While there are many to choose from, I think the worst was releasing John McCain alive. Truly a crime against humanity

It's a terrible attempt at sushi bc I made it while already fairly plastered, but it consists of rice, pickled onions, radishes and canned tuna. I accidentally poured soy sauce in my wine glass. My dog is looking at me like I'm an utter lunatic. I am probably, I am probably going to bed soon. Just wanted to say that I despise the kinds of mother fuckers who pretend to be woke, wrt colonialism but purely advocate symbolic or minor changes, never looking at the material changes. No amount of nomenclature changes will stop deeply rooted economic subjugation. Liberalism is a hell of a drug. Death to America.

The tuna is my first non vegan meal in about 2 weeks. I am not there yet, but I am happy to be making progress

Conversation went somewhat as follows Me: I hate pretty much all the current pickup trucks bc they are excessively large, too high and thus dangerous to pedestrians, and sacrifice too much bed space. I'll keep using my '89 Nissan with an odometer that stopped working, a rusting bed and mismatched doors as my utility/work vehicle until hell freezes over.

Bossman: so if you got a brand new ram 2500 for free you wouldn't drive that instead of your old brokeboy-mobile?

Me: imo they are over priced as shit, and a depreciating asset, so I'd just sell it immediately. That's what, 60k?

Another coworker: he's right. 25k for power tools, car parts and firearms, 15k for whiskey, hookers and LSD, donate the rest to Indian maoist guerillas

Me, unable to hold in laughter: shut the fuckk up man (thinking, why the hell would you say that in front of the boss man, but except for the buying sex (being a John seems kinda messed up) that is basically what I would want to spend it on lol)

Just reposting this excellent point from lemmygrad

Body

he hated Nazism, but he was drafted and those who refused the draft were sent to concentration camps. Thus he had no choice but to go to the front against the soviets, where he sabatoged his platoons machine gun Then surrendered without resistance.

This is a True story according to his diary.

"During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it."
