something intrusive is always entering the Kennedy brain. Bullets. Worms. Lobotomy drills. Strange thoughts about cannibalism.
Tarn Adams of Dwarf Fortress fame made a wonderful little game about lib adventurism called Liberal Crime Squad. It's like if you ported the energy of the 1800s Russian Narodniks onto the early 2000s Bush era liberal
Politics is not historical or materialist. it is a set of coordinates in an abstract space of n-dimensions. I will ask everyone to fill out their apology form to idealism
let him cookJoe Biden is a geriatric puppet who lives in a swamp
yeah checks out
Interesting. What is the case for Arce sucking, from your perspective?
They voted to expel Arce like last year didn’t they?
Yeah I updated the main post with the reply, which I read after making the thread. That's interesting. I wasn't familiar with all these issues inside of MAS
they don't know the difference and don't care to know

!live-tucker-reaction what is happening?
The response to this tweet:
>Evo Morales is already declared as the presidential candidate of the Movement Towards Socialism (MAS-IPSP) at their party congress in Cochabamba a few months ago. The congress has also voted to expel President Luis Arce.
Is this true?
the revolving backdoorLibs were the real authoritarian tankies all along. Ask any country the US has invaded since WW2.
The Ukrainian one is infuriating. OOOOOOOOOOH THEY HAD A SINGLE JEWISH PRESIDENT ONCE THEREFORE NO NAZIS. yeah I'm sure that argument works for white supremacy in the US under Obama. let me get out my amnesia ray gun and forget all about Poroshenko granting nazi collaborators like Stepan Bandera "hero" status and integrating nazi gangs and militias into the military in the 5 years of civil war leading up to Zelensky getting elected, with a majority of Zelensky's votes coming from the Russian speaking separatist regions that were getting bombed.
It would be sick if we actually judged Capitalism as a mode of production by the Late Victorian genocides committed by England, Belgium, and other Capitalist/Colonialist powers, but we know that will never happen.
Really good point; I'll start putting it that way as well when I actually get that far into it (I usually don't)
yes and I wouldn't really say nazi germany was a "choice" for an ally, or even an "ally," the soviets were, again, stalling, buying time, and pretty much knew germany was eventually going to invade them, since hitler had spent the previous 19 years screeching into microphones about "judeobolshevism" and "the slavic untermensch" and the need for "lebensraum"

[Isn't it odd that Lindsey Graham went to Ukraine 2 years into their civil war, which started after a coup which put Poroshenko into power, in order to push the case for war with Russia? And that he was accompanied on that trip by !klobuchar and !meghan's dad?](https://leftypol.org/edu/src/1718099009761.mp4)

>When Jeff Peticolas was a boy, he wondered how his dad could stomach owning Japanese cameras. Sam Peticolas had survived Pearl Harbor. He'd flown 52 missions against Imperial Japan. He'd nearly drowned after crashing a B-17 into the Pacific and received two Purple Hearts. What was he doing using products like Nikon that were made by his former enemy? Jeez, those are the guys who were shootin' at you, Peticolas thought, and here you are buying their stuff.
>Now 66, Peticolas is tall and sturdy for his age, with gray hair, a gray mustache, and deep-set wrinkles. He feels guilty about having never served. The draft ended two years before he was eligible, not that he particularly wanted to go fight in Vietnam. Instead, Peticolas trained to become an auto mechanic at Ferris State University, where his father taught, in Mecosta County, Michigan, in and around which he has always lived.
>But in September 2022, when the county announced that an electric-vehicle-parts manufacturer was coming to town, Peticolas decided it was time to serve his country. The company, Gotion, is the American subsidiary of the world's second-largest EV-battery maker, a Chinese conglomerate called Gotion High-Tech. The $2.4 billion battery plant promised to bring nearly 2,500 jobs to Michigan's fifth-poorest county. But as Peticolas saw it, not only was America's most powerful adversary setting up shop in his hometown, but local officials in Green Charter Township had committed something close to treason by inviting the enemy in. This was nothing short of a communist invasion, in his eyes, and the patriots of Green Charter needed to rise up and confront the Red Peril.
>"Yes, I have Chinese stuff in my house all over the place," Peticolas says. "But it's way better that they build it in China and sell it here than to build it here and be here. It's called embedding with the enemy. It's an age-old military tactic."
!he-laughed beyond fucking parody
>Peticolas and his neighbors formed a rebel coalition, christening themselves the "No-Gos." They began to see conspiracies around every corner. How long had this Chinese project been in the works? Who among the town's leaders was on Beijing's payroll? In rowdy droves, the No-Gos started attending town-hall meetings in search of answers. They unleashed a barrage of Freedom of Information Act requests, sifting through the emails of Green Charter's township board for signs of "corruption" and other shady dealings with the Chinese.
>To them, the Gotion project was a Trojan horse en route with communist spies. Some even speculated that Chinese missiles might be concealed in the factory's water tanks.
!xigma-male are the chinese missiles in the room with you, right now?
