It’s really interesting to read another society’s propaganda, and clarifies how much we are affected by western propaganda we’ve been subjected to our whole lives.

Protection racket

And if you don’t create a pretext, they’ll shoot you anyway

Maybe it’s you and me - we are supposed to check then balance

Somebody doesn’t know how to work the auto pen

I want that in the US!

How about taxing owners of unoccupied homes?

Fair enough. Even the least fascist, among fascists, is still fascist.

Colonialism coming back to the home country.

Could someone explain how the color is done in a woodblock print like this?

IDF kompromat on Fetterman, could explain a lot.

How about Dwight D. Eisenhower? Didn’t own slaves, kinda conservative, fucked up Nazis real bad, tried to warn Americans about the Military-Industrial complex.

Couldn’t be!

Black people finally got control of South Africa.

They didn’t slaughter all the apartheid whites, which seemed very gracious at the time, but that’s why we still have to deal with Elon Musk now.

Tesla saw its total volume drop from roughly 326,000 units in 2024 to just over 235,000 in 2025. That is a staggering 27.8% year-over-year decline.

I feel seen

In the Vietnam war, fragging the officers had a big impact.

Building community feels hard. I think we are all waiting for someone else to get it started.

I think he misunderstands where he fit into this scenario.

Putin will probably take the US crime in Venezuela as permission to escalate and kill Zelensky, regardless of how many Ukrainian people are also murdered in the process.

I suspect China also feels a sense of freedom to go get Taiwan.

There is a brutal man with a gun, controlling and threatening a group of good citizens with consciences. He’s going to do terrible things to them, and make them do terrible things themselves.

They have him outnumbered, but he has the gun. If they rush him, they can easily defeat him. But, the first one or two or three or four people to move forward will be shot and probably die painfully. Going first is going to cost a terrible price and you don’t know for sure that anyone else will follow you, that your sacrifice will be for anything at all.

You feel a little paralyzed and at the same time ashamed you are just standing there.

What happens next?
