In the belly of the beast, prodding around, trying to give it gastrointestinal distress.
Just dug up a few charts and short excerpts that I think are useful. Tried to make the alt text as useful as I could, given the limitations of describing charts in particular.
Even Germans who lived under, and accepted, the Nazi government believed that the US was a monster state. In They Thought They Were Free by Milton Mayer, a retired civil servant recalls how they viewed America as a land of dishonest politicians & gangsterism.
US imperialism is the principal enemy and those who join it in attacking its enemies are helping the American empire whether they want to or not. Also, why the fuck drag Xi Jinping into this when China has a better record on women's rights than the US?
My condolences. I went through that same cycle a few months ago when my beloved Hiss passed away unexpectedly. You inevitably miss seeing them and miss the ways they'd make their presence known.
So did "cartoonshateher" deactivate their account because they were tired of getting ridiculed for writing an article that, quite literally, suggested that children riding on public transit need to choose between avoiding eye contact with people with behavioral health issues or be murdered?
I love when Northern Europeans on Reddit wax poetic about the ubiquitous moral depravity displayed by the US ("western") political elites, only to smugly dismiss the notion that communist revolution is part of the solution in a single, terse sentence that offers no reasoning. Fucking Reddit belt
Every time I program my washing machine thusly, I think about how Zelensky said, "It's cool, it's normal.", concerning the lionization of Stepan Bandera in contemporary Ukraine.
Would that be Chef Paul (Paul Prudhomme)?
There are, in fact, triops, and I only mention this because I think they kick ass.
People occasionally bring up the fact that the CIA is largely comprised of a bunch of self-regarding, upper-middle dweebs with expensive private educations but, my God, they do not bring it up often enough! Look at this gaggle of creatures.
Jacksonian democracy and Manifest Destiny were 19th century fascism. Colonizing Hawaii Puerto Rico and the Philippines was fascism. The Red Scares were fascism. Starting the Cold War was fascism. Neoliberalism is fascism. It's almost all fascism.
This Paul Ingrassia guy is what imagine Pee-Wee Herman would look like if he tried to go 5 whole years without jacking off.
It shows me the opposite when I unblock them lol. I thought this platform's protocols or whatever were coveted, but it's buggy AF SMH.
TIL that George Lincoln Rockwell (founder of American Nazi Party, for those unfamiliar) was turned on to antisemitism by other supporters of the famed General Douglas MacArthur. I'm not that surprised, but it speaks volumes about the US during the Cold War, none of it good.
Fools! Can't you see it's good Pritzker is sending ISP to rough up protesters? It will convince SCOTUS it is unnecessary to deploy the military to Illinois!
Many of them might hold more than one passport but they might not want to return to their home country for...reasons.
Yes, the people who were directly culpable for crimes against the Soviet people and humanity, absolutely. Even Wikipedia shows that the Soviets requisitioning POW labor of technical specialists from defeated Nazi Germany was nothing like Operation Paperclip. They didn't even keep them!
The Union forever! Hurrah, boys, hurrah! Down with the traitors And up with the stars!
Mailing Freedumb Foundation's bullshit back to them with handwritten messages about what I think of them for the umpteenth time.
No, he preferred to use a different slur. He was so ridiculously fascist, I mean, here he is in his own words: (I don't even feel right typing the alt text lol)
A 90% tax on exiting the country, even paid by people they're abducting and forcefully removing from the country? Maybe with an exception if you want to invest in crypto in El Salvador.
