I don’t get what the comic means. Like even if it says something like USA was created on top of a revolution, it means nothing, like 200 and some years after it might as well need some other revolution, so why the hell is that even a point, and I could even see someone having a positive attitude towards the American revolution and still seek a communist revolution. So I just don’t get at all what is it coming to.
Tbh if you have a positive attitude towards the Amerikan “revolution” you’re likely a reactionary 🤷🏿♂️ it wasn’t a revolution for the Afrikans and Natives, that’s for sure
Yeah but can be said that inside the, admittedly illegitimate by ocupation of the native lands, society it can be said that breaking free from English rule was some improvement and that there are at least some reasonable parts of the constitution, but yeah its a lot of bad too but there is an dialectical nature to it, same as I think Marx or Stalin if I recall correctly said about the French revolution, it was bad because it was a bourgeois revolution, but ending feudalism was a good movement
Which is trully and utterly nonsensical to the point of me having trouble to see how the hell someone can believe that is coherent thought, its like saying that if you yell something(any thing at all for any reason) someone ask oh you like yelling so why don’t you yell racial slurs like this folk over here
The phrase is a bit older, goes back to King Leonidas stand at the Thermophilae. His answer to a diplomatic surrender, becoming a vassal of persia, supposedly was “Molon labe.” - Come and take it.
The yankee slaveowners saw themselves as greek, boy fucking, slaveowners.
Minor correction. The story goes that the Persian king, Xerxes, asked the Spartans to surrender their arms. Leonidas tells Xerxes to “come and take them”.
what is that flag of?
Flag made during the Texan Revolution.
It’s a cannon with a star above it and the words “Come and Take It” written under it, a phrase first used by American Revolutionary fighters.

“If you want a Revolution, why don’t you support or want to help American fascists rebel and create a fascist slave state like the Confederacy?”

Thanks, that makes more sense.
🤮 about as disagreeable of a revolution as it gets. Only Anglos could come up with the concept of “freedom (to own slaves)”
