The us had nukes and actually showed the willingness to use it - twice. Meanwhile the Soviets were destroyed by war and didn’t have the largest economy in the world to bail them out.
Later under gorbi, the soviets became revisionists and actually thought they could live with the capitalists in peace (lol)
Its a stalling tactic and not giving the west a easy way to justify war. Especially relevant for modern prc.
I remember the “good karen” video where a girl just flipped off a bunch of police officers.
It was truly a time where everyone in america was anti-pig. Imagine if the bernards actually did something with it.
Its much earlier than that. The “Karen took the kids” meme was just when it became mainstream.
People believed that they would just let the new generations grow up without indoctrinating all the isms on them?
Do they think boomers were born racist/sexist?
Wasnt woke first used by black americans to refer to being aware of the race construct? Similar thing happened to Karen, its origin comes from primarily black american women working in customer service jobs and using it to refer to entitled white customers who use the “white woman’s tears/distress/discomfort” as a tool to exort her power?
Libs did it first. Sometimes they use (white) in front of women to make misogynistic comments but palpable to a progressive audience.
Actually Israelis are massively destroying the local ecosphere with their genocide. And its also not very good on the global climate as well.
So yes she actually does act in a very consistent with her OG climate activism. They will just say anything to distract.
They killed enough westerners to get Israel banished into the netherworld ages ago - if we follow western “logic”
But they will try and they will only make them be hated more. Killing the gambo star will make normies hate them even more.
They will speak it into being. As is so often the case. This reminds me of a lore backdrop from Legend of the Galactic Heroes, where old earth basically fell because their propaganda made sirus (an earth colony) look so powerful that all the other earth colonies rose up and joined it, believing they had a chance at winning.
Please go ahead and shoot the widely known celebrities. This will end very badly for you.
Something like this crucial for any organized movement. Including safe houses, methods to go into hiding after a “mission”, ways for comrades to get their families into safety, methods to secure funding without being traced.
Direct action is just a tenth of the actual work.
i’m mostly curious to know how the allies were able to carve “israel” out of palestine, which means i want to know what the conditions were like leading up to that decision.
I cant give book recommendations exactly but it was with the balfour declaration, by former PM Arthur Balfour, Palestine was occupied by australian/british forces at the time after the Battle of Beersheba, in fact the Balfour gave the Zionists a “thumbs up” just two days after the Battle concluded. It was a bloody battle for the turks & germans and they basically left the region to be easily conquered. It came to be a very mythical event, allegedly fulling some bs from the bible. Most palestinians at the time werent too keen on the ottomans, and the Brits at first pretened to care about not upsetting the local population, especially since southern palestine, particularly gaza after the multiple battles there was devastated.
So the Brits had military control over the region and then opened the “floodgates”, with the holocaust the question of Zionism vs civil rights was resolved in the obvious direction and the survivors could easily join in the already existing structures that facilitated the construction of israel. The second world war did not cause the creation of israel, it simply made it inevitable.
Yeah during malayan emergency as well, and the khmer rouge targeted the chinese and vietnamese communities especially due to these tropes.
I know this is a bit of a generalization but the equivalent of historical antisemitism in south & east asia is anti-chinese rhetoric, especially with the whole merchant culture & spreading communism tropes. Not to accuse vietnam of being that way, but other countries in the region have a history with that.
God really wants that bridge to stand.
Doubt much. Its mostly just nationalism due to the chinese control over Vietnam and the recent sino-vietnamese war. Even during soviet times, national conflicts didnt disappear.
Totalitarian is a code word for not manipulatable by the west. If your left-wing country gets called that, you are on the right way.
Well you can blame it on the anglos.
The few occasions where racism stops western imperialism
Well they do now. The fact that people are ever more aware of facts like this is progress from ten years ago.
