Israel thought they could pull that type of shit in China, cute.

I think the US is just screwed. They burned through their natural resources and minerals early and are now paying the price for the reckless laissez faire hyper industrialization that speed rushed the US into peaking in the 1950s. Now the US is a dry desolate wasteland (literally, Lake Mead is at it's lowest historical level ever at this moment). Hyper capitalism is basically the economic equivalent of taking performance enhancing drugs to get ahead.

The word "our" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

My great great grandfather had his farm collectivized in the early USSR and was salty about it. When I visited a relative and looked at the old family album there was a photo of orthodox priests doing the Nazi salute, what that was doing in there I can only guess. My grandfather at least from what I know was more neutral about the USSR and traveled there to meet relatives.

I think the US is calling the base withdrawal a "punishment" to save public face when really it's probably Spain kicking out them. Similar to how Trump made big talk about bringing Iran to the stone age to make it look like Iran surrendered when it was the other way around to anyone with actually the ability to read.

Nooooo do imperialism on them not us lets sit down and carve up maps together daddy Trump nooooo whyyy 😭😭😭

Truly no other choice. Can't let Russia win in Ukraine or else Russia is then going to sail their entire army through the North Sea to conquer Britain next. Call of Duty plots have taught me as much.

It's almost like being communist means being left wing or something.

I've seen people defend capitalism unironically by arguing that you can just go run off in the woods if you don't like it, as if every square inch of land isn't privately owned.

Imagine the US pushing Europe into war with Russia and then at the last second is like nah, you got this, keep buying our overpriced hardware and you'll be fine.

Nazis: Marxism is bad because it's jewish.

Liberals: Marxism is bad because it hates jews.

Marxists: Bruh.

Perhaps so, but now Russia no longer has McDonald's or Pizza Hut.
