So theyre letting people keep donating to the woman who called a child the n slur, but taking this down? Disgusting
My submission is maybe the most obvious, Soviet flag over the Reichstag
It can be anything, photograph, painting, meme, screenshot of CCTV footage of a CEO getting domed in the street, etc
Trump elected in landslide victory
Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire (immediately violated by Israel)
French government collapse
South Korean martial law (just a joke though)
CEO shot in the street
Romanian election results overturned
Colour revolution attempt in Georgia
Assad runs for his life
Isreali invasion of Syria
This is all in just over a month
At this rate I fully expect a Year of Four Presidents in America
The last few weeks sure feel like decades. South Korean martial law, ceasefire with Hezbollah (for now), retreat of SAA, massive defeat for the democrats... big things are happening. Nobody can say that nothing ever happens anymore. Things are now happening
My friends and I are all in our early 20s, most finishing/ out of college. A few years ago they were all liberals who either turned their nose up at the word socialism or were "apolitical".
Now, having been through a pandemic, living through a housing crisis, working in minimum wage jobs, witnessing the rise of European fascism and seeing the sheer disrespect capitalists have for us, all of them, without exception, have become or are becoming leftists. I don't even talk about politics that much with them, although they know I'm a communist. They have all voiced dissatisfaction with capitalism and named capitalism directly as the cause of their problems. Some of them openly call themselves socialist. None of them have any faith in liberals.
My main political issue now is to get them to become active in politics. I've encouraged them to join workers and tenants unions and will do that more every time I'm drunk. I try to get them to pro-Palestinian protests. I have high hopes that within a few years, I will successfully convert most of them to communism
it is never joever for the working class
The first few days of COVID lockdowns, when it was only supposed to be for two weeks, is such an interesting time to look back at. No one in the world knew what was going to happen next
Israel launches strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen
"Our message is clear - for us, no place is too far," - Defence Minister Yoav Gallant
They are 1000000% trying to start an all-out regional war and get the US involved. Iran will be next unless there is retaliation
Ukraine - or rather, the Ukranian people - have already lost the war against Russia by basically every important metric. They have lost tens of thousands of soldiers, millions have emigrated, their domestic assets have been completely sold to and looted by American capitalists, and they are still likely to lose militarily. Ukraine will not recover for decades. But Zelensky and his ilk keep getting richer by selling off the country and the lives of the people to the American war machine, and the American capitalists keep getting richer by having a massive demand for their weapons and gathering information about the Russian military. Just fucking end the war, please.
Ireland's military is pathetically weak and underfunded. Ireland does need a proper military, but not because of Russia. So often I see redditors shrieking about how Russia could invade Ireland at any moment if they wanted to - like they think Russia is an existential enemy of Ireland.
Ireland needs a functioning military because there is a foreign imperialist country occupying the north of our country, and is the only actual threat to our national security. The UK is the only country which has invaded Ireland in the past 1000 years, and has done a very good job of oppressing and colonising, and now liberal dipshits think we should join NATO and team up with the British because of fucking Russia.
I work in a small bar. Nobody at all has come in yet. It is absolutely lashing it down. I can hear the rain pounding on the roof and the occasional clap of thunder.
I am inside and warm and this is easily the best day of work ever. I love storms so much
Oh awesome! They finally made an app for guys who join the DSA to pick up girls
The effort to bring her into the pantheon of neoliberal heroes was crazy. They had her speak at the UN and meet with so many politicians, and so clearly tried to get her on their side. But she actually has values, so she couldn't become another prop for them. Fucking based.
What fucking world are we living in when Vaush is one of the Americans with the best take on Palestine
There will be no mental gymnastics because liberals simply won't acknowledge this
one thousand comments on a non-megathread post
