It wasn't directly in Damascus but in the outskirts, according to some sources 2 Irani soldier have been killed during the attack.

Wtf you talking about?

Usually when you go the "I'm a fervent Stalinist" route most people will stay away, if that's what you want. Otherwise, what I tend to do is explain why that particular perspective is wrong, without mentioning specific ideologies. "Liberal democracy is flawed because you are choosing between a shit in your mouth or a piss in your ear, they are two and the same; the same shit, different smell. It's the illusion of choice, but in reality both groups represent the people behind. What we need is one party where specific members are removed, and where that party represents the people." For example, I didn't say, hell yeah, I love North Korea, but I explained the flaws.

Nah, youre fine. Simply that people think the status quo isnt politic so whatever defies their view as reality is suddenly politics, specially if you live in the US you should be someone who cares about the whole imperialist situation because otherwise you are at the minimum being an accomplice by ignorance and at worst in opposition to defend your priviledges. They are the ones in the cult of capital.

It would help if it showed total territory gained but I guess that shows too much truth. Keep in mind Russia will start an offensive soon which will probably be very definite and up the ante some more.

drops the mic

I agree, although I would also argue that in the specific case of the US, the situation is a bit more drastic since in most (specially oppressed countries) the liberals/moderate fascists/national bourgeoisie have a somewhat "revolutionary" role since they generally oppose the international bourgeoisie and do win some concessions for the working class, as you mention, or help with industrialisation and so on. In the case of the US, though, both parties represent the international bourgeoisie, and the international political agenda of both countries is essentially the same, interventionism, imperialism, economic blockades, and so on, so the difference is radically different in that the number of concessions the liberals/moderate fascists can give the working class, specially the working class of oppressed countries, is much smaller than in other places. I too critically support the left wing liberals in my country because the option is total deindustrialisation and selling everything to the lowest bidder otherwise, so I totally get your point but wanted to make a small distinction.

By the way, I don't know if you've heard of Hexbear, they're a pan-leftists instance who will be federating with us and a couple of other instances by the end of the month luckily, they have a pretty active anarchist community so you might have a better time there than on a general purpose liberal instance.

I wonder what do Gringos consider a genocide, because if we go by number of enemy casualties in war the US has the record Guinness.

That dude is a piece of shit, he also joined the Matrix room for the false Lemmygrad. Probably a CIA shill or some shit.

Honestly someone should communicate with the admins of where he posted and explain the situation, maybe they'll ban that bastard from the face of earth for spreading misinformation.

I smell liberal brainrot.

b-b-b-but the offensive!

As far as I know he's responsible for a Belorussian transition to capitalism where a lot of the practices of the Soviet times where kept in place, it went through a process of liberalisation much like China did post-Deng, only that in a scenario where there is a lack of a strong communist party (maybe for the best, though, since it would likely be coup'd either by the US or Gorbachev's Russia). He has done what he could to maintain the national bourgeois in check and also able to remain in the anti-imperialist block.
