while i love guthrie, that machine only kills fascists if it's shoved up their milled ends.

in addition to my native brazilian portuguese, i'm fluent in english and basic to intermediate level in spanish and french. i can understand and speak roughly some german and russian too (started the courses, but never finished). my objective is to someday learn both german and russian up to intermediate level, and then go for some arabic, mandarin, kongo, nheengatu (an old creole language that mixed tupi-guarani and portuguese) and esperanto.

that's a great testimony.

more or less. my grandparents are already dead, but as far as i remember the last one living of them which i had contact with (my mother's mother) was ok with lgbtq+ people (as far as defending their right to marriage) and quite concerned with the rights of disabled, but was somehow racist towards black and indigenous people, and could not stand demonstrations of social movements (i.e. sit-ins from landless workers and squatters, strikes and the like). my parents go about the same, but my mom is much less racist.

now go check out who's got the best rail services around the world. with the possible exception of japan, who's still got some measure of trouble with some of their private operators, nearly all of the rail operators who are consistently good are state owned.

average global-northern leftist elected politician, unfortunately.

you vote for a clown, you get the government of a clown.

poor latin america who got these elites for starters.

that sounds too adventurous. most of the time it's just red dwarf.

in a sense you did, but some people do sweat too much, beyond what would be reasonable given environmental factors. it's called hyperhidrosis and can be treated, and you could even find another underlying condition that may cause it, instead of simply bad regulation of the sweat glands or nerves that control them. go check a doctor, don't suffer for no reason.

someone bring the hero of socialist labour insignia to this working class champion.

most gun enthusiasts are straight-out idiots, if not fascists/authoritarians. you can fit nice people within this hobby inside a samba bus.

my take: there's no class struggle without recognition of other oppressions, such as those of women, black people, indigenous people, immigrants, queer and so on. because they can happen even within a revolutionary context.
