The problem with liberal democracies isn’t that representatives are elected, its who those politicians represent. It’s not the working class, except when it is and those politicians get Salvador Allende’d 💀.

He’s a member of the ruling class who benefits from the exploitation of the working class. This is all just theatrics to distract you from the fact that while Trudeau and Pollivre may have minor disagreements regarding policy, their class interests are aligned. These people have way more in common than they’d like you to know. And pretty much nothing in common with you or I.

Youre welcome. The CIA agrees on the first point. www.cia.gov/…/CIA-RDP80-00810A006000360009-0.pdf

Okay mister Bolshevik. What you write is contrary to everything that I’ve read about soviet governance, but I guess I’ll just have to take your word for it.

The collective west is currently taking part in an active genocide, out in the open for all to see. But gommunism bad holodomor vuvuzela no iPhone. We can’t upset the genocidal ruling class now, can we?

@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

So the CIA calls him a dictator in one memo and not in another. I suppose that proves nothing in the end. Except that the CIA clearly doesn’t understand Soviet governance based on the other details in the memo that you linked.

This is funny, but also pretty unhinged.

@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

To be fair, it was also unhinged when the Kiev regime did it. I say this because to me, it feels like a glorification of war. This isn’t to say that I disapprove (not that that matters). As you say, it’s a direct response and I still think it’s pretty funny.

You didn’t read the article.

The Kremlin has denied any state involvement. Last month, Putin called Navalny’s demise “sad” and said he had been ready to hand the jailed politician over to the West in a prisoner exchange provided Navalny never return to Russia. Navalny’s allies said such talks had been under way.

Oh yeah, totally. Because the US state apparatus would never abuse the legal system to punish dissidents. They have the national guard for that.

Killed by who?

A separate report published in Haaretz noted that the Israeli military was “compelled to request an aerial strike” against its own facility inside the Erez Crossing to Gaza “in order to repulse the terrorists” who had seized control. That base was filled with Israeli Civil Administration officers and soldiers at the time.

An Israeli woman named Yasmin Porat confirmed in an interview with Israel Radio that the military “undoubtedly” killed numerous Israeli noncombatants during gun battles with Hamas militants on October 7. “They eliminated everyone, including the hostages,” she stated, referring to Israeli special forces.

While being held by the Hamas gunmen, Porat recalled, “They did not abuse us. We were treated very humanely… No one treated us violently.”

She added, “The objective was to kidnap us to Gaza, not to murder us.”

thegrayzone.com/…/israels-military-shelled-burnin…

I’m aware that some of the hostages that were taken were children. All accounts suggest that they were treated well, for hostages anyway. Its important to recognize that the Zionist regime keeps thousands upon thousands of Palestinian hostages, many of which are children. The Zionists could have negotiated an exchange, ensuring the safe return of all Israeli hostages. Instead, they decided to bomb the living shit out of Gaza, pretty much ensuring their demise.

I apologize if I misunderstood you, but there is no both sides here. The united nations recognizes the right to armed struggle against occupation.

UNGA Resolution 37/43 (1982) reaffirmed the “inalienable right” of the Palestinian people “and all peoples under foreign and colonial domination” to self-determination. It also reaffirmed the legitimacy of “the struggle of peoples for […] liberation from colonial and foreign domination and foreign occupation by all available means, including armed struggle.”

www.cjpme.org/fs_236/

It even mentions the Palestinian struggle explicitly.

I can’t understand how anyone can think building housing for a population is a bad thing. So do you want the quality of life for people in the DPRK to improve or do you not care as long as your idea of what it is, is proven correct?

o_d ,
@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Oh okay. So you’re genuinely interested in the DPRK’s participation in earth hour due to having electricity at night. Even though theres nothing about electricity availability mentioned in the article. Got it. Real thought provoking stuff.

Your argument conveniently ignores that the USA agreed to end NATO expansion, but NATO expansion has clearly continued over the last several decades. Russia and Ukraine also had signed 2 treaties, Minsk 1 and 2, which Ukraine broke and the USA admitted were signed simply to buy time to build up Ukraine militarily. It would be nice if all of these agreements had been followed, but that’s unfortunately not the reality that we live in.

You do realize that 95 percent of Tibetans were serfs and slaves who served feudal lords before the arrival of the Chinese communists, right? I’m sure they’re just dying to return to independence.

o_d ,
@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Liberals are always calling for balkanization. You’re completely missing the point. Tibet has been a part of China for centuries. Tibet was liberated by the PRC and reunified with China. All of this free Tibet energy is an invention of the west. There’s hardly anybody in Tibet asking to be freed.

All NATO weapons sent to Ukraine are 100% accounted for and would never end up in the hands of criminals (the fascist Ukrainian state excluded). Nope, nothing to see here. Just peaceful Europe.

@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

I didn’t say anything about Russia. Don’t change the subject.

A report released in January by the Pentagon Inspector General’s office found that the Defense Department failed to conduct proper end-use oversight on more than $1 billion worth of military equipment — nearly forty thousand weapons — sent to Ukraine.

jacobin.com/…/ukraine-us-weapons-defense-departme…

Much more likely its regular old US military corruption or weapon manufacturer corruption along with smuggling on the border.

It may be the USA sending the weapons, but its with the backing of Ukraine’s EU neighbors, part of NATO, who completely support them.

If you believe this, then you’re completely ignorant of the events that led to this war in the first place.

@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Are you so naive to think that Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and even the 2013 coup in Ukraine were not acts of conquest of the US empire? Perhaps you’re correct that the wider international community has rejected acts of conquest, but this certainly doesn’t include the USA, who is quite literally a rogue state.

Previous waves of Chinese immigrants to Hong Kong came mostly from the southern part of the country. They often spoke Cantonese and integrated quickly. But the latest influx comes from all over the mainland, says Eric Fong of the University of Hong Kong. “Integration, if it occurs, may take longer than in the past.” Hong Kongers, protective of their distinct identity, are not always the most welcoming bunch. When a group of mainland children was spotted squatting on a train platform last year (as is customary in parts of China), locals poked fun at them on social media.

Some aspects of culture are really not worth defending. Another big L for the economist.

If you’re referring to the article that this is written about, then yes. The burden of evidence is on those making the accusations. In this case, the IOF is accusing Hamas of rape without any evidence. The MSM is acting as a mouthpiece of the IOF, by reprinting their statement without any due diligence.

o_d ,
@o_d@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Every one of these sources is a dead end. They all point to other news articles that make similar baseless claims or webinars on YouTube (?!). Or worse, they cite themselves as evidence.

No evidence?

[…]

I’m not claiming these sources (all of which, but especially the third one, rely on other, specified sources) are necessarily trustworthy, etc. But evidence is absolutely being claimed.

Yeah. Claiming there’s evidence and actually providing evidence for such claims are completely different. That’s the whole point.
