Batman the “superhero”

Reply in thread

That's the point. You have a Villain who wants something good (stop the destruction of nature) and then pair it with something very evil (genocide). It's a very common trope in media. It leads to the "Hero" of the story being able to defend the status quo again and again without ever challenging it.

wholesome rule

I paid 250€ for my current Xiaomi and I love it. It's ridiculous how good the phone is compared to its cheap price. No way I will stop using Chinese phones (especially since the CIA is a lot scarier than the CPC)

the maoist international movement goes right out of spite

Ah yes, we famously can't imagine incremental steps from Capitalism to Communism.

That's why dunk on Anarchists non stop for believing that you can just flip the communism switch and be done with it. Or why we support China and recognise that their incremental transition is valid and so far has been the greatest success of the 21st. century.

What the commenter really meant is "I am incredibly annoyed at those damn tankies and their will to reach communism eventually. Can't they be happy with Social Democracy and stop asking for more?"

Has anyone a genuine idea why ultras are like this? It's not like anyone was happy introducing the reforms and taking an (admittedly big) step back but reaching Communism eventually is a process. Why is it so hard for them to realise that countries don't exist in a vacuum. To ensure the long time survival of the Revolution taking a step back is a small price to pay when the alternative is failing and getting pillaged by the west.

How bloodthirsty are the Liberals in your country right now regarding the war in Ukraine?

Basically since people here have been affected, at least economically, a lot of the popular support has waned.

Interesting. Here Germany we can also feel the sanctions quite a lot. Electrical bills also went up and big concerns announced that they would leave Germany and outsource their production somewhere else. So a lot of people are currently afraid they could end up jobless in a while. And yet support for Ukraine is not going down. I think it just makes people more bloodthirsty.

Can we please defederate from Hexbear?

I have also read calls to put Nazis Infront of walls. I am very left (I watch every Vaush Stream and Contra Points video) but how can anyone pretend to be a leftist and call for measures like this? Killing Nazis would make us as bad as they are. We need to engage in civil discourse with them and beat them in the marketplace of ideas.

In DDR everyone was alloted an apartment to live in, but it was not a good place to live in but Ukraine is good 👍

It's weird my mother and her siblings all lived in the GDR. The GDR was disbanded when they were in their early to late twenties. My mother who was the oldest sibling has quite fond memories of the GDR (even though she was annoyed at some aspects so much that she considered putting forth an exit application. My uncles who where in their early twenties when the GDR fell don't think that way. They have adopted the Soviet Union bad, America good mindset.

Being a Nazi was very nuanced

This shit makes me so fucking angry. Honestly I will threat people with violence should they bring it up in real life. Slander Stalin? Yeah sure whatever liberal. Make apologies for Hitler in the same sentence?

Why do you guys even go to bat for China so hard? They’re not even communist? They are state capitalists and more right wing and authoritarian than the US republican party (other than on green energy)?

Because they aren't. You are being lied to. If you want to understand us I recommend reading "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics: A Guide for Foreigners" by Robert Boer.
