It only counts when I say it does

Why do you believe that Lenin's narrow and skewed definition of imperialism is the only true and authentic one?

The word was in common use for at least 100 years before Lenin even started writing, mostly used to denigrate French and British expansion and colonialism.

I believe Marx would also disagree with Lenin on this definition, but I understand that .ml are much bigger fans of Lenin and Stalin than Marx.

GOG Fighting the Good Fight

Reply in thread

I never actually saw the mail before. I read the GOG apology and assumed they used runes that looked a bit too similar, but looking at the screenshot they full on used the Siegrune at least.

Rereading the apology, they might not be Nazi's but they're definitely not sorry enough to give a proper apology for using Nazi imagery. That's not a good look either.

Are Japanese men just ... problematic

The President of the United States raped children, everyone knew it, and he was still elected with the consent of the majority of Americans.

I don't think it's specifically Japanese.

In a two party system as extreme as the US, and with FPTP voting, there's a real risk that losing an election will forfeit rights that you'll never get back. Would you still have a vote after another 8 years of conservative rule?

I rather think that infiltrating the political establishment and dismantling it from within (like these politicians seem to be doing to some extent) is much safer and doesn't risk the need for violence.
