Difference between capitalist states' treatment of nazis and that of the socialists is that the capitalists kept them in positions of power — since the prevalence of fascism means the capitalist class can more easily scapegoat marginalized people for capitalism's faults — while the Soviets used them as reparations for the millions of Soviets the nazis killed, then left the nazis to rot afterward as they should — because fascism is actually a threat to socialist states.

Left-leaning governments specially in former colonies generally means more cooperation with Global South countries. While right wing ones lead to the opposite as we can see in Argentina right now with Milei.

Twitter is completely infested with nazis and far-right misinformation campaigns; even more so since Elon bought it. Banning it doesn't do much about the Brazilian right wing, but it does separate Brazilians from the american right wing somewhat, since Brazil makes/made up a third of Twitter users.

If it's similar to most of the other BRI projects, Tanzania and Zambia get railways, Chinese workers get jobs, more expertise in the field, and China gets access to healthier/wealthier markets in the two countries.

• Theoretical bases of China’s “win-win” foreign policy concept

The projection is crazy, China isn't Europe lmao

In many cases, the West German government actually had more nazis after WW2 than during the Third Reich

• More Nazis in West Germany's justice department after WWII than during Third Reich

  Fully 77 percent of senior ministry officials in 1957 were former members of Adolf Hitler's Nazi party, a higher proportion even than during the 1933-45 Third Reich, the study found.

• Nazis in post-WW2 Germany's government

  From 1949 to 1973, 90 of the 170 leading lawyers and judges in the then-West German Justice Ministry had been members of the Nazi Party.

  Of those 90 officials, 34 had been members of the Sturmabteilung (SA), Nazi Party paramilitaries who aided Hitler's rise and took part in Kristallnacht, a night of violence that is believed to have left 91 Jewish people dead.

Might as well vote for the PSL or Green if you happen to be free on election day. Just don't waste your time defending the two genocidal capitalist parties. Spend it organizing and taking direct action.

For the left, electoralism is only good for some advertising. A capitalist system won't let socialists come to power even if they somehow manage to win like we're seeing in France with Macron right now. Liberals will side with fascists long before they ever think about looking left, as they always have historically.

They're not europe lmao, no need to project

? How so?

It’s also one of israel’s primary trading partners, despite its pro-Palestinian rhetoric.

Turkey halted its trade with israel in May of this year. Only due to internal pressure most likely — and far too late — but better than nothing, and it is another sign that the country is looking more and more towards the rising east than the declining west even under Erdogan.

The type of population you get in a fascist state that's been indoctrinating people for over 60 years. Even nazi germany only lasted for 12.

Nowhere near good enough. These people only want the hostages back, not for the 60 years long and ongoing ethnic cleansing to end.

Still, instability in the occupation is definitely good for the resistance.

There is literally an entire "argument" under this comment between these two lmao wtf are you on about

east germany was part of the warsaw pact, and had plenty of ex-nazis in its ranks

Lmfao the fourth reich west germany literally had more nazis leading it in its government than during the third reich. The socialist states did the opposite and purged nazis — obviously, since fascism is actually a threat to socialist states whereas it's more of an asset to capitalists with them able to scapegoat marginalized people for capitalism's faults the more prevalent it is.

While still being a NATO dog? Interesting

? It's referring to how Macron is refusing to hand over power to the leftist coalition that won, in favour of the fascists.

My first instinct was to say GIMP or Firefox, but I could still use Krita or Chromium in those cases.

I'd say Anki then. I don't know of any other FOSS flashcard app this good, and I have so much saved on it that losing it would be devastating.
