Ukraine has been reduced to sending press gangs to kidnap old men to the front lines.

Fun fact: US support for this regime was so thorough that we tried to do a Bay of Pigs (Valley of Llamas?) there and it went even worse than the original. Like, do not pass go, do not collect lethal aid, straight on the forgotten failure pile next to the Siberian War.

The only people China has displaced from Tibet is an entire theocratic class of pedophile priests who kept the people in literal serfdom

Edit: Actually I just reread this and it looks like they kicked out the landlords too

Playing the hits I see

"Hmm can't fool me Ivan, you're just presenting facts that prove your point and make me look foolish, aren't you?"

The dastardly tankie strategy of knowing what you're talking about before you start talking about it.

I like to imagine that when the Black Eyed Peas came up with the lyric "let's get it started" as a replacement, it was like the end of a moon landing movie. The airlock door to the writing room unseals with a hiss, the band members walking out in slow motion to a cheering crowd. Moustached men in mission control high fiving, hugging each other and chainsmoking. Clusters of big vintage news cameras flash. The solemn yet hopeful horn music swells. They did it.

"In training"? Why were they training them in a combat zone, they can't be that desperate for troops just yet. Are they really so arrogant, or is their security really that poor?

Yes, I have long since stopped considering paying money for a home

Like how fascists think liberals are marxists, despite liberals and marxists both knowing how dumb that is

Yes, I imagine it would be tiring if anyone actually argued that. Since it's a ridiculous strawman though, I think you're in the clear

This is the crux of it: where once there was some kind of definition, now it's just a snarl word for "leftist who makes points I can't refute."

You're posting this photo because the video it's taken from shows him climb up on the tank, have a conversation with the tank commander, climb down off of the tank and leave without incident.

E: literally 3rd result on YouTube, from the CBS news archives:

"That doesn't make it any less impactful" Uhh yes it does, because the impact when this photo is shared without context typically comes from the implication that he was run over, like an American protestor might be.

People who believe this dumb racist red scare boomer bullshit deserve to be made fun of forever. Capitalist bootlickers stay projecting.

Unhinged gerontocracy behavior

"Noo this is just like them, we have to be better"

I'm not federated so I have to respond to this comment here.

It's 2024, where did eight years of "being better" get you? Under the boot, that's where. "Civility" in politics is such brain poison, it's a matter of life and death, not a dinner party. I will take as much satisfaction as I want from the misfortune of my enemies, because spreading misfortune is their entire life and it's good when they're impeded. Fuck the big wet ex-president, I hope a titan boa squeezes 70 years of McDonald's grease out of him like a tube of toothpaste.

That said, 34 convictions is only the first half of the punchline. The next big laugh comes in November, when red fascist beats blue fascist anyway and the big 8-year Mayan calendar at the DNC rolls over to 2016 again.

Also, not to sound self-absorbed, but when Biden loses liberals will 1000% blame the left again. I only say so because I've been making an effort to be more public in my predictions, on account of being right so often.

"Um akshually you have to cooperate with the fascists to stop the fascists sweaty. KPD? Rosa Luxembourg? Never heard of em

Tell genocide Joe to give me my $600 and then walk into the sea
