  • nice article on the bottom-to-top organization of communes, and their need to be integrated into revolutionary efforts (anti-imperialism and socialism withstanding)

  • Pro Assad reporter would do. Though I guess it must be a bit difficult indeed to explain his role exactly.

  • You're not in good mood for the "Assadist" I suppose (Propagandist is a word in the vein of "Stalinist", as a derogatory term)

  • We all love these vets don't we? ๐Ÿ’•

  • In Farsi, its "death to America"

  • That reminds me

    If China or more especially DPRK didn't do that certain atrocity, they would then say something along the lines of "but their country is so wacky and insane that the story would've made sense anyway"

    Insert Masses Elites and Rebels quote

    Westerners want to believe that other places are worse off, exactly how Americans and Canadians perennially flatter themselves by attacking each othersโ€™ decaying health-care systems, or how a divorcee might fantasize that their ex-loverโ€™s blooming love-life is secretly miserable. This kind of โ€œcrab mentalityโ€ is actually a sophisticated coping mechanism suitable for an environment in which no other course of action seems viable. Cognitive dissonance, the kind that eventually spurs one into becoming intolerant of the status quo and into action, is initially unpleasant and scary for everybody. In this way, we can begin to understand the benefit that โ€œvictimsโ€ of propaganda derive from carelessly โ€œspreading awareness.โ€ Their efforts feed an ambient propaganda haze of controversy and scandal and wariness that suffocates any painful optimism (or jealousy) and ensuing sense of duty one might otherwise feel from a casual glance at the amazing things happening elsewhere. People arenโ€™t โ€œfallingโ€ for atrocity propaganda; theyโ€™re eagerly seeking it out, like a soothing balm.

  • (yes i know very reductionist and wrong but i hope you get what i mean)

    Yeah, something about dialectical materialism and of social being making the consciousness of an individual,

    That being said, I wouldn't fault you much; the user seemed to be more confusing, if not wrong, with their hot take comparison.
