  • This is not quite the insult you think it is.

  • Because le epic former redditors are mad that Russian firepower made the invincible Leopard tank look like this almost as soon as it reached the battlefield.

    Also because Beijing and Detroit look like this and this, respectively.

  • I’ve probably gotten further into Das Capital than you have

    Apparently not far enough to be able to spell the German title correctly.

  • This is some documented Zionist derangement right here:

    already prominent Zionists are saying they will come for America (as well as Egypt and Lebanon), and that Hamas already controls all worldwide institutions (thereby making them targets of the IDF).

    They do realize, don't they, that they exist on a lifeline from the US, and that furthermore the US is the one country in the world more brutal and convinced of its own righteousness than Israel is?

  • Yes, but at least we get to live in cities like this

    and not dystopian hellholes like this

  • Given their genocidal opinions, I like to think of them as Ataturks.

  • But has, in fairness, sold more newspapers than Pulitzer

  • Wikipedia on wartime deportations within the Soviet Union: "100 bajillion people died on account of Stalin being evil and bigoted and a member of the Russian KKK."

    Wikipedia on the English enclosures, the Highland Clearances, Siege of Drogheda, etc: nOOance

  • Yeah, seeing this is almost -- almost -- enough to make me go full Maoist.

  • Guy in the center is lib hero Jack Ma, the Chinese equivalent of Jeff Bezos (more or less). He got disciplined a few years back for violating antitrust laws, trying to create an American-style financial bubble, and publicly criticizing government protections for workers. Apparently no one is quite sure exactly where he is right now.

  • And on top of everything else, give him an extra 10 years hard labor just for this eyesore.

  • This is why the expression "to consume media" makes me unreasonably angry

  • A plan with pros and cons.

    Pro: it will keep the burger eaters from destabilizing and destroying the entire world.

    Con: all that American-ness concentrated in one place might produce a cursed nexus which, by warping the fabric of space and time, might end up destroying the world anyway.

  • Glad to see Karl, Freddy, and Leah (was that her name?) back.

  • The Republicans trot out one of these types every election -- somebody who by any real metric is just another Bush Era Conservative, but who also mouths whatever dumb kind of pseudo-populism happens to be in vogue on the fringes of the party. They're almost always women or minorities: Sarah Palin was one of the first, then we got Michelle Bachmann, Ben Carson, etc. And for about a month suburban wine moms and soccer dads go into ecstasies on social media about how "this is true political INNOVATION, we Republicans are the ones with REAL diversity" and many other such inanities, only to fall in at last behind whatever bland mainstream candidate the party leadership has been grooming all along.

  • This guy is just another one of those clowns who tries to ape Trump without having an ounce of Trump's peculiar.... shall we say "panache."

  • Racism goes with the Troskyite territory. Take this, for example, from Trotsky's "If America Should Go Communist" (1934):
