I remember when I has a kid my dad was Watching "Pink Floyd The Wall" and the scene where the kids walked on an assembly line to become sausages scared me a lot. It became kind of a misterious movie to me because the melody was kids popular and I could remember how dark that sensation was.

Many years later I started listening to Pink Floyd and watched the entire movie. I still love it.

How they did it?

A Serbian Film.

That one is beyond fucked.

You need to be way more specific. Nearly every episode has "that one scene"

I have like tens of accounts on reddit.

Wrong password

existential crisis

I love this 🥰

Confessing your crimes. Save it for the wedding night.

Im not on lemmygrad often.

The left in Venezuela is kinda fucked. There is almost no Marxist discussion in Venezuela anymore, and the PSUV now is kinda outlawing the communist party.

Right now the mainstream Left in Venezuela feels like 1960s Cuban Revolution from Aliexpress. There is almost no intelectual discussion anymore, its all propaganda, it is extremely homophobic and Russia/China/Iran loving, and USA bad without explaining why USA bad.

BTW yes I know 1984 was partially based on Stalin's government and has anti communist messages. But I really like 1984. Orwell was also inspired by Franco's regime in Spain. He was also very well surprised by the Democratic socialist society of Barcelona at the time.

Finally. Some real Marxist analysis. Haven't seen one of these in a while.

Ill take time to digest your nice response.

To answer your question, I work at a public company in Venezuela and we had to attend a conference by a government official about the Russian war on Ukraine. This was barely like 2 or 3 weeks after the war started.

This guy started getting closer and closer to the Jewish Question, and ended up naming "The Jews" at the center of this conspiracy theories to justify why Russia had to invade Ukraine. I had to text everybody I personally knew at the conference to tell them "dont let him bullshit you, this is straight up Nazi talking points" and we discussed it after everything ended.

I already got it.

For me of was 5 and a half dollars.

Oh fuck shit. I gotta run.

Wait for a discount. A few months ago I got both Portal and Portal 2 for $2.

Also I dont like Russia in other aspects like surveilance, censorship, homophobia, lack of religious freedom (im an atheist but come on, Russia way is no good) and so on.

I think Putin (and by extension, the current Russian Government) is a far right wing ultranationalist, who operates in fascist ways, some straight out of 1984.

I do not agree with the war on Ukrane, not on the basis of defender the Ukranian Government, but on the basis that this war seems to be part of a bigger plan to extent the Russian current "empire" into Europe by force. And by doing this they are targeting civilian institutions, cities, hospitals, etc, among commuting many war crimes.

Im upset with some socialists people who defend Russia because they are falling for Russian propaganda and actively refuse to see the bigger picture of the conflict.

A turning point of me was seeing some self described "socialist" supporting Russia by telling conspiracy theories agaisnt Ukraine that were too close to "The Jewish Question" and talking about Hunter Biden for some God damn reason. And this was not a casual talk, this was someone talking at a conference, a left wing conference in my country.

And no, me opposing Russia does not mean I support American Imperialism. Some people cant believe that 2 things can be bad at the same time.

Bro look at the writings about fascism by Umberto Eco to have an idea about how I do define Fascism.

The US is 100% fascist. Many NATO members too. Who the fuck wouldnt think Neo nazis are fascist? That is the most obvious place to look at.

I dont wanna write an essay about Lenin so Ill just say he was BASED.

I dont have an answer on how this happens but it is also frustrating to me. Russian government is straight up fascist and yet you see people coping hard justifying their actions.

Maybe they are unaware that Mao and Lennin are dead and their current leaders are a whole galaxy away from continuing their legacy. (I dont even justify Mao since he was a cruel strongman who killed way too many innocent people once in power).

Well, I was very replaceble to my dad.

We dont know exactly but maybe 12 or older.

She is already blind and sleeps a lot.
