The people generally are for a more aggressive stance, while it's the leaders who are capitulationist. Look at Armenia and Iran right now, there are protests and riots because they are pissed at the governments inaction and cowardice against western aggression. The people demand a stronger stance.

So be it. WW3 would bring about global communism. Instead we get the doomed ending with humanity consuming itself via fascism and climate collapse.

With how much Russia is able to sustain toe-to-for attrition warfare against the west, imagine if the USSR, even in its late stages under Gorbachev, actually committed to a full scale attrition war against the West when it continued its imperialist aggressions. Actually took control of Europe by force and kept the West out of Eurasia and Africa.

Over half of Ukraine’s munitions and equipment is ex-soviet. Imagine if that was pointed West instead of East while we had the chance. The war would be a guaranteed victory.

I really think prioritizing unjust peace over anti-imperialist principled positions has been the most consistent mistake of the socialist projects thus far. War should not be shirked from over all else or we get Pez and Gorby and China’s foreign policy, which results in the West setting up as it sees fit to pick off the weakest links one by one.

i wish it were S300s and S400s, but unfortunately probably more likely that it’s more mundane and routine. Russia doesn’t have tons of spare systems sitting around to my knowledge.

Have you not seen those geoguessers on YouTube who can correctly identify a location from like a 1 second flash static image? A lot of that is meta things specific to google maps or the game, but if people have teams and resources not just a 1 second flash they can almost certainly narrow it down

now that's a show that disappeared into the cultural blackhole. Not seen anybody mention nip/tuck in a decade

Interesting development. It used to be that developing countries want to attract as many foreigners as possible to stimulate the local economy with their strong currencies, now people are even fed up with American tourists.

The governments and corporations want to attract tourists and foreigners. The working classes generally do not. This same dynamic has been witnessed basically in every tourist hub. "Developing countries" are not a monolith

There would be no poverty in a hypothetical socialist republic and no ability for any group to vote any other group into it. Old geriatrics just cannot be trusted to govern selflessly

It's so easy for him. Literally all he has to do is talk to the world leaders the rest of western media pretends cannot be talked to

I really do not understand the compulsion within old people to destroy the world on their way out. These are people with grandkids who won’t let go of their wealth and power and are fine dooming their own lineage out of spite

Voting power (in a hypothetical socialist republic) really should be pro-rated to remaining life expectancy. Those with skin in the game’s opinions matter more than those on the way out

Just put them in work camps or tie their work visas to their employers discretion for indentured servitude. They need the migrant labor, they don’t need to treat them fairly or pay them well.

Yeah Bob Vylan probably blew up in popularity from this

Nothing more punk than buckling to advertiser pressure

This mentality is why China has no reliable allies and is extremely anti-human and cynical. No wonder they pissed off the USSR and Vietnam and isolated themselves if they think like this!

to be an electoralist lib and have no imagination outside of that is to live a truly doomer existence. If you actually believe the only way to change things is to

It's like the other side of the coin of being an ultra leftcom that believes there's never been an actual socialist revolution in history, despite hundreds of years of socialist organizing and efforts. Like I would just end it all if I really thought that and believed that, why even be a communist anymore if you think it has a 0% chance of ever happening

I mean, they hinted at why. While China cannot afford a Russian loss, it can afford a Russian stalemate. Moreover, the longer they are in a stalemate, the longer the U.S. focuses and commits resources to that stalemate and not towards China.

The flipside to this is that the longer the stalemate goes on, the less Russia will be able to aid China in its upcoming and inevitable conflict with the west. Does China want a reduced and lesser ally that has been fully exhausted or a strong and capable one? Yet another short term self-own

The DPR is now part of Russia and has tons of socialist-aligned people

Yeah if “the war would be over already” if China was aiding Russia… why aren’t they aiding Russia? A bit of a self own disguised as an brag

What you are feeling is guilt, and you should only feel that if you are a willing conspirator in the shit. You are not guilty for existing as a prole, you have the world to gain from taking the wealth in your nation and redistributing it. Focus on the goal, we don't need guilty mopers we need focused communists.

A single nation state with its finger in a single neighbor's politics does not an empire make. Turkish nationalists have delusions of grandeur.
