Yes, really. This photograph depicts a few dozen of the one million people killed in the CIA-backed anti-communist massacres led by the capitalist Suharto regime in Indonesia. Read a book.
@souljagoyteller But I think you have to take into account that China is seriously developing the capacity to force a political unification without the cost of an outright invasion. Means such as blockade and economic sanction. This is called “以武促統” in Chinese rather than “武統”
An anti-racism gyaru was elected to Kawaguchi's city assembly yesterday:
Okamoto Sayuri made opposition to racism a major issue in her campaign. Her campaign materials focused on debunking misinformation about foreign residents receiving preferential treatment.

@JDVance Sorry but you were the only baby ever worth choosing crack over. Every time your mom neglected you was justified. Sorry. Amy Adams sucked in that movie too, sorry. Nothing you touch ever goes right. You should try some of Elon’s medicine sometime. Sorry.
Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."
Marx in the Grundrisse: value isn’t eternal. It only fully develops under capitalism, where products cease to belong to the worker and exist only as exchange-values. Labour “counts” as value only when it produces commodities for sale—an alienated, historic relation.
@souljagoyteller On behalf of German industrial and finance capital, the social democrats headed by Friedrich Elbert successfully established the first German bourgeois republic by betraying the 1918-19 workers revolution (ganged up with proto fascist militia like Freikorps and Stahlhelm)
One of the reasons I always like reading Scruton.
How many conservatives today would open a section on Marx acknowledging his "prodigious intellect" and admiringly noting how interesting his ideas are in themselves?
A great example of how not reading yields historical illiteracy. The Romans were a famously multiethnic people who, in 212 AD, granted citizenship to everyone within their domains. Emperor Septimius Severus was Libyan. The defenders of Western civilization know nothing about it.
