God, I wish, but Russia is always begging to be considered Europe and white, ever since Peter the Great (except maybe during Lenin’s time), and it’s not much better since they’ve become neoliberal. I think that was one of the causes of the fall of the USSR.

This is where I work best anyway. It’s the geopolitical version of finishing your homework the night before it’s due lol.

I’ve been reading more, both normals books and I bought some of the new Absolute comic books. I also redownloaded the shonen jump app and been reading Manga while in line instead of scrolling as much. Shonen tropes are starting to boring though so I need to stray diversifying to other manga audiences.

And I’ve been playing more video games. In the middle of BG3 now!

I think a lot of us who were looking forward to the collapse of the US were hoping the left would be more put together by the time this moment came lol.

They’ll be studying his body in a thousand years like the Egyptian mummies.

I live in a major city in the US. I was surprised we didn’t already have one. I’ve thought about it, but not sure if I’m good enough socially to pull it off lol. But maybe I could look into it…

Just got the book, so going to try to join in! Can you add me to the mention list? Will try to crack it open and catch up this week.

I wish there was a TWC chapter where I live =(

Anybody ever look at all the podcasts and YouTube creators and other people and consider that basically every creative on the internet is owned by only a couple companies? (Basically YouTube, Patreon, or Kickstarter.)

A few companies have their own media platform, well, Dropout.tv and Nebula specifically. We need a non-corporate owned money distribution system for these creatives, too.

Agreed. People here are clearly salty the chapo hosts didn’t like their subreddit before and it’s making them forget how every digital platform corporation has ever acted in the history of corporations.

What’s up with the tariffs in the first place? Does Canada even make EV’s or were they just obeying the US?

I think Biden reversed the policy of separating kids from parents, which is a perfect encapsulation of the “pulling the knife halfway out” method of solving the problem Malcom X talked about.

Amazing victory! I clearly didn’t have enough faith in the workers of Bolivia to maintain their power despite the new neoliberal administration. Maybe they’ll be alright…

Oh I didn’t know someone literally said that lol. I was just making a joke

Truck Guy: “I don’t like the current government but I also don’t want the shah back in charge.”

Gusanos: “Kill him!”

This is the best description of this process I’ve seen yet. This may be my new go-to explanation of US foreign policy. It applies to basically everywhere.

That’s got to be it, right? It’s just so fucking weird and random how badly he wants that place.

Totally. That threatens NATO and I wouldn’t be surprised if senior military officials are all NATO-philes.

Unfortunately I’m not sure why they weren’t. When I was in a PSL protest, they sought out any new faces like mine afterwards, handed us literature, socialised, tried to get contact info, stuff like that.

Democratic Centralism should make them more consistent across chapters but idk, they might just be not as good in your area, idk 😥 (go for FRSO maybe?).
