Poland and Hungary are in the EU and they’re pretty openly authoritarian. It’s not even something new. Fidesz had over 40% of the vote share since 2002 and won a supermajority in 2010. PiS first got in power in 2005 with the failure of the Socdems to deliver anything but neoliberalism.
All endorsed by the EU and International community, yet these countries elected rabidly reactionary governments who promised to protect them from the EU
It’s from a duology of movies from 1954 and 1955. They’re actually pretty good, especially part 2.
There’s many memorable scenes, such as when there’s a protest outside a fancy bourgeois party and a popping champagne cork causing panic, or the strike scene with the Solidaritätslied playing in the background
Yeah, I agree. I was joking.
Shame the libs got full control over the AEUG and eventually became just another enforcer for the Federation, because it’s probably among the Best Factions in the UC
It’s also a difference between state actors being aware of the material conditions and talking among each other vs people being fed propaganda from the same people that has an ideological goal who often do not investigate.
there’s also a Kurdish military commander that looks exactly like Stalin
For all the Untermenschen talk the Germans sure got owned a lot
Eastern German industry was:
Concentrated in Saxony, Thüringen and Berlin, and mostly composed of ore mining.
Not untouched by WW2.
Subject to Capital flight in the earliest years of existence from frightened capitalists relocating to the west
The DPRK after the Korean War had incredibly fast growth iirc
It’s more of a terminally online, meme lord thing, but there’s certainty some Marxist-Leninists using the term in a positive context.
Didn’t this happen with the word “tankie” too?
They’re extremely irony poisoned leftcoms
The worst thing about that scene is that Lt. Quattro was joking
Ah, so it’s basically the right wing conspiracy theories of paid protestors, which seems to show up everywhere.
As is well known, Lassalle heard nothing of the “iron law of wages” other than the word “iron” borrowed from Goethe’s “eternal, iron, great laws”. The word brazen is a signature by which the true believers recognize themselves. But if I take the law with Lassalle’s stamp and therefore in his sense, then I must also take it with his justification. And what is she? As Lange showed shortly after Lassalle’s death: the Malthusian theory of population (preached by Lange himself). But if this is correct, then again I cannot abolish the law, even if I abolish wage labor a hundred times, because the law then governs not only the system of wage labor but every social system. Precisely based on this, the economists have been proving for fifty years and more that socialism cannot abolish natural misery, but only generalize it and spread it over the entire surface of society at the same time!
They’re using the same arguments as 150 years ago, yes.
The question asks which country is trusted the most, and Niger being a poor Sahel country means it probably has a large islamist population. The “Disdain for Democracy” is the moralist description of the results from the libs that wrote it, because western countries are distrusted, so it means they’re authoritarian backward savages or something.
He’s a mining enthusiast, so fossil fuel apologia.
I thought it was some 🤡 going on about innovation to stop climate change, but no it’s a ghoul giddy about Greenland mining and sea routes opening, while also dropping that he “used to be” a climate change denier and of course also proselyting about “the world is getting better all the time”.
Leftists: Capitalism plunged my family into poverty and is a dark entity destroying the world for no real reason beyond the need to sustain itself
Chuds: Movie had woman
Yeah, honestly this is anxiety-inducing for me. I am simply not built for twitter-like endless arguing/dunking. It did bring out a bit of effortposting out of me, but at what cost? Especially since I have to watch out for what I say in case I say something horrifically wrong (because there’s libs watching) or when there’s a reply notification it could be some 🌐 bozo ready to fight.
