Zelensky may have been elected president, but the positions of governors are unelected in Ukraine. And the more you look at the ministers and governors in Ukraine, the more you see they are oligarchs or backed by oligarchs from the government immediately post-Maidan. Also as president, Zelensky has outlawed opposition parties and socialist parties. Nothing is binary, Ukraine can have presidential elections and still be undemocratic.
It’s like he constantly fails every check in that game.
Is that a paragraph of text? Nope that’s a leftist meme.
Capitalism requires violence to enforce the laws of private property against the needs of the collective. This is the basic function of police under capitalism. When the collective uses things like democracy to undo the laws of private property for the good of the common people, the forces of capital use extra-legal violence to kill and intimidate the collective. The goal is to force private property back onto the people and rescind any collective gains they may have made. This is fascism.
Look at the history of any fascist nation and this is the basic pattern. In fascist nations where the government isn’t toppled (Franco’s Spain and Pinochet’s Chile), the government rolls back the fascist paramilitaries and restores a form of liberal law and order that greatly empowers the elite and wealthy. The basic function of fascism is to stop the collective from taking power from the wealthy elite by any means necessary.
But what if I want dead US troops?
Probably a two part emoji or it’s too small.
that it sends a message to other dictators
What message is America sending to the dictators that we bankroll while they perform genocide using US equipment and training?
Don’t invade countries or we’ll send the other country stuff to make it go badly for you
Man I wish someone sent that message to the US before they invaded Iraq and Afghanistan, carpet bombed Syria and Libya, and funded various forms of jihadist militant groups for the past 20+ years.
There’s exactly one county that’s been toppling democracies and bankrolling dictators for almost a 100 years and it’s 
baby.
Please Jack, another $40 million or Lockheed Martin is gonna JFK me. 
Telling someone they suck a man’s dick as an insult is pretty basic homophobia. Unless you meant it as a compliment, then by all means I hope 
gets his knob schlobbed for all his hard work.
Go read about BRI infrastructure projects in Africa and Asia. The global south is generally very positive about Chinese politics because Chinese give them hospitals and roads and ports.
Casual homophobia to own the tankies 
There’s no purpose in quantifying who is more evil, but Musk is 1000% more obnoxious so for this one night 👐🔵 Zuck take my energy and make him bleed. Killing is too much to ask for, but give that transphobe permanent brain damage and I’ll make a FB post.
Chris I got enough to deal with the Feds up my ass, now you gotta federate the whole damn Hexbear? I got PMC DSA Karen radlibs asking me why I support a dictator like Xi. Some other mudderfucker in my ear telling me voting Biden is harm reduction. In my Hexbear? For Christ’s sake dey’re bringing up ancient history like Fidel Castro like it’s eh eh a bad thing.
I really think enough right wing weirdos who follow him told him not to like trans people and he’s just desperate for their approval and has now internalized the position. If you ask him I’m sure he’d say he’s always felt this way, but if we could time travel to the exact moment I’m sure it begins with a tweet somewhere.
It’s part of why I have moved on from “more trade unions is the most important thing.” Yes unionization is important and more unions is better than the fewer unions in every way, but they can easily be a dead end. Between the horrible laws in the US that restrict union activity and the reactionary thinking of “fuck you what’s in it for me” that is standard to Americans, there’s only so much unions can do.
It’s why I think a revolutionary workers’ party is necessary that works closely with unions but isn’t beholden to them.
Well it was New Vegas, clearly. Unless you like 1 or 2 cuz I haven’t played those and they are completely different styles of games and it’s okay to like them more.
It wasn’t fun at the time, but I’m glad we had the pronouns struggle session long before federation.

All this from a slice of gabbagool?
