Does it really matter whar we call it?

Depends on the currency. In America, no

It is George Alexpoulos and iirc they are a fascist.

No worries, take your time

To be clear I am not trying to argue with you here I’m just curious what you think.

What part of what I said have you found to be untrue? What sort of interactions led you to this conclusion?

The biggest similarity is that we are both willing to use violence to oppress our enemies. The difference is that the enemy of communists are our oppressors and the enemy of fascist is whoever they decide to not like at the moment. The ultimate attack on capital (communism) is materially different than the ultimate defense of capital (fascism).

Fun fact though, liberalism also supports violence (or at least passively accepts it) as long as it is mostly external. We don’t get to choose non-violence. You can attack the people doing violence, join the people doing violence, or accept the people doing violence.

Social cohesion is important for a smoothly running business. Unpunished rape creates problems on the shop room floor. Or to put it another way, rape gets punished extrajudicially in ways that are not good for business or social cohesion in general.

Few years ago. Right before this phase of the genocide in Palestine. I had an idea of it before that but I wouldn’t have called it a conscious thought until then.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Spanish anarchists. Their story is very romantic and inspiring. However, they didn’t exactly succeed no? The Spanish put up a solid resistance to fascism but in doing so they had to abandon quite a few of their ideals. I mean they had labor camps yk? They had to a build a semi-state apparatus in order to survive and I think that really undermines the message here.

there were signs all around my uni that said “dump your socialist boyfriend” for like NO reason 😭😭

Are you on my campus or is this a common thing?

Its actually a red panda iirc

It uses qubits sorry. Get a quantum computer loser

Hope they make it in time

They probably mean their google account

I really recommend having a youtube feed that is just subscriptions. No recommended section. It’s quite nice

Come to think of the dove nesting on my balcony showed up only after I joined that communist book club

I’m glad it was a good experience cause holy shit is it cool

To be clear this is copy and pasted but it is critical information about the motivations behind our aggression towards Iran that doesn’t depend on the dubious claim that Russia secretly controls the largest economic and military power of the last century.

To be entirely clear, a large contingent of the US ruling class has been frothing at the mouth to invade Iran for decades. It should not be surprising that it happened and we should not blame our governments aggression on foreigners. That rhetoric is a useful tool to reduce the fury you should rightfully feel towards our rulers.

I favor the theory that it was now or never.

They’ve overused sanctions and have kickstarted dedollarization. For the same reason they kidnapped Maduro, they only had few years before it reached an irreversible tipping point. They had to capture Iran’s oil and monopolize it to keep the petrodollar alive.

And.

Iran was becoming a harder and harder target to attack militarily, and it had just defeated their attempt at color revolution by demonstrating it could defeat their Starlink operation on the ground. The longer they waited, the more rockets and missiles Iran would have to retaliate against US assets. The post-color revolutionary period was actually the weakest Iran would ever be ever again.

And.

China is a rising juggernaut, and Iran plays a role in that rise. They’ve signed on to join the Belt and Road initiative, China was key to restoring relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia, Iran is a key oil supplier for China, Iran is a member of BRICS, and China has also been investing heavily in Iran’s infrastructure. It wouldn’t be long before the sanctions didn’t even matter anymore because Iran will be able to sell and buy everything it needs without the West.

And.

Israel is no longer a viable settler project. The promise of Israel was that it would be a walled garden in the wilderness, an imperial core lifestyle with superior fire power and a perfect missile defense system and an omniscient surveillance system. Hamas blew that myth up during the Al Aqsa flood, now Israel isn’t getting new settlers anymore and many settlers are trying to leave. It’s why they’ve had to ban Israelis from flying out of the country. If the Axis of Resistance isn’t destroyed, Israel is finished.

And I’m sure there’s more. Basically, if Iran doesn’t fall within the next few months, the US empire will begin an irreversible decline.

Buckle up

We need a really big pit
