Never forget who we are fighting against. The imperialist system.

This is a global fight. We have to do for our loved ones and, if you are a parent, for your children. If we don't fight, tragedies like this will keep repeating.

Some of the places that are getting brought up in the megathread, like Bahrain, are really making me feel I need an ML crash course in what all is actually in the region and its recent (decades) history. There's a decent amount I know, but I'm realizing how limited it is.

What is happening in Bahrain is what it will look like when the imperialist presence weakens in every country of this world (it will be more prominent in the weakest links in the Global North and the Global South). That's why it is important to organize.

Opportunities for a revolution like Bahrain will keep appearing as long as the imperialists power declines.

Planning a 2200 km pilgrimage takes quite some effort, it turns out. Nonetheless exciting times ahead.

Political wise it's quite, I guess? Next week there is a general strike in Belgium and a huge turnout is expected. And we have the 8th of march, of course. Though that's a Sunday, which lessens its publicity.

Also looking forward to get out of this job. I've seen a lot of weird things happen and everytime you think: well this has to be the most weird thing to happen, only for a guy to piss through our mailbox today. People really can be animals.

Finally making the plunge after a 2nd temp ban on reddit. Death to America, Death to Israel.

[โ€“] Commiejones@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 hours ago

I wish you success tempering your power level in that den of scum and villainy. May your agitation be subtle and effective.

Have a great week, everyone. Stay safe if you're in potential danger, and if you're in one of the imperialist aggressors, do what you can to damage the war efforts! Ideally your org will be doing good work already, but be sure to combat hasbara and misinformation when you can. This is an unpopular war in a string of unpopular wars even in the heart of the Empire.

As always, communism will win.

My heart goes out to all the victims of USian imperialism, the enemy is strong, but the united people will win.

These are harsh times comrades, don't let despair take you. Take care of yourselves physically and mentally. We need to be at our best to face this head on.

I wish you all a great week! Communism will win, the imperialist enemies will fall

holy fuck, scouring r/tankiethedeprogram and seeing the usual either hasbara bots or straight up fucking insane people is crazy. i swear to god i just saw one straight up copy pasted from like, maybe what could be just the intended 'output' or whatever cuz the comment which wasn't supposed to be a quotation had quotation marks on it. langley lazy as fuck today, my god

[โ€“] Darkerseid@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

that subreddit fkn sucks so many times. omg. thought I was the only one who finds hasbara there.

[โ€“] 6kb_@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

for the most part i think i mentally block it out from being anomalous since it's largely just par for the course for mainstream social media, reddit is the opposite of an exception. it's just the stray commenter that gets there and starts talking about "You're just as bad as Israel for hating Israel" oh my god bruh. but you will, indeed, find them on like, every single post, so i think people just tune it out and forget that on other platforms like lemmygrad you wont find that sort of thing

Was Leo Tolstoy anti-semitic?

There was this paragraph in Hadji Murad that didn't quite sit well with me. It was about a russian officer that got a huge debt through gambling and i kid you not, Leo wrote "He settled his debt through a Jew who loaned him the amount with a very high interest."

On a vacuum it's a weird statement, however Leo normally references the ethnicities of it's characters, a cossack there, that tatar, the chechen, etc ... So i am not entirely sure. Still it's a weird thing to write about.

It's worth mentioning that he might've just shared the stereotypical views against jews that many other aristocrats shared during his time, a mild antisemitism we might say.

[โ€“] Commiejones@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 hours ago

Jews were specifically restricted from working in many professions so many were forced into money lending to support themselves. If the money lender charged him high interest it has nothing to do with him being Jewish and everything to do with the high risk lending to the Russian officer.

Fuck the kkrackker empire and its zionazi colony.

At this point, I genuinely have a hard time trusting white people on anything. eurokrakkers seem to only know the language of genocide, war, and imperialism.

In a break from usual Tradition I this was the second place photo for this week

The backpacks from the Elementary School, the United States decided to bomb. I have no words, only anger and sorrow.

[โ€“] 6kb_@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

good morning! death to usa and its proxy israel. and also, while this is less relevant to the topic at hand, i will never stop wanting to wrest justice from the decrepit and rotten hands of unrepentant japan, who is still yet to issue sufficient reparations or admit responsibility for all those they slaughtered, raped, and tortured.
