Could be by accident. I remember I once accidentally downvoted something and only realized it once I searched through my history.

Bump!

I mean they could have easily made a movie about german defectors to the greek resistance or the soviet army. Instead of we were just following orders movie nr. 2732323 - if they wanted to make a movie from a german POV. Like there are so many of them and almost all from the same perspectives.

Is that the one where that troop of nazis have that russian collaborator gf and then when she ditches them she gets shot by soviet military personnel? Because I remember that part.

he whole country comes off like a scheme for rich Maronite Christians collaborators to endlessly profit off their little theifdom, but the fact that Muslim Lebanese buy into it as well is crazy.

The Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate was literally created just for the maronites on pressure of the west (especially france) with the Règlement Organique. They actually couldnt be a vivable state so they later begged the french to expand their statelet. Similar to Ukraine, Jordan and Austria, its national identity is very bourgeoisie and exists to shield only small oligarchic sects. I guess most of population only bought in as a reaction of the Syrian invasion. (Not to dismiss hezbollah or anything)

You know despite making so much fun about the "trump is fighting the deepstate and will release the epstein list!!" q-anon/maga, some have not a too dissimilar mindset in the end.

Imagine being this stubborn and fighting this many starwmen.

Yawn. Calling everyone doomer, wrecker and "so called leftist" has lost its punch, especially when it is in the defence of a milquetoast socdem. He is not pro-palestine enough and its the work of the american left movement to direct the working class towards more radical policies, not cater and tail towards the most reactionary elements on the "left side" in the name "electability".

The strategy to turn the dems into a working class party strategy, paraded as the panacea, is dead in the water, hell the corpse has been poising the pond at this point.

I know you apparently have invested a lot of personal time, money and social connections into that man's career. Which not only makes you mentally biased against any criticism, but in the end it also does not absolve mamdani from it, despite the effort you put in.

I get the feeling, I went to university. There were many times, I put a lot effort and time into something and it got graded badly or was considered unexceptional. I was frustrated and angry because all the effort went nowhere, however this did not mean my work was unfairly judged.

Defund was already the sanitized version of ACAB and now that is even too radical.

Truth is rarely appreciated and celebrated.

I remember the whole "revolutionary defeatism" and "russia is an akshually tsarist empire and smol bean uwukraine needs our help!". Memory holing isnt just done by libs, we have that in spades a plenty.

Hell liberal zionism was even something that persisted until the last two years here on "our side".
