Seeing this picture makes me see a strange alternate universe and I am not sure why
Can someone please check up on Iceland.
Dutch media are reporting on Navalny being send to a 'punishment camp' instead of to prison. Because they have gulags, we have prisons etc.
In the US we basically have prison labor paid below the minimum wage.
Yeah, prisoners get paid pennies to do forced labor which they then have to spend buying their own stuff. And yet Americans are always so concerned about the supposed gulags and sweatshops of other countries.
Patriots are in control

@GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml I did it
So much rain fell in the past weeks. And rivers are at risk of flooding.
I feel like I will have to deal with some mass flooding event in the coming years.
Oh no the links messed up
As I was watching a video of The Entente Gold, I started thinking about how World War I created Fascism: many of the earliest Fascists had served in the first world war and their imperial ambitions reflected their disillusionment with losing so much territory in the late 1910s. I suspect that few of us understand how important it was to Fascism, so I am tempted to write an essay about it in the previsible future.
I would read it
I'd be really interested in reading that
All I wanted for Christmas was the fall of the bourgeoisie. Maybe next year.
Wish list 2024: Lenin comes back
Inshallah
Merry Christmas!

Y'all somehow forgot to do a thing for Mao's birthday. The penalty will be deducted from the general Xibucks allowance.
Can't stop playing Minecraft, videogames are the greatest counter-revolutionary tool of the bourgeoisie.
Covid and all the things surrounding it seem to have had a dramatic effect on my immune system. I never got sick or the cold but from 2021 onwards it seems that every little virus gets me. I have been sick on and off for the past few weeks.
Covid also ages your immune system
Over the last year, study after study has shown that Covid causes long-term damage and disruption to your immune system. A study in BMC Medicine found that even a mild case of Covid can disrupt your immune system for months. Another study in Cell found that the disruption can last for at least a year, maybe longer. It could be permanent.

Masking, social distancing.. etc? Gov has one response: The economy is much more important. Please just die.
Same here, was never seriously sick in about 5 years before covid, since late 2021 I am getting quite sick seemingly every 3-5 months.
I have the same problem comrade. Since I had covid once, I seem to get sicker a lot faster and from smaller stuff - stuff that I did not get sick from before. It's never actually very bad but bad enough to feel shit for a day or two.
I hate it.
Hope you feel better soon comrade.
Me too. Now, I've not knowingly had Covid. But I've been badly ill three times since November and I feel like I'm coming down with something else. It's like three weeks on, two weeks off. Hope it ends soon. And I hope you're managing to rest properly. Take care!

Is Disco elysium any good? Wanna play this holidays. Any thoughts
Yes its great
Can I steal Christmas again next year 🥺 @GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml
Not a single mention about palestine genocide in the latest rust release notes. Hate this world.
Jihad will win
why is it that the puppets in divided countries are always the south lol. South korea, south vietnam, south yemen...
Looking at those countries it might be just strategic positions. Vietnam and the DPRK border China to the north and Yemen is bordering Saudi Arabia. It makes sense to not place your puppets in between two (semi) hostile forces.
Maybe access to the ocean is a factor, too? Hence Western Europe rather than Central or Eastern Europe. Until the 1990s, at least—although I wonder where the cracks first started to appear?
I'd bet it's because of access to maritime trade routes. Dependent capitalism has historically had some trouble advancing deeper into continents due to lack of required infrastructure (trains), so the most "developed" regions tend to be by rivers, ports and sea. So you both get this local bourgeoisie dependent on foreign trade as well as making it easier to deploy foreign troops for intervention, with carriers and the like.
But it also turns out there just aren't that many north-pointing peninsula countries in the world, specially outside the Mediterranean Sea. Best I could think of were the Guyanas (both the nominally independent and the French territory) and Suriname, and Israel is sort of north-pointing. There were also some East-West divides in South America, like the Triple Alliance War.
wondering if im able to still moderate hexbears, since im banned from it
it does say you still moderate the traa community lol
i am eternal
That would be funny
😭
I seem to be lacking the motivation to do party work lately. I don't know if it's because of the things the party asks us to do or because of personal issues.
What are they asking you to do?
Unspeakable things.
I'm kidding. It's mostly campaignjng stuff for upcoming elections. It's not too bad but I'm busy with work so I don't have the energy for it. Plus our action group is kind of quiet lately so I don't have that much interaction with other members, and that has a negative effect on my motivation.
Comrades who like video games if you havent played it the Tony Hawk Pro Skater remake is fantastic. Feels exactly like the originals just modern. Sound track slaps. Love getting new clothes and boards for my guy with cash i earned doing in game challenges and no other bs. High recommendation
happy new year all. this just made my year already
Do not mind me not here to cause chaous
