It's ok to acknowledge that things are bad and to know that progress wins out in the end.

사필귀정 (Good prevails in the end)

Here and everywhere else, it's easy to doom. No matter how chaotic the world is, good will prevail in the end.

Of all the species of Western Marxist, the British ones are the most disgusting.

They pretty much spent the entire Cold War licking blood from Soviet boots. And since the end of the cold war they lick the blood off the boots of Milosevic, Assad, Putin, and pretty much any tyrant they can find.

I hate steam sales...

I own 400 games, of which I have only played 20. I blame the steam sales. Because I refuse to take responsibility for my irresponsibility, every single time I see this:

Thank you for pointing this out. Most modern "nationalist" movements are far more internationalist than the actual internationalists. European Social Democrats can only dream of the levels inter-European cooperation that the far-right is engaged in.
Most "nationalist" parties in europe have ties to russia and China. Makes sense that our adversaries would sponsor parties that destabilise and weaken us.

With the BBC director general resigning, I would like to recommend @vladvexler.bsky.social's take on the controversy. The problem is that mainstream media does not understand how to report the statements of post-truth politicians such as Trump. And they will keep losing if they don't learn it.

No. New Yorkers just have a very inflated sense of who they are. They are the Italians of America.
NYC is larger than a sizeable number of countries, and the mayor of NYC has traditionally been a relatively powerful political voice. Which is why the racism dial has been turned up, since everyone right of center in politics is 12 years old now and only doing identity politics

Hasan Piker has been a blight to online political commentary. From pro-Russian propaganda, Soviet revisionism, to antisemitism, the damage he has caused will take years to repair.
Kinda glad this is getting some folks back to reality.

I feel vindicated. Said for a while that the "Cut a Liberal and a fascist bleeds" crowd are poison, and trying to build bridges to them is at best self-harm. Liberal influencers should block them, blacklist them, and focus on building our own space separate from those commie ghouls.

If the European response to Russian missiles hitting their embassies isn't harsher, then I guarantee you that Russia will hit those embassies again. You can never show weakness toward an aggressor.

One of my favourite pictures ever was taken 57 years ago today. After invading Czechoslovakia, the Soviets announced there would be a huge pro-Soviet rally on Wenceslas square at noon. Which is when and where Josef Koudelka took this picture.

IMO, this is my personal favorite from all Tatsuro Yamashita's albums. Underated quality and mastery of genre variation.

The army built to conquer Europe, was destroyed in Eastern Ukraine within 4 years. We owe the Ukrainians an incredible debt and gratitude.
I’m kind of in disbelief. When I was in my strategic studies classes in 2018 looking at the satellite photos of lines upon lines upon lines of Soviet era tanks I kind of assumed we’d be looking at them forever. A country with the GDP of Arkansas destroyed them all. That is really something.

One of my educators, a Pole who lived under communism put it best:

"When you actually live under communism, there is a limited amount of time you can comfort yourself by saying it is not real communism, until you realise the real communism is what was oppressing you all along."

16 countries sent troops to South Korea to fight for them when North Korea invaded in 1950. Something worth reminding Korean progressives who want to deny aid to Ukraine.

@spaghettikozak.bsky.social once pointed out to me that every single 9/11 truther from the late 2000s and early 2010s, turned into a far-right MAGA nutcase by the late 2010s. I think that's worth remembering for anyone who may now think about peddling Epstein conspiracies.

@derparrot.bsky.social Good afternoon from the US, I've been reading a book from Matthew Longo "The Picnic" and am fascinated with Miklos Nemeth and his role in the iron curtain's collapse. Has Miklos Nemeth been talked about recently or has something changed?

I'll never forgive those who attacked me for picking a side in 2024, because "both sides were equally bad."

This mentality brought authoritarianism to America.
