CINO

It usually doesn’t matter

It’s also accurate as everything reactionaries don’t like is woke

The Wagner private military organization – Openly neo-Nazi Azov Battalion

Why isn’t the first described like the second

Thank you for the information. Guess I can’t joke about being a gringo lol

I’ve heard gringo is about language, primarily English (or another native tongue instead of Spanish). Not about being a whitey

Transnistria is a thousand miles from Odessa, twice as far as St. Petersberg, and Pskov is about 400 miles away.

Vibes, vibes, vibes.

No. The material reality is that Transnistria is roughly 100–150 km from Odessa and not the thousand miles being claimed.

Pskov is near the Estonian border, and St. Petersburg is on the Baltic Sea. Neither of these cities is close to Moldova, so they are largely irrelevant to any invasion plans in that region.

It’s important to rely on concrete conditions and verifiable data rather than hyperbolic claims and vibing.

Under this deal, Putin gets to annex key territories while Ukraine is kept out of NATO and left without American peacekeepers, forcing Europe to buy U.S. military gear. Imperialist powers divide and weaken working people by keeping nations in chaos and under constant threat. This brief period of “peace” isn’t for long as capitalist interests allow Russia to regroup and rearm. Ukraine remains in a disordered, free-for-all state under imperialist influences. In time, this setup could let Russia launch an invasion through Odessa to connect with Transnistria.

Who mean those on the right? They don’t even self identify as leftists, why should some of their followers say that?

I have nothing to argue about. I’ll earnestly fix any mistakes. Honesty can go both ways if you’re willing.

I am outside and there’s no hate. I support the people everywhere.

What is the purpose of attacking with fabrications which don’t match the modlog (context for the people’s court) or the screenshot?

Show it and I’m happy to correct any harmful behavior! :)

Show me as well

Shared to an IM group from somewhere and reshared here. What I understood is it seems to be pretty open when asked how it comes to its answers

It’s a good idea and countries started that with Russia though it’s still continuing. USA would just follow that model

Democracy is demagogue-prone. That’s a disease to which electoral systems are vulnerable. Yet demagogues are easy to identify. They gesture a lot and speak with pulpit rhythms, using words that ring of religious fervor and god-fearing sincerity.

The practice can always be detected by anyone who learns the signs: Repetition. Great attempts to keep your attention on words. You must pay no attention to words. Watch what the person does. That way you learn the motives.

They create a system where most people are dissatisfied, vaguely or deeply. This builds up widespread feelings of vindictive anger. Then they supply targets for that anger as they need them—as distraction. Don’t give time to question.

They bury mistakes in more laws. Traffic in illusion. Bullring tactics. Wave the pretty cape. People will charge it and be confused when there’s no matador behind the thing. That dulls the electorate just as it dulls the bull.

Fewer people use their vote intelligently next time.

There appears to be a rule of nature that says it’s almost impossible for self-serving groups to act enlightened, flowing with the forces of life, adjusting your actions that life may continue. With the greatest amount of happiness for the greatest number, of course.

The risks of democracy and how to prevent them paraphrased from Dune.

Apparent everywhere, Trump is just one in this path of centuries.

Focus on actions, not promises, and unite against inequality and division. Systems should be simple, transparent, and work for everyone, not just the wealthy or powerful. Educating and organizing workers, holding leaders accountable, and building solidarity across all groups are essential for achieving fairness. Lasting change comes from addressing root causes, not chasing temporary fixes.

Maybe the next century will show results somewhere.

Sure, we can allow more trust to I dunno, Nauru, to a certain degree and many not

No safe harbors for socialists anywhere

It would probably only verify that there aren’t really trustworthy governments in the world

State capitalism, as Lenin explained, can be a transitional phase under a proletarian state. However, AES states developed bureaucratic classes managing production, diverging from Marx’s idea of collective control by the working class (Critique of the Gotha Programme).

I do not reject evidence but consider contradictions. AES planning excluded workers from real decision-making, violating Marx’s principle of collective worker control (The Civil War in France).

I never claimed socialism must be flawless. Marx recognized contradictions exist in all stages.

Revolutions prove nothing without examining their results. AES states stabilized under bureaucratic control, sidelining the working class, which Marx and Engels warned against (The Communist Manifesto).

Marx and Engels envisioned workers directly controlling production. The USSR’s soviets were subordinated to a centralized bureaucracy, diverging from this vision (The State and Revolution).

These comments are rooted in Marxism’s principle: the working class must emancipate itself.

It might be valuable to try to be mindful of the displayed habit of repeatedly misrepresenting what is written, either purposefully or out of misunderstanding. This distorts and distracts from the actual topic and makes for a standoffish look.

Sometimes, considering a broader perspective rather than adhering to a rigid viewpoint, even when it feels like it has all the answers you’re looking for, can help break free from those cognitive dissonance patterns.

Good night.

Thank you for acknowledging this is going nowhere. As said multiple times, there are no perfection requirements, only an emphasis on aligning with Marxist principles. Beyond that, this has always been just forum posting, not a debate to win.

One thread is enough
