It’s not ethnic cleansing in your book, but who cares? It is according to the ICC, which is why there’s an arrest warrant for Putin for ethnic cleansing.
In the past nights Russia fired thousands of rockets and drones at civilian targets. The only reason Ukraine doesn’t entirely look like Gaza (and some parts do) is because of the population density and the air defense systems.
Ah, that’s why Israel bombed the fuck out of his military in day one! Because he’s their agent! And Assad wasn’t, because they never bombed him. Riiight!
Dear god did they deliver… The shit wagon rolled through town
First of all, I’d like to recommend you this article: https://crimethinc.com/2019/04/08/against-the-logic-of-the-guillotine-why-the-paris-commune-burned-the-guillotine-and-we-should-too
Second of all: it’s hard to imagine the intellectual development that led to socialism and anarchism, without the French revolution. Of course, it’s a counterfactual scenario to imagine history without the French revolution – but still, things happened the way they did.
Edit: French revolutionaries liberated women and banned slavery – until the counter revolution.
You’ve picked perhaps the worst outcome of the French revolution – save Napoleon. Burn the guillotine, like the Commune did.
So did the UK. Are we going to eradicate Dickens as much as Tolstoy?
People in Egypt are dirt poor and can hardly stay afloat themselves. Why expect them to take the burden for a crisis that they didn’t cause and don’t support? (Is Egypt corrupt as fuck and is are the people running the state rich as fuck? – yes.)
Here’s a tiny shred of evidence from this somewhat credible organisation called the UN/OHCHR: https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2022/08/un-human-rights-office-issues-assessment-human-rights-concerns-xinjiang
Would you now present me with ‘evidence’ that an entire ethnicity is primarily Nazi? Because that sounds awfully racist to me, but what do I know?
I love France and all, but let’s not pretend they have good coffee culture. What passes for cappuccino there… The horrors I’ve seen.
Armies relying on archers often had a continuous resupply running towards archers in position.
Yes, let’s ask the German government to make Stasi records spying on the private lives of citizens open and public, because it would help strangers win arguments on the internet.
You are not a very serious person, are you?
Yes sure let me just get an eight hour train to Berlin to work on your assignments, random person on the internet.
You do know that the USSR signed a trade deal with Nazi Germany even in 1940, right? When the rest of the world was already blockading Nazi Germany for… being Nazi’s. In fact, in 1940 the Soviet Union delivered about 75% of Nazi Germany’s imports, mostly in oil & steel. Stalin could’ve joined that blockade, and not supplied the necessary materials for the Nazi war machine – but he didn’t.
You can acknowledge that, and still acknowledge the USSR took the brunt of the force fighting the Nazi’s. It’s not a sports game, you don’t have to pick sides.

Mate it’s right there.
Marx believed that Socialism means that the workers own the means of production.
In China the communist party owns 60% of the economy, and the rest of the economy is hosting 406 billionaires.
What ghoulish logic. 50.000 civilian casualties, 6 million refugees, a country and a future in ashes, 1.5 mothers mourning their mutilated sons. And you talk about them as pawns in your imaginary game.
You are no better than the Hawks in the Pentagon. Not one bit.
The arrogance of these people passing around their homework as gospel.
It was part of the empire though.
