Israel was straight up bragging about the surveillance so…

Thank you, I’ll read the epubs of those books. I was trying to dig more into Dubcek but the Wikipedia entry glosses over how he arrived at his conclusion and ideals. The US doesnt always lie, but it does a lot, especially very recently. I dont trust governments of any sort. I tend towards arnarchism.

I wouldn’t be so sure. There are definitely authoritarian lefties, no matter how back asswards it seems.

I’d be happy to learn another viewpoint. But so far I dont see your claims backed up anywhere. Maybe if I could read some of your sources I could agree with them.

You never engage with me positively. So I couldn’t care less what you have to say. I never even engage with you first. You come to me to be a dick every time I post anywhere near an ml account.

Idk about that. Seems there were conflicting opinions about whether this was good or bad. And while yeah it makes sense the CIA would back this. I dont see Amy fascist shit here.

On the night of 20–21 August 1968, military forces from several Warsaw Pact member states (Albania, Romania and East Germany did not participate[58]) invaded Czechoslovakia. Soviet media cited a call for help from unnamed representatives as the cause of the “fraternal intervention”, publishing an unidentified appeal as proof on 22 August 1968; However, as it became clear from the first day that virtually the entire responsible leadership of the Czechoslovak government and communist parties, including Dubček, were being blamed as causes of the invasion, and even the Soviet-supported leadership fell into accusations against each other, most allied communist parties around the world rejected the Soviet pretext as a thin disguise for gross violation of national party autonomy.[59] Even President Ludvík Svoboda had publicly issued a statement calling on occupying forces to withdraw and for reforms to continue, while Czechoslovakia’s UN representatives were calling for international support against the invasion.

If the right wingers in my country are vehemently against it. It must have something going for it. Otherwise they wouldnt have made their own conservopedia.

It was not. Its my personal evaluation of a self described tankie. Which I dont think is an actual ideology. Just an insult. But OP said they were one so.

Directly from Wikipedia:

The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defence of the Soviet use of tanks to suppress the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.[6][7] The term has extended to describe people who endorse, defend, or deny the actions of communist leaders such as Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, and Mao Zedong. In recent times, the term has been used across the political spectrum and in a geopolitical context to describe those who have a bias in favour of anti-Western states, authoritarian states, or states with a socialist legacy, such as Belarus, Cuba, China,[8][9] Nicaragua, North Korea, Russia, and Venezuela.

So OP is basically saying they love it when governments crack the will of their people by force as long as its their team doing it.

AI Slop, doesnt even make since in the format because they’re both described as chads but not depicted as such

My call ringtone and text ringtones are pad noises from Star Trek. My alarm is the red alert sound.

Its all bullshit talk. What he means is the terrified elite are convinced they must track every movement of every citizen to ensure their dragon hordes remain and so does their influence.

I dont think they ever did

For some reason I’m getting chill Balatro vibes from this rice. Amazing work 11\10

We should. It would be less painful to somehow coordinate everyone to DC than it would be to just live these next three and a half years. I dont want to know what we will be by then at this pace.

Godot. Its the perfect time to pick a popular open source one that is very robust. Pick Godot. I truly believe it is more intuitive than Unity and sometimes even Unreal Engine. Just follow the official tutorials on the website to get started and once you understand how it works you can get pretty crazy with it.

Leave us in the past. Let the barbarians stew in barbarism.
