You make a good point. Nationalism in socialist projects still deserves scrutiny.

Fascist and fascist adjacent nationalism tends to define the “nation” in a way that excludes and endangers entire demographics who often wield little power to begin with.
I’d argue that nationalism itself isn’t inherently bad though. Many anti-colonial movements are nationalist, and AES countries have nationalist traits.
I believe Stalin’s “Marxism and the National Question” wrestles with this but I am yet to read it.
I feel that. I wish I could be smug about dropping a childhood fascination for political reasons but it was never really interesting.
If you really wanted capitalism gone, getting rid of humans is a lasting solution. The tricky part is getting the humans on board with the plan.
It’s probably a lot easier to convince the humans to just do communism.
Unionise, strikes, mutual aid, and other forms of collective action that leverage the power of a group of people to their benefit.
Fights though? Where did you get that from?
Hey now, just because we’re communists doesn’t mean we can’t have a dozen different brands of the same joke.
A three letter agency employee has just learnt about the process of elimination.
(Athel for short)
it would imply the “non-rogue” Russians are somehow better.
This “Good guys or Bad guys” logic is why libs keep simping for any nazi that has the same enemy as them.
One day I hope to see a map of Chinese flags around the US, but instead of military bases it’s just Chinese built infrastructure.
I’ve never understood how you could actually effect sparrow populations in rural China. I used to consider it one of the L’s of communism until I thought about the logistics of it.
You might be able to drive birds out of a densely populated city with a bit of effort, but Mao-era rural China? What?
Exactly this. He’s already acknowledged China has no interest in the current set of demands.
Exactly right. They push a cynical and loveless socialism that has disunity baked into it.
The people they are pandering to aren’t being won over. Their beliefs are being reinforced when they see that even the lefties can be bigots.
“It’s unclear” can be translated to “I’m not listening.”
“Small governmint”
Donates to pro-USAF orgs.
I’m not aware of any statements from the NZ government on the election. I doubt most of the countries in red have seen any reason to comment on it either.
This map is a copy+paste west vs. east.
This article is written in the premise that these “mistakes” are any action that causes the US to take a hostile action. Presumably the ideal strategy would be to tiptoe around the US and never act counter to it’s agenda.
It’s the tune of an imperialist. The empire has only one direction and if you get hurt standing in its way it’s your own fault. Let’s not mention the likelihood that you’ll get hurt anyway.
“America is already destroyed, we called you names.”
I wish the Soviets had tried that.
And they don’t elaborate whatsoever. Goddamit.
I think (hope) it just people getting into the satire.
The game never seems to paint the antagonists with any ideology though. So when people like the one in the OP start talking about communism they’re telling on themselves.
Not bad.
