Biden and Israel have already dropped enough explosives on Gaza to equal two atomic bombs, and they haven't stopped.

Reminds me of that photo of all the Japanese politicians physically wrestling for a single pen.

How to edit jargon to make an article suitable for a Western audience:

Change "term" to "reign"

Change "administration" to "regime"

Change "ad campaign" to "propaganda"

And so on.

True. It'll be interesting to see what revolutionary organization in the US will look like going forward.

Recently there was an Anarchist Spiderman in the latest Spiderverse movie, the Fireflies in Last of Us (while technically "antagonists" they were still very much portrayed as the heroes of the story), Green Arrow, V from V for Vendetta come to mind off the top of my head.

If a self-proclaimed Marxist can only quote European or Western Marxists, they are severely limited in their analyses.

As a USian I'm here for it too.

Yes, it's going to suck. But it was going to suck hard anyway. At least now the Democrats will be out of the way and unable to siphon anymore revolutionary energy from the masses. It'll be final boss time from here on out.

Noam Chomsky, George W Bush and Hilary Clinton all have episodes in the same "Masterclass" series

I've really wondered what 6 will look like given how abhorrent female representation is in these games. It'll likely still have its cringey moments, but the trailer looks pretty encouraging.

Every leftist Hollywood movie villain is always some extreme ultraleft accelerationist. See: Killmonger

And every leftist Hollywood hero is an anarchist.

All you gotta do is ask an anarchist how they would protect their revolution once they've overthrown the capitalist regime. And if they are unwilling to admit that whatever state experiment they've constructed is in fact a state, then they're not worth discussing with anymore.

Baldur's Gate 3 babyyy

As a fan of the old games, this sequel really is something incredibly special. And as someone who has a difficult time committing to live D&D sessions, my itch is sufficiently scratched.
