      Don't you love a conscientious internet rights org that pushes for Western tech companies to be able to ignore China's internet regulations & allow people to organize pogroms

          197 people died 1,721 injured

          That precipitated the "great firewall"

          Also for instance the only thing Meta does to stop Hindutva bastards from organizing lynchings on WhatsApp is turn off forwarding sometimes

            the great firewall definitely predates that, but thats very interesting history that I didnt know about. the dead roughly 2/3 Han and 1/3 reportedly "moderate"/non-separatist uyghurs. I knew there were incidents but nothing this big

            obscene that there were such strenuous complaints about arrests being made when 200 people were killed in such a short time

              People also tried to act like the police easily taking down the train station stabbing maniacs was some kind of authoritarian brutality. Gee, that would be nice when we have school shootings. Instead of cops just waiting until they get a high score

    Shortly after Oct 7, Malema was talking about how he wanted to help arm Hamas. Not offer general support, actually sending them guns and shit. Maybe he’a problematic in other areas but he’s an absolute chad in my book.

      Malema is pro-China, pro-landback, pro-trans, and pro-communism. What more do you want? I think he’s awesome.

      Everyone loves fascism until someone suggesting doing fascist shit right back to the fascists.

      EFF is awesome for exposing CHUD hypocrisy. Like, unironically, I don't want any random-ass white people being ethnically cleansed. I'm a certified cracker and I hope after the revolution, no one does a war crime by deporting me to anti-italian-action. But it sure is interesting how CHUDs talk about the glory of war, how ethnostates are all wholesome chungus...until the global south starts replicating white people tactics.

      It's honestly pretty chilling how they believe in no bad tactics, but bad targets.

        I mean, pasta, wine, nice beaches, I'd kinda be okay with my cracker ass getting sent there.

        Thing is I'd get deported to the cloudy land of potatoes and sheep.

          Oh, don't get me wrong. Under normal conditions I'd be fine, it's just that Meloni is PM right now.

            Actually it'd be a toss up between southern Ireland and the German Lowlands, so I'd either end up eating potatoes and beer or salted fish and beer.

    EFF seems based but ngl I think their name is kinda mid. Why not just be the communist party or something? Economic Free Fighters sounds like an AnCap group name.

      I find their name incredibly funny. It's like reverse national socialist card "it's in the name!".

      In Polish it sounds even funnier, "Ruch Bojowników o Wolność Gospodarczą", 100% libertarian name, but no libertarian here even have the balls to name their party like that. Polish wiki cites their ideology as: "national left, anticapitalism, marxism-leninism, panafricanism".

      There is already a communist party so they cant use that name, and they werent originally communists so any communist like name wouldnt have made much sense back then.

        Okay, but, putting the word "Economic" in your name just sounds nerdy. Call yourself the "Liberation Front" or something cool sounding.

            That'd at least be edgy. It ain't like southern Africa doesn't have a lot of commie groups with cool names. Zimbabwe African National Union, Zimbabwe African People's Union, People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola, Mau Mau, Spear of the Nation.

                Werent those two Zimbabwean parties mortal enemies until the united front happened against Rhodesia? And one of them was Maoist and the other was more orthodox ML and wanted to recruit among the urban proletariat, except Rhodesia had very few of those and quite a lot of angry peasants / landworkers.

              I thought Mau Mau was a name the Bri*ish imposed on Kenyan resistance groups rather than a name they used themselves?

                Apparently the main revolutionary who said this also said they claimed it as their own. All the possible origins are really neat, and it seems pretty clear the British didn't create the name but rather chose it from the movement's phrases or someplace local as a means of denying the KFLA name which would imply political legitimacy.

                Which KFLA also sounds cool as hell when said phonetically

            Has a distinctly "Not Fuckin Around Coalition" energy to it that I appreciate. Shame that NFAC had some uh. Nasheed-adjacent ideas; they might've been the only hard-radical formation I knew of that Amerika had.
