The Azov and the neo-nazi international are analogous to the muhajadeen in Afghanistan during the 1970/80s.
Great point by Chomsky. :chomsky-yes-honey:
I wonder what he thinks about his "the fall of the Soviet Union was a win for socialism" take now.
How did that work out, Chumpsky?
"Sure people are being butchered by the thousands, but at least nobody is telling them what to do authoritarianly."
The "rules based international order" that choms likes to bring up so much is just a proxy phrase for "the american empire". The "rules based international order" is run from washington the same way the Roman empire was run by Rome.
It is also an incredibly fashy phrase when you think about it closely.
The reason they say "rules based international order" and not "international law" is because the former is vague, made up, bullshit whereas the latter is unenforceable bullshit, but at least very clearly defined.
If you say “international law” too often people start to get mad when you break international law
In fairness to the feds, the Azov people are definitely on their side (:agony-shivering:)
Just wait until Ukraine loses and Azov fires a HIMARS missile into a Polish apartment block because muh stab in the back.
My plan is to die in the water wars before I get that old.
:chomsky-yes-honey: honestly looks p good for his age. Can still groom his hair & beard well.
because of takes like this chomsky is being called a tankie omfg
Chomsky blinking in and out like a broken cursed animantronic doll at the end of a horror movie.
Hey he’s stealing a point I made when the war started and we started sending weapon shipments
Ah, but did you publish it in a peer-reviewed journal?
Bit idea: hexbear should start its own scientific journal so that if people try to use hexbear-specific memes or concepts, they gotta cite it academically Lmao.
someone is going to realize i write and post similarly, and if I get asked about things I say on this site in an academic context I will pass away on the spot.
your body is in constant pain and none of your shit works right. its just a lot of effort
He's just old, anyone saying otherwise needs to touch grass immediately.
Wdym people are fallible and not eternal engines of materialist analysis who keep having theory-correct takes constantly?
Besides, Chomsky doesn't mind having his bad takes on the record. His debate w/Foucault is proof of that
He has always had a western chauvinistic take when it comes to AES countries like the average white leftist in the west.
Mostly just the Soviet Union and maybe China as far as I know. He's always been pretty supportive of Cuba, Venezuela and most other AES as far as I know. I think he always had a type of brainworm where he can see that Cuba's shortcomings are mainly are due to US terrorism against them but can't see the same thing about the USSR. He calls Lenin a right opportunist lol.
Holding communists to the same moral standards as capitalists isn't being a fed.
I was gonna post this yesterday but I was tired, thanks comrade :rat-salute-2:
