The destruction of Twitter would be the biggest defeat of nazism since WW2

MLPD is very dogmatic and sectarian. They also have a very weird stance on Israel. They condemn zionists' action, but at the same time admit that Israel has a right to exist (?). Typical Germans lol

I don't know much about DKP however

Few years later we will be seeing Mélenchon crown himself as an emperor

I think what's more fitting for her is an account that promotes uyghur genocide news, as in the show she protests in favor of "Free TIbet". But she would definitely be a very annoying lib too. In one episode she literally becomes a Hillary-like female president to show how PROGRESSIVE murica has become

Tbh what I hate in Simpsons is that Lisa is shown as a very progressive person, while she is just a chauvinistic liberal lol

Stalin/Mao forced poor women to go to school and get educated, rather than make babies

Happy new year

Losurdo is peak - that's the book that actually got me into reading more about Stalin. Malcolm X is probably very good too, but I don't really know about John Reed.

I only have good memories with Rummikub tbh

Sometimes, I like to play Rummikub and Ticket to ride, but I don't play as often as I used to

Nice, you interested in numismatics?

Tbh to me the most common "western socialists" beliefs are:

• recognize Cuba is a socialist state, doesn't do the same for DPRK, Vietnam and China
• Marx, Engels, Lenin (sometimes), Che Guevara good, Stalin and Mao bad
• "not true socialism"
• idealizes failed revolutions like german revolution
• against "totalitarianism" and "authoritarianism"

typical KKKanada

Lots of things you described are similar in my country, my parents at least have a bit of decency and don't talk about their politics all the time. I'm still very sorry for your situation and I hope it will get better

One question, do Romanians actually recognize their own participation in the holocaust?

I am very sorry for your dad. My parents praised Uganda's and Russia's policies towards LGBT people, so I kinda relate

When I talked to my dad about Palestine he just said that "arabs and jews are natural enemies" and "they will always fight". When I watched a play on TV about polish antisemitic campaign in 1968 they got annoyed and said the jews "deserved it" (literally). Unfortunately I don't see a way to change my parents' views on things like that

Yeah my parents are cooked when it comes to their political views. They got extremely conservative when I got older and right now it got to a point where my mum started to doubt vacinnes' efficency. My parents also believe in a fuckton of conspiracy theories, think that liberals in my country are "communists" and are generally racist and prejudiced in every way imaginable.

The only good think I can think of when it comes to their political views is that they oppose Israel, but they don't oppose Israel because they feel bad for Palestine and are actually anti-imperialist. They just oppose zionists because they don't like jews

The butcher of Indonesia

I haven't really thought about it this way. thanks for the advice

I kinda think that I still have to grasp that christmas is about friends we made along the way socializing, not gifts and presents. I'm a person that's not really that into buying anything for myself and others and that's what I focused on the most before
