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.

Would these western leftists...

Yes. The western left loves the communists who were crushed.

You would hear "Stalin would have built a much better nation than Mao did." Just like you hear about Trotsky.

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.

It needs a name. I think Gabe the Dragon suits it.

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?

So much talk about "understanding Marx" and yet they somehow miss the entire concept of Material Conditions.

Marx sure as hell didn't think we'd see full communism spring out of an agrarian Russia in a couple of decades.

I'll add that the word comes from "Ultra Left."

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.

Eventually loves it when the scrappy underdog comes out on top!

"What does that mean?"

It means he's forgotten who the president is again.
