      So transparently an op.

      I have never seen anyone support these losers once they learn about their weird shady views, yet somehow they have more reach than anyone else on the Marxist left. Plus they get invited to weird formal shit that implies they enjoy a good degree of institutional backing for some reason.

      The CIA is losing its way.

        reminder that twitter is not real life.

        communists have, as small as it seems at times, a stronger presence in the labor movement than these swine. The main body of their handful of “official” members are dumbass know-it-all streamers and dumbass know-it-all students

      Jackson Hinkle (born September 1999) is an American political commentator and influencer[7] who hosts the web television show The Dive with Jackson Hinkle on Rumble. He is known for his support of Vladimir Putin in the Russo-Ukrainian War,[8][9][10][11] and for his opposition to Israel in the Gaza–Israel conflict.[8][9][12][13] Dubbing himself an “American Conservative Marxist–Leninist”,[14] commentators and journalists have variably described Hinkle as far-right,[13][15] right-wing,[10][16] and conservative.[17][18] Promoting a syncretic mix of conservative and communist ideas, he is a self-described proponent of “MAGA communism”, calling on those who support the working class to ally with the MAGA movement against an alleged globalist threat.[19][20] Initially an environmentalist during his high school years,[21] Hinkle has turned to promoting pro-fossil fuels stances in recent years.[14

          I just thought it made the Soviets look cooler

          I don’t see how. It makes them look disorganized, unprepared, and callous. They were desperate, yes, and some units and civilians were indeed unprepared and took extreme measures to ensure combat compliance, but they were not mindlessly throwing people at the enemy as a tactic.

      Don’t let this person distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.

    I assume they didn’t go with the Worker’s Party hamner-sickle-paintbrush because thry couldn’t find one artist who didn’t break down laughing at the GPU Gacha rolling another “Hands? What are those?” gutterball.
