  • I don’t want weapons sent to Nazis in Ukraine that are going to be Europe’s new flavor of domestic terrorist when the funding and weapons run dry because Europe thinks cutting all their social services is enough to do a “Slava Ukraini!” :D

    Surely this wont spawn a new generation of right-wing domestic terrorists in Europe that have an easily antagonized base already susceptible to right-wing propaganda. Not at all. Then again, the west truly sows what it reaps.





  • I already don’t give a shit what 90% of the politically illiterate say on social matters related to culture war/identity politics; why would I care about young, strong men in this matter when I already know plenty more who are already working with local orgs and are educated in Marxism or are even sympathetic to the message? Why is “young strong men” being singled out here in the first place when I’ve seen women, enbys, etc do the same amount of work?

    Sure, the guy who made a career actively talking down on women, encouraging “masculinity” and has a video of him abusing somebody is just getting smeared by the matrix. Right. Take another hit, man.



  • Nobody is saying that. If anything, they had the chance to see through these interests upon meeting a new culture and instead chose to exploit and destroy it. There is no “you have to give justification”. Never was. Instead, you have to recognize that people have precedent and reason for what they believe in. Even if it’s nonsensical as “I killed them because my dog told me too”. In the case I just quoted, it would tell you whoever said that is suffering mental distress rather than trying to think it’s a justification.

    The programming is also very, very strong. Many of us weren’t communists or socialists originally. The effort to actually get there can be near insurmountable for some people especially when you take a look at the state of critical thinking, education and overall higher-learning in the global hegemon. For Europe, it’s tradition and clinging onto the ideals of dead and gone empires.


  • There was inherent propaganda already in place from centuries of European warfare such as the Reconquista and some argument can be had that this sort of mindset came from wanting to emulate Rome and influenced by the massive continent-spanning religious institution that birthed from it. Roughly at around the same time, Europeans were beginning to “explore” Sub-Saharan Africa. There’s plenty of previous precedent that could have created “propaganda” in the mind of the settlers.
