    Zizek is such a weird and interesting person i don’t even think he’s a communist but in the west he has a huge influence over the scene

    He’s not a communist just a Marxist who’s too far down the rabbit hole

    Also solving scarcity doesn’t just mean giving everyone every luxury like an iPhone or a car or an air fryer and paving everything to accommodate it

    Filipino dude sounds like Zizek

    and he said that the military should crackdown on Communists and they should be outlawed

    comments are woated as expected

    "I mean anyone would be cautious & defensive against any ideology if its members are running around the countryside and provoking it's citizens."

    However, the Derg was split between then-temporary chair Colonel Mengistu and a faction allied against him, which limited his control. This rivalry was resolved at the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Derg on 3 February 1977, at which fifty-eight top Derg officers were killed in an hour-long shootout. Seven of these officers were opponents of Mengistu, including chairman and Lieutenant General Tafari Benti, Captain Almayahu Haile, Captain Mogas Wolde Mikael, and Lt. Colonel Asrat Desta, the latter being an avowed Marxist-Leninist. Mengistu said "We are doing what Lenin did. You cannot build socialism without Red Terror."

    Stupidpol in a nutshell

    Stupidpol are really just mildly socially conservative American social democrats – their loyalties are firmly with the empire, they just want a bigger slice of the pie from their ruling-class masters

    Gregg Popovich was asked how Nikola Jokic has “revolutionized” the modern big man, and the coach answered as only he can: “When I think of revolution, I think of people like Che Guevara, Ivan Illich, Lenin… I don’t really think of Jokic as quite a revolutionary. So I think you’re a bit hyperbolic there."

    "a more left wing approach to neoliberalism"

    just hell with a little welfare mixed in

    Camila Vallejo, his advisor, is a communist though

    I don't think it's fair to call the guy a neoliberal though, he seems to be on the left-wing of social democracy which isn't so bad
