what's crazy to me is that tankies, in all their glorious revolution talk: ACAB, eat the rich, no one with money can be moral... not a single thought is given to the "after." do they honestly think that the leaders of their "glorious" revolution won't come out of it disgustingly rich using heavy police tactics to control dissent themselves? or dead if they don't dance to that music?

Kids shouldn't be adopting the names of their parents at all because that's a remnant of ancient slave society and exists to tacitly uphold the existence of children as property.

women changing their last name to their husband’s should not be normalized anymore

"I am not tolerant. I do not tolerate fascism." -Pedro Lemebel

Today would be the 72nd birthday of Chilean artist and queer comrade Pedro Lemebel, who fought tirelessly for queer inclusion in the fight against the dictatorship of Pinochet.

You can read his formative novel, My Tender Matador, here for free on the Internet Archive.

Except Hitler was friendly with the Allied powers up until the moment war broke out, and even then it was considered a toss-up which side the US would join; and even after that was settled many in the US bourgeoisie maintained close ties with the Nazis! It took a full-blown crisis of capitalism to break the Hitler/Churchill friendship, and then once the war was settled, so many lower ranking Nazis (and Italian and Japanese fascists, fwiw) retained their government posts on friendly terms with the US. Don’t let the Captain America movies trick you into thinking that the US/Nazi divide was so vast, or that the Nazi/Soviet divide was so narrow.

WWII aside, liberals and fascists have consistently worked together to oppose communism, and the DPRK is on the other side of this alliance because it’s communist. I’ll have you know that I read Marx often and extremely well. Why don’t you for the love of god pull your head out of the CIA’s ass?

The thing is that if Kim Jong Un really was a total dictator who cared only about power and cruelty, it would be so much easier for him to ally with the US and be just like the Gulf monarchs or Pol Pot or one of the other million of criminals on Washington’s payroll. Recent wars have demonstrated very blatantly that US puppet leader is a great job for someone whose primary passions are killing babies and threatening their neighbors with nukes. For heads of state looking to sell out their people, Washington is the top buyer.

Literally what is there to be gained from the DPRK’s “isolationist” policies other than the security of its people?!

did you take a class on marxism or did you read excerpts carefully selected for you by your teacher who thought marx was a little too emotional?

We, as a society need to start stigmatizing being a communist the same as how we stigmatize being a nazi, I'm sick of this shit.
