Not to be a party pooper but we’ve seen it before. Hell, we’re seeing it right now with Kid Starver’s labor party.

Libs will claw back an unenthusiastic win, worry about The Economy ™️ (huge bankers and financiers), crack down on leftists then happily get dogwalked by conservatives with a vengeance the next cycle.

Fire the highest paid exec first and I bet you there’s at least 30 devs paid for right there

What the fuck would a non profit need to pull google level profits for?

Mozilla should have been a gatekeeper for open web standards and made a browser that catered exactly to that. The rest is window-dressing.

What did they do with the Google money, tho? Eye-watering packages for their MBA/Lawyer executives and compromise after compromise with DRM peddlers in the name of “market cap”.

Fuck em, and let it be a lesson for other non-profits. FSF doesn’t seem to be any worse off for not paying cOmPetiTiVe rAtEs to get some clueless execs to betray the mission to chase trends and funds.

The US century of humiliation getting a running start lately holy shit

We can think of a better system that the USSR or USA.

Not by listening to anarchists in the imperial core. If y’all can’t be trusted not to sling mud at the guy under whose leadership the Nazis were stopped (and who repeatedly tried to stop them before they got as powerful as they did) then I don’t trust y’all with anything else regarding politics.

In short, this isn’t a glowing report of Stalin’s achievements.

Of course it’s not. It’s an internal report by the CIA regarding the political situation in the USSR.

reflects the legacy of Stalin’s crackdowns on dissent and internal opposition

Oh no, if only they’d let CIA agents run amok in the name of freedom and democracy.

Neon by John Mayer

Cool story tankie, have you considered that lalalalalalala I can’t hear you

Implying US companies being racist/sexist/homophobic is just because of the foreigners lmao

Now, now, Rome didn’t fall in a day

I don’t mean it to be a perfect analogy, I just found it funny that these are two idiots enacting big sweeping changes in political or economic organization that are likely to end up killing the host. Gorbachev’s USSR died at the hands of the US and its puppets while in the US capital seems to be cannibalizing itself.

I disagree, it’s a very good thing. USians have had ample time to reckon with their fascist government, but since the price was being paid by minorities and people abroad, not enough of y’all listened or cared. The rot took hold, the violence was turned inward like Malcolm X warned and when the US dies the world will immediately be better for it.

Of course, provided they don’t do the ghoulish shit only they and Israel would, nuking us all out of spite.

Libs when free, open source, distributed and community supported platforms are not made by people who love capitalism and corporations 🤯🤯🤯🤯

The non-aggression pact that was signed well after Nazi germany had signed pacts with Britain and France? The one that was signed after Stalin’s pleas for an alliance against Hitler’s Germany fell on deaf ears because Western powers were still dreaming that Germany would attack the USSR first and succeed where they’d failed immediately after the 1917 revolution? That one?

Historically illiterate westerners read a single fucking line and memorize it and think that’s an earth-shattering gotcha like we haven’t seen your cookie cutter shit a hundred times. Serious socialists who actually read history can contextualize history, and I’ll repeat it: fuck anyone who diminishes the sacrifices of the Soviet Union against the Nazi tide, it’s barely notch above outright holocaust denial.

all anti-fascist literature was removed from libraries along with general line of censorship to praise nazis after the pact.

Back up your claims with a serious source. I’m sure such a comically extraordinary claim will have hard evidence behind it and not just a vibe.

Libs think 1984 is a non fiction book and Stalin had people killed unless they exposed their belly and peed themselves in front of him

All the love for the USSR from them is just nostalgia for the times when they were carefree kids

Yeah bro only enlightened westerners are smart enough to recognize why they preferred a certain economic and political system, dumb easterners just want ice cream. They definitely didn’t have a better political education than you. Hell, they probably didn’t even read Animal Farm!

Fucking chauvinists I stg.

The world owes Stalin and the people of the USSR a debt that can never be repaid for being the only country to try to stop Nazi Germany before the war and the country which bore the brunt of the casualties and hardship.

Any “socialist” who shit talks them is suspicious as fuck in my book, chauvinist at the very best and probably a snitch.

Khrushchev was an opportunist piece of shit and the world would have been better if he had been kicked out of the party.

42, obviously

??? All media has a biased take, not even machines are free of bias. If you don’t recognize that NBC/CNN/NYT/WaPo is even more biased than any independent author you’re not paying any attention to the content, just the editorialized language of fake neutrality designed to fool people who care more about the appearance of factuality than factuality itself.

I’m begging people to stop judging the information by how “reliable” a site looks. Look at the sources.

On that same note, also stop treating sites as “reliable” in and of themselves, look at their sources too. You’ll stop falling for so much of the “he says she says” bullshit that US media peddles.

I’m asking you once again to remain with the democratic party

–“socialist” “independent” (lmao) Bernie Sanders
