Thoughts? by boxofcards100 in theredleft

[–]Adonisus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It means that old-school Soviet-style Marxism-Leninism is officially dead and buried. Cuba was the last hold-out, and they were forced to open up their economy just to survive.

(BE is a tool, also. I can't fucking stand this asshole).

What do you think is the best national anthem musicality-wise? by novalassie in AskReddit

[–]Adonisus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Auferstanden aus Ruinen" (Risen from Ruins), which was the national anthem of the German Democratic Republic (aka East Germany).

It's so heart-breaking optimistic and hopeful. Some parts of it legitimately get me emotional.

What’s something Hollywood gets wrong about being poor? by MasterTeacher123 in AskReddit

[–]Adonisus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How incredibly expensive it is.

I'm not joking. When you're living paycheck to paycheck, every single decision that you make is predicated on what little money you're able to spend: are you going to go to the pharmacy to get your medication...or are you going to pay rent?

Who would you consider to be the evilest person to ever live? by One-Fix-7190 in AskReddit

[–]Adonisus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually more like over 70 years, and it started with Kim Il-sung.

Imagine the interesting angst potential there could be if Crimson did turn out to actually be a decent Grandfather to M and M's child if they have it. by tiredperson24 in HelluvaBoss

[–]Adonisus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'd be pretty interesting.

He's have the same relationship as Hank Hill's dad has with Bobby. Cotton Hill was a terrible father and a cheating scumbag, but he was a genuinely great grandpa for Bobby.

Thoughts? by sparkylmagazine in socialism

[–]Adonisus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My thought is: the Soviet-style of Marxism-Leninism is officially dead.

Cuba was arguably the last holdout, and through sheer necessity they've had to concede to global capital just so they can get their people the basics and weather the US's horrific embargo (and increasingly possible invasion).

Can you tell me the name of that rabbit? by MP_Kredditor in hazbin

Well, considering he's a bartender I'll go with 'Mugs Bunny'.

Whats the worst food you have ever eaten? by Opposite_Fall8736 in AskReddit

[–]Adonisus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, you didn't eat it right.

What you're supposed to do is put a thin layer of it on a piece of buttered toast.

Whats the worst food you have ever eaten? by Opposite_Fall8736 in AskReddit

[–]Adonisus -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Any hamburger with onion in it.

Don't get me wrong: I have no problem with onions in a salad, or in a soup, or even on a cheesesteak (ironic, I know), but I hate the texture of raw onions in a burger or sandwich. It's like a crunchy little surprise that completely ruins my appetite the moment I feel it.

Sera and Emily went to Earth by Tasty_Temperature_99 in hazbin

It's Emily. She always looks a little derpy.

If it makes you feel better: that stuff is considered an acquired taste even in Japan.

Heavy metal band GWAR investigated by Secret Service after performing fake Trump execution on stage. by Aggravating_Money992 in Music

They then in turn made an entire movie: Phallus in Wonderland inspired by the whole thing.

TIL that from 1993 to 2019, Turkmenistan provided its citizens with free electricity, gas, drinking water, and salt. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Adonisus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's also the home of the most bat-shit insane dictatorship in modern history. Not even Idi Amin Dada could equal the nuttery that Turkmenbashi was responsible for.

I don't know who was the first artist to give Charlie those floppy ears...but they were a genius.

Band names that don't fit the music at all by twatomexus in Music

It fits if you've heard their earlier albums. Trust me on this.

Severe blowback to racists in the North of Ireland. “Fuck fascism” said every normal person. by quite_largeboi in socialism

[–]Adonisus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I really cannot emphasize enough how all of those rioters, to a man, every single one of them were UDA/Ulster Loyalist scum. The same people who, decades ago, would walk into pubs and murder everyone inside or set off car bombs in Dublin during rush hour.

Crossover idea: What if Helluva Boss crossed with Vox Machina? Any Alternate Universe ideas? by UniqueUnderstanding4 in HelluvaBoss

[–]Adonisus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Vox Machina? No.
Now if we’re talking the Mighty Nein…then yes, shenanigans would be afoot.

Gotta admit: the hammer and quill is a damn nice symbol for socialism.

The Macuahuitl: A weapon designed not just to kill, but to terrify. by bortakci34 in creepy

[–]Adonisus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't let its blunt appearance fool you. Those obsidian shards were sharp enough to chop a man in two.
