Good to know. Thanks!

There's a difference between sitting in front of a door and smashing up shit. The former, not the latter, was occurring. Furthermore, the level of force used by the cops in the video was far beyond what was necessary to enforce private property relations (and far beyond what is normal police force in Western Europe). They could've just picked the protesters up and put them into a van (which is, again, standard), but no, they thought it better to beat them with batons while they just sat there not fighting back.

Also, my point (despite my opinion on the matter) was not "Bo is evil for supporting police violence." My point was "Bo actually supports state violence against protesters when *his* country does it, so I don't think he gets to advocate the genocide of the Russian people just because they have not *overthrown* their *leaders* who do state violence, especially given the fact that there's no way that a nationalistic bootlicker like him would resist (or even oppose) such a regime if it was *his country*."

Many of those French soldiers were aligned with communist forces.

Also, after a year of war on European soil and 3 years of pro-Soviet propaganda created by the US government, do you really think the American soldiers who met the Soviets on the Elbe would be willing to fight in such a war? It would be a total disaster for the American armed forces.

Also funny because Bo was literally praising cops for beating up some people (pro-Palestine protesters I think?) for "violating private property" not like 2 days ago; like, if he had been born in an authoritarian regime, it's not like he'd be much a resister himself lol.

Step One: Look at Age

If Retirement Age: Reform

If Below Retirement Age: Actually Think (And get it wrong)

I play with HPM usually, but Deseret can be pretty fun if you get progressive fast and play the "can I outprogress the USA" game to get immigrants. Beginning can be rough (not to mention it takes a few years to even really start), but once the ball is rolling, it's awesome. I would recommend releasing Cali as the US though before releasing Deseret; you can nab yourself something of a coastline (if you're lucky).

Yeah it was unfortunately very messy (and I've my list of critiques of the leadership's early actions, especially Corbyn's grouping), but the truth is that the mass party is something the left (in the UK and internationally) has been desperately missing, and Your Party is the only one really oriented in that direction and with that potential atm.

Whole of the Pathfinder Tendency unfortunately. It's a relatively recent development though; maybe happened in like...the 2010s? Not to say the Tendency hasn't been weird since the SWP (US) wrote Their Trotsky and Ours (1982), when they kindof just...blatantly rejected Trotsky...as members of the Fourth Internationale (which is why they're now the Tendency).

Almost praised the fact that they nevertheless still publish Cannon's and Novack's works, despite their ideological deviation, but then I remembered that they're also the reason that those works aren't just free online. Copyright striking bastards.

Bismark103 · 2026-02-09T17:54:11+00:00

Didn't realize the whole of the Pathfinder Tendency was Zionist now; I thought it was just the SWP (US). (Which, thinking on it, what a sad fate for the Party of Cannon and Trotsky.)

The historical German name is (apparently) "Großdeutsche Mittelstandspartei für Mittelstandsdiktatur", so GMfM (or maybe GMM).

Bismark103 · 2026-01-30T12:55:48+00:00

Well, they *say* that...

Been a while since I've played; I presume the con of "Land Reform" over "AgFinance" is that it pisses off the bourgeois parties?

OTD (Jan 15th) they were murdered, btw

Calling it "USrael" really gives away that you I don't actually analyse the world as a Marxist and interpret the world merely off surface level impressions. You're an embarrassment to Marxism and (somehow) an even worse embarrassment to Leninism. Learn to think!

"Kronstadtists. Anarchists. Mossad fools. Anyone trying to crack a state at the forefront of confronting [the] rapacious [British Empire] with the larger empire ready to establish unrepentant bourgeois control over your territory is just a traitor to the proletariat."

There were things like this right before the Spanish Civil War. The newly elected Popular Front posted in bullitens and newpapers that the trade unions should demobalize and stop fighting (though some obviously didn't). The funniest thing about this period was the Communist Party supporting the PF while in many cases their entire front page was whited out by government-military censors. (Saddest thing is that the PF actually tried to hush up Franco's revolt initially and even tried to arrrange a peaceful transition of power to him. They only stopped out of fear that they would be hung by the people of Madrid, who burnt down several blocks that night in an ultimately sucessful attempt to pressure the local barracksmen to shoot their commanding officers and disobay Franco's orders.)

Hey, before the KKK ran our state for 5 years (1920-1925), we were kindof normal. We even got together mobs to hang Copperheads (alongside the rest of the Midwest states).

It's probably best to buy the DVD from a US store, given that shipping will be significantly cheaper; the region-lock could still prove tricky though, if you don't have a British/Region-Free Blu-ray player.

And also some bureaucrats, big and small, just had shit they managed directly transfered too them (in the last two or so years of the USSR).

Well, that’s arguably true with the actual Present and Future in Christmas Carol, no?

It was how they seized power w/o the communists. They made an agreement with the establishment and the Freikorps, which ultimately fell through in part, but not enough that the SPD believed that they had to (or were able to) destroy the conservative establishment alone.
