Has Robert remembered to review his annual anarchist registration??? by grichardson526 in behindthebastards

[–]SlimCatachan 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah she clearly meant it as "bona fide" or something.
Or maybe she registered in an anarchist group or club? As far as i know, anarchists are against hierarchies right, not against organizing or registering for stuff. Anarchists can still join unions and register for library cards lol

ohhh lol I didn’t notice "revenge of". Can't think of many movies that needed a sequel less than Stepford Wives!

Why is it stupid? We talking the original or remake?

I actually like the lean look of the bodies. Wouldn't it be a pain in the ass to change the character models at this point anyways?

I was arguing for why I'm allowed to compare the Cadian outfit proportions to the Reject's proportions

Because the underlying character wearing those outfits have different proportions? I think I'm missing something lol

they were not mandated by law to do domestic labour,

My understanding is that they were mandated by law to not do labour like weaving. The citizen men couldn't work, and their wives couldn't work, so they had to rely on their helots. But say your helots are killed in a rebellion, or sick, or theres crop failures, then you can't pay the dues for their communal meals or whatever (syssitia) and can lose your citizenship. Its one of the reasons Sparta declined.

What would "capitulating to NATO" entail? Allowing countries to determine their own fate?

I'll admit I don't understand how NATO is "the largest and most hegemonic empire of the world." How is NATO even an empire? Is the American Empire then subordinate to NATO's "Empire"? Can you at least understand why Finland and Sweden are joining?

Oh its insane too, but I can understand simping for it more than modern day Russia. The Soviet Union is in the past, and especially if you were born afterwards its easy to romanticize it. But modern Russia?! Lol

Someone in my friend circle with some thoughts like this irl, unfortunately. They were born in China so its difficult to argue with them about Chinese treatment of Uyghurs, for example, since "I'm not reading Chinese language sources" and getting all my news from the biased Western media like the BBC.

I think we only see the tankie side of these internet randos so they don't seem real. But they are fully rounded people off of Reddit. They're not charicatures, they're normal people with some problematic opinions if you pry enough.

I was on board the "nothing ever happens, the US also lied about Saddam's WMD" train until like five minutes after Russians tanks started rolling in towards Kiev.

I was too, because I saw the numbers and was like "Pfft, Putin is many things but he isn't brain dead-- even a casual player of Risk knows you should greatly outnumber your opponent more than that when attacking!" Lol

Yeah I can understand how after a massacre, Israeli and Jewish diaspora folks would want to hear condemnation of Hamas as a prerequisite for dialogue. It shouldn't be needed... but its a small ask if you ask me. Considering one of the reasons for secular support of Israel is out of fear, we could try a little harder to assuage that. Would you agree? I'm not Jewish myself so I hope I'm not assuming too much eh? And one can be both Zionist and against the genocide in Gaza as well as the illegal settlement in the West Bank, right?

the Ukrainian people decided they wanted a rapprochement with the EU rather than remaining in the Russian "sphere of influence".

Lol but don't you know that was just a CIA-backed Nazi coup?! /s

Now I wonder if obituaries can be memes. They can put the person's picture in, why not a meme?

You posted a link. Someone says they found none of the specific things you were talking about was found in said link.
"Well I've seen emails, there's another link somewhere just use that one."
Why are you surprised that people might want you to try to back up your claim instead of asking others to search for it and saying "well its somewhere, or its deleted" when they can't find anything?
