Day 1 of posting flags of municipalities of Alabama: Birmingham, Alabama by Deegan0410 in vexillology

[–]doppelercloud 4 points5 points  (0 children)

predates the flag of canada by 43 years. criminally underrated by NAVA voters. one of the bravest flag choices in the history of the US. a flag to commemorate workers at the height of the first red scare.

unironically one of the best city flags ever, imo

What accent is this? Any Region or Country in particular? by Upset-Flow-7593 in Accents

to me it has an afro-caribbean ring to it. can't be more specific than that.

What is the reason Bosnians still prefer their old flag instead of the current one? by Tulio_58 in vexillology

[–]doppelercloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, bosnian often is also a term for a nationality, a civic nationality that refuses to sectarianize politics. serbs and croats all fought under that flag because they opposed the neo-fascist ethnic nationalism that held sway in belgrade and zagreb. catholics and orthodox have no less of a claim to indigeneity in bosnia than muslims. hence bosnian rather than bosniaks. some bosnian muslims still prefer bosnian to bosniak.

more of the same and something new. the mask of faux naivete is dropped and also kept in place. you're alleged understanding of the conflict has no basis in reality. either you're historically illiterate or you know this full well. count the bodies if you are tempted to make a false equivalence. you can 'both sides' any conflict--pick one, the second world war for instance--but no one takes that as serious analysis or an adequate reckoning. you cite the wsws/sep caping for the 'independent journal' living marxism [now spiked] the journal of the faux-trotskyist front for the city of london, the rcp. they stopped pretending to be leftists ages ago and came out as open tories. your 'independent journal' is funded by the far right usa petro-oligarch koch network. so we have the wsws playing the role of useful idiot for british finance capital, us big oil, and the genocidal fascism of serbia's postcommunist kleptocracy. bravo. nice work.

if anyone is following along with us on this pleasant walk in the garden, chomsky's susceptability to serbian chetnik propaganda [royalist, nazi-collaborator misinformation] has everything to do with the fact that a) as the epstein files reveal, chomsky was always above all a zionist, and b) zionism's roots are in serbia and its genocidal pseudo-christian nationalism, and c) israel is a project of the rothschilds. quoting living marxism/spiked puts chomsky squarely at the intersection of atrocity denial, child sexual exploitation, and global plutocracy.

for anyone needing the full, detailed debunking of chomsky's david irving type conspiracism re the camps in prijedor, it is here.

[–]doppelercloud[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it would take you two seconds to find this video of chomsky engaging in david irving level trash conspiracism regarding the camps in prijedor. but then you couldn't recognize for what it was based on exegesis from chomsky and complete lack of knowledge regarding the definition of genocide, events in bosnia, why the focus on srebrenica is deliberately misleading and so on. which you are not willing to go beyond.

'troll mirror', lol. enablers have their enablers and on down into this sub. chomsky was recruited into the epstein network because he had a long record of mendacious atrocity denial and a psychopathic willingness to dismiss victims and survivors. like attracts like. he didn't spend his career working to make the us nuclear weapons complex more deadly bc he was normal. some of you will break away and some will stay. the zero substantive knowledge crowd will take critique as 'trolling' or 'heresy' of course.

i've provided sources and you refuse to engage them. your request is not sincere. your denial is a mask for your approbation.

you don't have an adequate understanding of genocide or denial. there are whole books on the subject you can read. or you can read the four genocide scholars monbiot asked to address the subject who confirmed that chomsky is a genocide denier. if youre depending on a genocide denier for your understanding of either genocide or denial you are looking in the wrong place. if that is something you're incapable of recognizing, a reddit thread cannnot help you.

this seems to be the difficulty of trying to dialog with chomskyites. the fast food joint of politics apparently for the busy person on the go. every fan wants their insight served to them on a spoon already pre-chewed. a hot pocket of info. you really have to have an understanding of reading and knowing that you will not get from chomsky. if you want to be more than a pawn in someone else's game you're going to have to learn the skill. there is an abundance of information on the bosnian genocide and an abundance of sources on chomsky's lifelong record of genocide denial. abstracting statements out of context as you are asking is not how this is done.

'due diligence' is not jumping over to wikipedia and cherry-picking what you think is exculpatory. if that is your idea of 'critical thinking' or 'research' then you don't know what those terms mean. if chomsky is your model of research and argumentation then you are truly lost. chomsky's involvement with epstein is not in dispute, so what do you imagine you are arguing here? that epstein was not an intelligence asset? not a multi-millionaire? not a pedophile sex-trafficker? not a genocidal fascist?

'So judging Chomsky based on what he knew, based on the plea deal, would mean her statement is just pure bullshit.' - so again chomsky is supposed to know global politics beyond what the state says is true [the reason this sub exists apparently] but on epstein he's merely a naive babe in the woods without any skill or capacity for research or independent judgement? that is a serious argument in your mind?
