“Excitement during the concert shall results being fired out of a cannon into the Sun”, says Kim Jong-un.

I get that. That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the clarification.

Like I say, I’m not hopeful. But little bits of information leaking out puts the MSM in a position where they can’t deny that these guys aren’t Marvel superhero good guys.

Is Russia going to unchain its bankers or spread its corporations into Ukraine?

If we view Russia as trying to establish its sphere of influence in Ukraine as installing a pro-Russian leader, I could see Russia sweeping in to capture the natural resources. Wheat and oil would be the two biggest resources.

In other aspects, we might not view Russia as an imperialist power. But you can definitely argue that they fulfill some of Lenin’s description.

Rest in power, Maurice Bishop.

They’re right, there is no neutrality on this.

Down with all Nazis. Down with NATO. Down with America.

Drawing a mock-up of an even more comically large spoon.

I’m guessing it’s an old fashion way of saying “come to a peace agreement”, but it was presumably used in a war game and that means the history understanders use that term instead.

Wiki says that sue in this case means plead, so I guess I’m right on the first part.

BAM, magic Communism. Marx, Engels, and Lenin are all proved to be revisitionists by virtue of China magicing Communism into existence.

According to liberal theory, senicide is what will lead to a liberal utopia, isn’t it? “When the old conservatives die, the forward thinking liberal elite will take their place”, a fitting cop out for actually doing anything to improve the world around you.

You usually filter out the content some way or other; IP-blocking, sanitizing the incoming traffic, firewall rules, etc. Depends on what OVH does, I don’t know much about them.

I’ve had the joy of disowning a family member who became a landlord. “I don’t like thieves” wasn’t received well by my largely politically disinterested relatives.

Get them all in the pit basement.

It’s just skiddies. Anyone with even a little bit of technical prowess would opt for pretty much anything over (D)DoS-ing, especially with the abundance of wiper viruses coming out of Russia right now. Wouldn’t be that hard to capture a sample and go wild.

I don’t know if I’m going mad, but all non-pro-Ukrainian talking points are coming from the far-right in America. If you’re pointing out the Nazi problem, you’re in line with Fox News. If you’re pointing out corruption in Ukraine, you’re in line with the alt-righters.

If I didn’t know better, I might say it’s the propagandists associating left-wing thought with reactionaries and weaponising America’s sports team political culture.

The Isle of Man, a small country intentionally starved for decades by the English and the Scottish until it turned itself into a money laundering service for the worldwide bourgeoisie.

Just a reminder that knowingly launching a DDoS attack or otherwise knowingly tampering with a computer you don’t own is illegal in many countries.

Going to be honest, I just wanted to make a “Harry Potter is liberal theory” joke.
