Y’all, this is a vendor’s display.

some flag vendors will sell any flag, regardless of what it means or what connotations it might carry, and often won’t know a damn thing about the flags they’re selling. They just want money.

Hillary won the popular vote and liberals still scold people for not voting for her.

war crimes are inevitable, but the USSR’s crimes in WWII pale in comparison to that of the other “winners”. The worst they did was some executions of officers. Meanwhile, Dwight D. Eisenhower personally gave the order for German POWs in his prison camps to be starved.

what in the sam fuck are they talking about?

If you have a local homeless shelter or food bank, that’s the best place to donate to imo.

libs last year: “It’s important for RBG to survive until Biden can take the office, since only the president can appoint judges and her replacement will likely hold the position for a few decades”

libs now: “we have to vote so this’ll never happen again”

The dems really are a one-trick pony.

The electoral college is the sole body that chooses who becomes president? whatever, just vote blue.

The SCOTUS is an unelected body of term limitless judges, who usually spend the rest of their lives in the position and can only be removed via impeachment, but are appointed by the acting president? so what, just vote blue.

Systematic oppression that’s over a hundred years in the making and has proven that it can’t just be easily gotten rid of? cool beans, just vote blue.

If you believe Africa would’ve been more peaceful with Nigeria being whole, Nigeria would be the “good” side. If you believe African nations have a right to form based on what they want, Biafra would be the “good” side. But this was a grey area war, you could argue either side as wrong and be somewhat right.

To explain for people with no idea what this is about, it’s the Nigerian civil war. After Nigeria was given independence from France in 1960, the ethnic-secessionist state of Biafra split out from Nigeria in 1967, citing the massacre of the Igbo people by the Nigerian government as their justification for independence. Those who supported Biafra but weren’t a Catholic nation did so to preserve peace in the region. Catholics supported Biafra, as they saw it as a bastion of their faith in west Africa. Those who supported Nigeria either did so because they believed their support would preserve peace, because their nation had an anti-Catholic sentiment, or because Nigeria was a strategic partner.

The Soviet backing of Nigeria is seen as an end of the Soviet-Internationale, as the Khrushchev government pivoted to a more liberal view of the third world. To explain the one really weird outlier on that side of the conflict, I believe the Soviets before Khrushchev would have supported Biafra as China did.

Israel switched sides, because Biafra would have had Nigeria’s oil supply had they won.

The whole war was a clusterfuck, but it’s a great example of how the western nations mettle in African affairs for a wide range of reasons, from “peacekeeping” to the fanatical preservation of faith.

an end to cultural colonialism and the capitalist “grindset”? fuck yeah, sign me up.

love when they show how little they know of history, especially when they want to force others to agree with their viewpoint.

they’re probably like 16, tbh

POC: “hey uh, give us our land back, colonizer”

white liberal: “you must be a nazi”

oh boy, posting online that you’re paying $1000 monthly as disposable income is not the flex I expected to see today.

“China is killing people for being MUSLIM and the Muslims are HELPING”

When the police wear surplus military kit, carry surplus military rifles, have surplus military vehicles, and are often backed up by the national guard, you have to ask yourself just how “civilian” they really are.

The US doesn’t have a centralized national police force? yeah fuckin’ right.

people are going to miss that the poster is Marxist-Leninist, and this tweet is mocking Anarchists.

Their fatal flaw is assuming that cults are inherently hierarchical, which isn’t true. Though it’s true that most popular cults do revolve around a prominent figure who is provided power (I.E. the cult leader), there are plenty of cults centred around documentation, philosophy, etc. and don’t exhibit a clear power structure.

I’m not going to say Anarchism is a cult, but it is not diametrically opposed to cultish behaviour. This can be seen on full display on the online left and their dogmatic approach to dialectics.

You can also argue that literally all politics are “cultish”, because the qualifier for something being a cult is defined as “a group or movement held together by a shared commitment to a charismatic leader or ideology. It has a belief system that has the answers to all of life’s questions and offers a special solution to be gained only by following the leader’s rules.” If Anarchists are going to argue that we’re cultists for our upholding of Marxist philosophy and scientific socialism, then they should look in a mirror, because they do the same with Anarchist philosophy.

you just know this was made by an American who gets all of their political literacy from 4Chan, Reddit, and Twitter.

The first pride was a riot where trans black women bricked cops in the Greenwich Village of Manhattan, in front of the Stonewall Inn. The LGBT movement existed before it, but essentially grew out of the riot, and that’s the justification many have for including minority races within the LGBTQIA+ flag. But, many say the inclusion makes it nothing more than a minority flag, and thus belittles it. People can argue over which side is right, but imo that argument distracts from the far more important things to focus on… such as trans women being one of the most common minorities to be murdered.

This is a picture of Marsha P. Johnson, who is claimed to have started the riot
