Luxemburg and Liebknecht were killed by social democrats, the SPD (essentially the same politics as AOC, Bernie, nordic countries, etc, typical Jacobin stans), who later enabled Hitler to take power or something like that (someone please correct me if I’m wrong)

took me a while to realize they were talking about veterans and not veterinarians

aye matey

PM Press just published a second edition of Gabriel Kuhn’s Life Under The Jolly Roger , which analyzes pirates as gender/race diverse intersectional nomadic outlaws from a marxist/anarchist lens (also persistent 25% off code “stick25”) (libgen link if you want also)

Also gay marriage and relationships were common among pirates, called “matelotage” (from the french word for sailor, matelot). Matelot partners shared their loot and should one of them die at sea, the ship would pay the surviving partner the deceased’s fair share. Hence the origin of the term “matey”.

They just killed him because objectivism good, egalitarian (technocracy tho) bad

And in the sequel, it’s the same thing but also confronting public reliance on supers is not worth addressing because the person bringing up the argument is secretly evil dun dun dunnnnnn

Yeah, that’s a good point about Rorschach at the end; had he just shrugged his shoulders and said that it was for the best, it would have been a better show of how he views the necessity of genocidal actions if they lead to his wanted outcomes.

Would have been funny if he had asked Ozymandias why he didn’t just kill all the brown and communist people.

Also, interesting info about the show, haven’t watched it, maybe I should…

I mean, you’re supposed to not praise him as an actual hero, since he spends the entire book harassing, assaulting, and looking down on working class and poor folks for no reason other than they are poor and not “American” while simultaneously hating himself and his upbringing for not being fascist/nationalist enough and not being rich like Ozymandias.

Reminds me of how he wrote Rorschach as a unimaginably far right-wing objectivist/nationalist take on Steve Ditko characters (e.g. The Question), and when critics hailed the character as the greatest Watchmen character, Moore declared the book a failure of art.

Good work. What’s the list of films?

also c/movies?
