Lather, rinse, repeat

Code pink ftw

The country with all the oil (also gold ultimately) was aggressively pressured by usa to try to generate more western influence in the area, what a shock

DPRK strategy to deter usa, reminds me of poison dart frogs

I imagine either Kim Il Sung or perhaps more likely given the era he lived in Kim Jong Il has written about or perhaps more likely just alluded to this.

Naturally nations in the crosshairs of the evil empire inarguably need things to deter it from aggression.

But when they do so the DPRK and others get labeled the bad guy.

Noone faults poison dart frogs.

Yay

There are so many positive elements of this post to highlight but idk it just makes me happy.

Ibby Traoré highlighting a nuanced element of western hegemony

Our capacity to process trauma is so fragile and can be manipulated so easily, so healthy to get a handle on these things.

Feels like he's alluding to traitors too, politicians who take bribes to keep african resources in western control for instance.

Piercing insight as always either way ultimately.

These two tolkien images alone capture most of what western culture is

The Sauron eye maybe the third, idk exactly but. Or some attempt by the monarchy to manipulate everyone into thinking they are decent. Tolkien was ofc writing about mostly german fascism but he didn't realise he summed up england and the west in general.

Around the 5 year anniversary of China holding kkkanada accountable for their evil

They clearly exaggerated the situation in Xinjiang to and distract and 'both sides' the issue when their evil was brought to light. As soon as left leaning western settlers stop thinking about indigenous oppression they'll drop the narratives about Uyghur muslim folks. Same delusional template as always.

Xinjiang full of mosques, etc.

Joma lives forever

Simultaneously stoking the flames of international chauvinism in order to distract the proletariat from the true oppressor, may I so humbly add

People like Psy (gangnam style) are interesting. Definitely no comrade. But some superb efforts to criticize us imperialism, like some of his lyrics when translated...

Oppan Gangnam Seutail

*doing the dance*

😎

Ofc cowardly usa tried to play themselves off as the victims in order to suppress valid critique as they typically do.

Pure unhinged evil.

Yet another reason why usa tries to constantly slander the DPRK: Kim Il Sung thread on how usa violently plundered & manipulated them, with the typical imperialist template

Every accusation from usa to the DPRK is either a confession or in this case moreso a distraction and or a manipulative tactic to try and psychologically launder their evil, to try to obsessively paint DPRK as wildly unreasonable when they're overwhelmingly the opposite, to maintain hegemony.

Western imperialists template:

Christianity used as manipulative tactic

If it doesn't work then extreme violence

Plunder absurd amounts of wealth

Set up proportionally tiny charities

Obsessively manipulate the narratives

Evil.

The west are the vampires of the world.

Stalin was so good at getting to the crux of the matter

Unfortunately hg wells was mostly trash, a quintessential western social fascist on so many levels, manipulative controlled opposition. But at least the interview produced this quote. So.

Liberalism coopting us in increasingly unique ways. They post mostly tankie content. But their irl praxis is all about controlled opposition.

When they randomly posted about zohran a year ago I muted them for 30 days and hoped it was just due to a meltdown or something. I could somewhat understand for instance if BIPOC comrades in usa were so trauma exhausted from the last 10 years that any glimmer of hope could lead to a temporary impulsive lapse. But apparently not the case.

It's a bit odd in that they post some very unique opinions that don't really align with tankie positions. So idk exactly. At very least liberalism coopting us, not necessarily a liberal, I guess.

A bit peculiar.

Mostly just frustrating.

It reminds me of Do The Right Thing in 1989 how it highlights racism then has zero constructive message of praxis, just "don't be violent!!" when violence is extremely justified. That movie ofc coopting liberal controlled opposition. This almost certainly is too.

A single block can do so much. Until it's removed. 😉

As always it's well documented Stalin tried to prevent it and provided relief, the ukrainian ruling class tried to persist in famine paradigms and harmed relief efforts as is typical, etc.

Loanga (now part of 🇨🇬&🇬🇦) was plundered for centuries, then it withered, then dissolved during the 'scramble for africa'. The land taken by france. The plunder funneled to europe.

By all accounts pre colonial Africa was on par with europe, further ahead in many regards and just more sensible in many regards too. It's so obvious the continent was overwhelmingly manipulated into what it is today, with european 'progress' largely requiring blood soaked plunder. Extremely vicious process on so many levels.

On 'brainwashing' as it were

My post from fb ultimately

Looking into how power lust alters the brain is really interesting

Much like how cortisol changes how we think

One of the most important realities in human history

The Red Banner is on fb and likely other socmed and are ofc much farther left than socdem

Idk if that was overly clever but

Anyhow
