Attention Kmart Shoppers…
The maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry.

great pic by the AP, open mouthed, aggressive angry, pointing and the lighting makes his eyes look like empty sockets of vantablack space, where all love and humanity go to die.
lol, “looks like” just playin’

he’s a real VIKING of following the rules written by rich people!

no, this is what happens monetary policy is the only tool in the neoliberal toolbox, corporate profiteering is unchecked, and 2 million workers die off to keep the rent checks coming.
not sure a social collapse is something that can be identified in real time, but rather a point identified by historical analysis at a later date to say, “this was the point of no return for the hegemonic order and its property relations” and it may be something like a persistent government shutdown that sees many programs never recover administratively/fall into corruption, a court ruling, a moment of political violence, etc. basically the single moment in a chain of events undermining the social order beyond which recovery is impossible.

I can’t believe Putin went back in time just to get Trudeau to wear blackface in public several times.
these sneaky Russians and their constant stream of propaganda Ws.
to be fair, if i were the little lordling running a troubled, fragmenting island and visiting a global superpower, i would make some kind of announcement about how i’m going over there and really going to stick it to those motherfuckers, expecting to be met with throngs of hooting idiots below the parapet.
and then, once over there and behind closed doors i would tell them they can piss on me for $100 and if they want to kiss me on the lips its $150.
that’s just old school statecraft.
imo, the dishonesty is less about the size and more about how all the toppings look fresh on the menu, while in person they look like aged out grocery store culls and the burger always looks like someone put it between their ass cheeks and then watched a Peter Jackson movie before serving it.
i don’t really really get how one articulates that in a lawsuit.
i never really noticed it besides the hack bit in Falling Down until i went to a mcdonalds in japan. every item on the menu came out like a goddamn prop for a promotional photo. surreal. kinda made me realize that unless you’re willing to fork over a day’s median wage or more in the US for a prepared meal or go to some mom and pop place that gives a shit, you’re gonna get fuck you food from someone being paid a poverty wage to slop together utility-tier ingredients because screwing over the customer and the worker is what makes rich people more money.
weird how “gay panic” is a defense allowed by the courts, but an appeal to jury nullification is not.

a lot of counties in the cotton belt have looked like this since pre-civil war, when all men of the white minority were required, by law, to be armed and trained to assist in suppressing any slave insurrection. after the civil war, there was considerable upheaval in these places that the powerful minority had to suppress. incarceration, political violence, state terror were all financed and deployed to prevent the new majority of enfranchised black americans from accessing state power or making common cause with broke whites.
on the left, we talk a lot about the foucalt’s boomerang of imperial tactics of oppression returning from the colonies to the metropole as fascism. but there is literature out there articulating the unique laboratory of settler states engaging in exploitation and resource extraction informing later imperial policy. i.e. The South (of the US) functioned as an experimentation site for the US to sharpen its claws in developing extractive, exploitative political projects to export abroad.
the national forgetting of this place and its critical history (and its rich history of violent insurrection against capitalism) allows its legacy and function as a political project to continue to this day. make no mistake, the suppression of “Critical Race Theory” and larger suppression of history education in the south is just as much about forgetting what came before as it is about keeping the lid on today and into the future. think about how many meat packers and industrial concerns have relocated to The South in the last 100 years, where unionization rates are always in the toilet for some mysterious reason. i’m sure it has nothing to do with the police being given wide latitude for violence and strike breaking. the large, diverse and exploited labor force is still here, under the boot of capital.
the project of US capitalism is to turn every place on the planet into the southern US. we are tomorrow’s people.

not to mention, many big developers aren’t paying cash to construct housing. they get a loan or establish a line of credit with or brokered via investors/banks/funds. the first rule of doing anything under capitalism is to use somebody else’s money to do it, and all those loans drawing on lines of credit ultimately leads back to the central bank anyway.
it’s a massive shell game to obscure the fact that workers do all the work to create the products and services and then have to pay their shitty wages right back to access the very things they create, just so maybe 2-3 million megarich assholes can roll around in piles of money and make an income for doing literally nothing.
landlords are among the most nakedly parasitic sectors of society, and even then we still get bootlicking bozos pretending they “provide” housing or are somehow responsible for the community infrastructure that makes living in the place where the house exists desirable.
that post was maybe 1500 words to summarize 100+ years of regional conflict with special attention on the last 10 years written in plain language. no special jargon or references to theoretical concepts. if that’s a “novel” for you, it definitely explains your grasp of this situation and affirms the critique that you are willfully ignorant and incapable of analysis beyond “russia bad.” and this is why people make fun of libs like you. many libs smugly dismiss conservatives as having “simple/childlike” worldviews and value systems. then they promptly adopt their own perfectly mirrored positions and petulantly stick their fingers in their ears like you’re doing here.
we eat captured solar energy and rely on tides & animal behavior which is connected to lunar cycles, the sun and the moon are what our efforts to measure time are hinged on at the macro level. the biggest problem is that the sun and moon do not sync up neatly in their movements. there are solar calendars and lunar calendars and attempts to merge them are difficult mathematically.
for example:
Since each lunation is approximately 29+1⁄2 days, it is common for the months of a lunar calendar to alternate between 29 and 30 days. Since the period of 12 such lunations, a lunar year, is 354 days, 8 hours, 48 minutes, 34 seconds (354.36707 days), purely lunar calendars are 11 to 12 days shorter than the solar year. In purely lunar calendars, which do not make use of intercalation, the lunar months cycle through all the seasons of a solar year over the course of a 33–34 lunar-year cycle.
this goes well with that meme talking about how like 70% of china’s youth want to be cosmonauts and scientists and like 70% of US youth want to be social media influencers and e-sports champions.
which, itself, goes well with that economist headline about how the former soviet bloc states have a “problem” where half the scientists are women due to the legacy of women in STEM making women feel “forced” to have careers in science.
if you haven’t heard the episode of Citations Needed (Episode 98: The Refined Sociopathy of The Economist), it is incredible. their archives are available but behind a massive paywall and when one sees some of their radioactive takes over the last 170 years with the power of hindsight, it becomes obvious why they did that.
you’ll never guess how the rational, reasonable liberals felt about the movement to abolish slavery!
i think one of the aspects of fascism that really freaks out liberals is that fascism is the return of the policies they (casually or explicitly) support overseas to their homes and applied to them and their neighbors. i was reading that post-colonial analysis excerpt about how hitler did to the core what “heroic” churchill and his predecessors had been doing to india and other peoples/nations for decades. libs avoid any material analysis of the core/periphery or fascism because the connections make it obvious libs have no trouble enjoying the fruits of evil done elsewhere to secure markets, but bringing those same methods of repression and control home is the unspeakably evil act of a madman.
the idea that their poorly-interrogated political project creates and necessitates the very monster they fear is too much to grapple with for some.
what a limited imagining of a robotic sex partner. not one of them is a shrieking metallic skull on the thorax+abdomen of a 700 lb scorpion with a tail that injects an adrenaline and DMT mix.
which is what we all want to come home to, am I right fellas?
