I’m sure this season is going to make me renew my appreciation for how horrific the Sino Soviet split ultimately was

I’m generally positive on the PRC, especially in the modern day and in their early history. But damn was some of their foreign policy in the 70’s and 80’s awful.

My friends mom survived the Khmer Rouge and its like unbelievable to me that she's a relatively normal person today despite the trauma

Her dad's family fled Vietnam for Cambodia during the American invasion just to also get fucked during the Khmer Rouge

The crimes of American imperialism are never ending

The funny thing is, Cambodia fell first before South Vietnam did...

soypoint-1 I'm excited for this one. Pol Pot was such a weird bastardisation of left politics.

if someone with a sub wanted to drop a mega link on here that would be really cool

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I love Blowback, but I need to take regular breaks between episodes. I may get to this season in a year or two if I don't skip around.

[–] edge@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago

I stopped after the Mars Attacks episode of season 1. It's a really interesting show, but hearing about the horrid shit the US did just broke me.

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The trailer for this season was excellent

[–] HexReplyBot@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

This season's going to be really Interesting, that's for sure!

[–] imogen_underscore@hexbear.net 18 points 5 months ago (3 children)

they're not all dropping at once?

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago

S4 was released on a weekly schedule. I bet this will be the same.

[–] poppy_apocalypse@hexbear.net 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I got a 25 dollar annual subscription to the show on Spotify. I have access to all the eps and bonuses for all seasons. I think someone linked all the content here for last season to share. If I knew how I would do it, although I certainly don't mind giving up some coin for quality slop

[–] imogen_underscore@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago

yeah i can't afford it rn so hoping someone will drop a mega link on here lol

[–] GVAGUY3@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago

They drop all at once if you subscribe. $25 a year

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Oh it's a podcast, I was hoping from the trailer it was an anime about Nixon and Kissinger using blood sacrifice to summon demons.

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago

Demons like Pol Pot?

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 16 points 5 months ago

It's a really good podcast.

[–] vovchik_ilich@hexbear.net 13 points 5 months ago

Why would they want to summon themselves?

[–] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

I still haven't listened to season 4, its on my to do list. Does anyone have the link to the full season? I know it got posted here way back, but I was kinda going through some shit at the time and didn't keep it.

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 7 points 5 months ago

Link to all prior seasons with bonuses

[–] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

It's on Spotify and iHeartRadio. Don't know how it is with unpaid but the full season is on both.
