Rockhill is really on point from the interviews I have seen and snipits I have read. I should probably read his books.

Based. When it comes to people of similar ideologies getting together 1+1<2. The confidence of knowing you are on the right path will encourage you to double or triple down. These dudes should become Best Bros Forever. Traoré will benefit immensely from Maduro's experience with securing gains from outside interference. I feel like Maduro could use a bit of encouragement to take the kid gloves off when dealing with domestic counter revolutionaries and I think Traoré is just the guy to encourage that.

Alternatively: "When you tell white imperialists to get the fuck out of your country"

China doesn't even stand up against imperialism in other nations and they still get called authoritarian.

I'm sure it might be ok on less contentious subjects but most of the time I end up on quora it is a dead end of reactionary garbage. Lots of the answers are conspiratorial, ahistorical, or just a twisted version of truth. Maybe 10% of the time I end up on quora I find an answer that is reasonable.

But that doesn't stop me from looking.

Exactly, I prefer outright fascists to crypto-fascists too. The only thing worse than a bad person is a bad person who can convince people they are good.

and anarchists have been so successful. Name one successful anarchist revolution.

This is the most ignorant thing I have read all day. What part of revolutionary socialism screams "use the state" to you?

I'd love to see pictures or video of the americans faces as they walk out. There is something cathartic about seeing disappointment on the faces of such horrible people.

But that's fine because it is done by Capitalists who are helping poor children afford food while teaching them a trade.

How I think this meeting will go:

China: are you going to drop the tariffs?

usa: we are prepared to consider it as part of the negotiations

China: Ok well, keep considering it and let us know when you change your mind.

Yeah. I wish so much there was something more I could do to make a difference. It feels like keeping hope is the only act of defiance I have left.

Accusations of forced labor in Xinjiang have never been substantiated in the decades they have been floating around. Yet companies are still being sanctioned even after extensive investigations. The entire "genocide" in Xinjiang was concocted by a nazi apologist and there is no evidence to back it up.

Publishing a story about a bunch of ngo grifters crying because they think maybe some solar panels might have been made in a place that they heard has slaves with no evidence of any of it is just pathetic. That isn't journalism.

 

Putin is a master troll.

Declaring a short unilateral ceasefire with the pretext of being a goodwill gesture is a good move. It shows Trump that Russia is serious about negotiations to bring the war to an end and to show that Russia isn't opposed to ceasefires in general. And it helps make the point that long term ceasefires with no agreements or monitoring aren't really ceasefires.

But.....

Declaring a unilateral ceasefire in celebration of the defeat of the nazi 3rd reich and he's asking the banderite neo-nazis to observe it? That is just a muah chef kiss. Fucking hilarious.
