ok thanks for the the filler, warhammer 40k looks wild.

I unfortunately know nothing about warhammer 40k. I guess orks are green and supremacists?

I mean that's speciesist ideology in display. That's one of the most common argument I encounter when discussing anti-speciesim. Humans can do whatever they want to other species because they are the best. Along with "How dare you make analogies between human and non-human suffering"

Yes that was my criticism as well when I read this report a few weeks ago. In their methodology and questions they never define what is "democracy" letting everyone answering these use their own definition.

The most important metric is whether the government is serving the people, listening to their needs and swiftly implementing those.

I always indulge reading comments on online mainstream news in my country. You can always read the most fascist and stupid takes on any given article.

Lmao nazis always readily recognize the US is at its root a genocidal, xenophobic project. The issue is these ghouls think it’s a great thing. They also don’t realize that what stripped them of their "culture" is not immigration but capitalism.

Thanks for this write up, it actually clarified a lot of things for me, even related to Marxism directly.

I read books slowly to educate myself on this subject but I always struggle to incorporate it in a bigger understanding as I don't have a structured study course helping me link up knowledge of these books between them

Got it. If I get some free time I might dig around a bit to learn more as I am not that familiar with Russian politics. Unfortunately as I can’t speak Russian, not sure I’ll find anything worthwhile

Thanks for the resource, the article dates from 1997. Do you have a more recent article on them or would you say not a lot changed inside the party in the past 28 years?

Mélenchon in France and his party is doing a lot of work considering the insanely reactionary politics currently ongoing in his country.

Putin does not only seem to be a capitalist. He's 100% a capitalist, he just happens to be from a country the US hates. More than a capitalist, putin is a reactionary asshole doing exactly the same kind of shit far right politicians in the rest of the world are trying to do, plunder all they can while blaming minorities for it.

Furthermore, I would argue Milei and Trump are not really going against the status quo, they just removed the veneer of "civility" liberals love to tout while doing the same shit.
