Hey it's the 70th Anniversary of the Hungarian Revolution.
Thought I'd plug this again.

Yeah but, I'm not aligned with 95% of his beliefs. He's effectively a social Democrat and his efforts to work within the system are ones that I find impotent.

Not that anyone asked for it, but my take on the Mamdani Palestine protests yesterday is that it’s perfectly natural and reasonable for groups like Within Our Lifetime to protest Mamdani (their focus is on Palestine, their job is to force political actors to care about Palestine) but because a DSA socialist has never held a position of this high prominence before, a lot of people on the left are squeamish about the concept of not playing for the sake of the team. Mamdani himself very clearly has no idea what to do when he’s challenged by his leftward flank, who he probably imagines as his base. This will only be a bigger issue going forward.
And yes, many of the slogans used at the protest scream of overzealousness, but that’s how these things tend to go, particularly when you’re mostly made up of leftist college students
My thoughts on this whole thing are the same I've been saying for a while.
Electoral Politics are not going to save us and we've much more chance of getting shit done through our collective power instead of just pushing it into the hands of one guy.

Um, sorry did I just dream this up but did Kane Parsons not get accused of date dope raping someone recently?
I swear to christ I saw this?
You can say what you want about NATO's bombings but don't try and play the victim card when your forces carried out shit like Meje.
Serbia's President Aleksandar Vučić:
Do you know, esteemed friends, what was in fact the reason, the sole official and formal reason for the attack on the territory of the Republic of Serbia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia carried out by 19 NATO countries?
You will not believe it. They told us that they had attacked a sovereign, free, and independent country in order to prevent a potential humanitarian disaster.
The humanitarian disaster did not occur, and I have still not managed to hear or see where a similar example has happened anywhere in the world.
Yes when your 'workers state' has already done conquest for 500 years for you already then it's fairly easy to say that.
Was it democratic centralism that got you there? Or was it historical happenstance that enabled just the right circumstances for you to gain insubordination?
You can try and make excuses all you want under the guise of nuance but at the end of the day the top 10 massacres by Serbs added up to ~20,000 deaths. The highest being 8,000.
The highest Croat-Bosniak massacre of Serbs was 181.
What does this info suggest?
