Yeah, I was following them for a bit there and I would see some weird stuff but I tried to brush it off as a little blip. But it has gotten worse and worse to the point where there’s so going around it, I truly feel like they’re a patsoc, especially with how they reacted to criticism for posting that weird political compass.

This is my last week of semester 4! I have two finals, one for history and one for polisci. The history one is a take-home, open book, exam and it lasts two days—I have to write two essays; the polisci one is in-person and on Friday, I have to write two essays for that one too. After this I am free for two months and then back to the grind in September. The professor of my genocide history class from last semester is going to be my prof. for this new class so thats cool… hopefully it goes well 😬

Anyway, I think I’ll try spending July and august reading theory.

Oh every time Canada is brought up as a “gotcha” I roll my eyes. This godforsaken country has been involved in pretty much every military conflict around the world. If the US was there then you can guarantee Canada was too. So, yes, Canada does run on political violence; foreign and domestic.

Funny meme but it also makes me so sad for LGBTQ Ukrainians

Star War is popular and people think Zelensky is a hero, so imagery like this is seen as relatable rather than worrying. "The guy fighting the evil Russians likes Star Wars? He’s just like me!“ People wont realize how bad this actually is until way after this war is over, it’s unfortunate but thats just how things go it seems.

Yes, but have you considered that Russia is still worse? /s

Yes! Not even a Russian guy specifically (which would’ve still been bad, don’t get me wrong), but a Soviet specifically who could’ve been anything (Russian, Ukrainian, Georgian, etc.). It’s a terrible shirt that you can actually buy for around 11 bucks.

That’s interesting. But even if most of them were soldiers, isn’t an astronaut still a “civilian” job? Either way this shirt is super cursed and the fact they didn’t even make the CCCP person a Star Wars character is just even more cringe.

Also depicting the death/killing of an astronaut; not a soldier, a civilian. Very cool.

I guess they just took the iconography that looked the coolest rather than what was accurate to the source material.

He did wear a shirt like that:

It literally says “come to the dark side,” bffr

It’s either Star Wars or Harry Potter, every fucking time. I don’t get it. Is pop culture the only way people can understand geopolitics? Embarrassing…

Also, I think we all have one or two traits that may be similar to others, whether they’re good or evil, doesn’t mean we’re ideologically the same. I love dogs and apparently Hitler did to, does that mean we’re on the same page?

My point is that comparisons like this are asinine and mean absolutely nothing. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Maybe the Russian propaganda was the friends we made along the way

Is it Russian propaganda if thats literally what Lindsay Graham said?

Also, the Taliban?

Yeah, so I don’t believe Pamphlets made this compass based on their replies, but said replies are not helping their reputation…

I wonder, if Biden did declare martial law, if it would cause civil war to break out…

The mice are comrades!

Works well for me! I can always rely on your posts to get my news on the world.

Wait, is Texas pulling a Quebec?
