I don't want to hear about how your Wehrmacht soldiers are just following orders. Fuck the US Army and fuck the troops, too. Death to AmeriKKKa, death to "Israel", death to the west.

If they wanted to live, they shouldn't have signed up to kill people for the empire. Instead of following orders, they can refuse them. Yankee nationalists cry about it in the comments.

Guess at least it's good to see there isn't any difference between Americans and Russians after all.
LeninWeave@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 157d
The difference is that Russia isn't trying to control the entire world. Hence "the empire".
Edit: America is the primary source of suffering in the world, along with its allies. I don't really care about Russia and bringing it up is a weak deflection.

The only conflict that matters is the class conflict. Everything else is a distraction. Eat the rich.

This is phrasemongering class reductionism. The principle contradiction in the world right now is imperialism, which the US Empire is at the head of.

I'm not disagreeing with the opinion that imperialism is one of the biggest large-scale problems facing humanity, and that the US is the current worst offender.
I'm just pointing out that at the root of imperialism are a few powerful people attempting to rule over the rest of us. Tech-feudalism in the digital world is another huge problem, as is the rise of fascism. And they all come from class warfare, at least in my humble opinion.
But I am also not pretending to be as informed on history and current events as many other here, and I am no attempting to lecture anyone as if I know better. That would just be decisive and counterproductive.

The roots of imperialism are in the monopoly stage of capitalism. It isn't because a few bad individuals exist, it's a material process.

Great slogan unfortunately not how it works in the modern reality of imperialism and neocolonialism, the class struggle can only truly begin after the premier contradiction of national liberation has been resolved.

I agree, I just like to remind people what the end goal is.

It's crazy to cry about a school full of Iranian kids getting blown up but laugh at a base of 28 year olds trying to escape poverty who are going through the same thing. Did we also magically forget about Iran killing all those protesters? You all are so divided and engrossed by political parties that you refuse to see the human aspect of this shit.
Getting desert storm v2 before GTA 6 btw

Yes. People are more sympathetic toward LITERAL CHILDREN than 28 year olds who signed up to be a soldier and HELPED CARRY OUT the murder of said children. You figured out basic human emotion and empathy, congrats.

Its isnt crazy at all, one side are innocent kids and the other signed up to rape and kill them for money

This reads like satire, how are you for real
SupraMario@lemmy.world · -38 pts · 157d
It's hilarious when you tankies from the west, sit in your western built basements, raging about the west on your western tech....just move. I'll buy you the plane ticket, russia is dying for people to move there. You and cowbee both.

Made in China
Was your brain surgically removed as a child?
Why did you pick Russia over China, Vietnam, Laos, DPRK? Russia isn't socialist and there is critical support for them at best.
Also preempting this I am Chinese, I live in a Chinese built house, typing on a Chinese phone, does that make my criticism of the genocidal imperialist Euro-Amerikan empire more valid?
SupraMario@lemmy.world · -13 pts · 157d
Yep, kinda sounds like your utopia abuses it's people....
I'm not the one who spouts bullshit propaganda all day long.
Lol just giving you options. You're more than welcome to ask for a DPRK ticket as well... I'm sure they'll give you a ticket to die in a meat way in Ukraine.
Nope, just makes it even more hilarious because you're still here in the west when it sounds like you can naturally move back to the warm welcome of the CCP.

I'm in China dipshit what part of Chinese made house did you not understand.
Actually lmao one of the funniest things I've heard in a while.
It was so abusive when the government eradicated poverty, invested hugely in a world class public transport system, electrified and modernised rural villages.
You don't know shit and should shut the fuck up. Chauvinist ass crackkker. Can't wait to piss on your empires grave when you return to being a serf to your pedo overlords. 🤣 👉

The funniest thing about these types of people is that they're so completely unable to conceptualize the existence of people outside "the west" that you can tell them "I'm Chinese and I live in a Chinese house" and they will still insist you're "in the west".

Don't have a basement, but either way it's more and more obvious that the only path forward for humanity in general and the people living in the US Empire in particular is global socialism. To make that happen, the US Empire needs to fall, and ideally a socialist state needs to take its place. This is the number 1 historical task for the working classes in the imperial core.
That said, my spouse and I have considered the possibility of moving to the PRC eventually, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards right now.

I don't blame anyone for trying to get out. When I was younger, I always thought I'd get out at the first sign of trouble, but now that I'm older, I've realized I can't bring myself to. Even if I could escape, I'd be leaving friends and family at the mercy of whatever comes next. I don't know that I'll survive the next couple of decades, but I'm trying to make peace with it.

And you think china is a socialist utopia... again, I'll buy you a plane ticket. It sounds like they'll take care of you just fine since western nations are just shit holes.
Cowbee@lemmy.ml · 10 pts · 157d
China's certainly a socialist country, but not a utopia. I really don't think you know what you're talking about, every word you say seems to be against a strawman.

We're just exercising Western freedom of speech.
Russia's not socialist. Either you still think Russia is the USSR or you're insinuating every socialist is apparently a Russian shill.
This might surprise you, but immigrating to socialist countries like China, Cuba, Vietnam, etc from the West is not as simple "just buy a plane ticket there." They're not exactly crazy about a bunch of Westerners moving there after all the West has done to them. You don't get to "just move" to whatever country you want, you have engage with their immigration system, get a visa, get a work permit, etc etc, you know, the same things immigrants to the West need to do.
Even if you do all that, you're still not entitled to immigrate to a country just because you want to or because you ideologically align with them. You generally need to have a skill that the country you're immigrating to has a demand for and can't fill with its own population before they'll let you move there, you know, exactly like how immigration to the West works. I'm sure there are MANY people here that would love to live in a socialist country. Physically being able to go there is not the barrier for them.
orc_princess@lemmy.ml · 10 pts · 157d
I own very little, but it's all made in China or locally. And yes, if I was living in the core and able to move, I probably would move.

I’ll take you up on that. A ticket to Scotland is much cheaper and I can get citizenship there. Put up or shut up, get me out of this stupid fucking country and I’ll stay gone. We both win.
