Ah yes, famously socially progressive Stalin

[–] [email protected] 53 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Stalin was a misunderstood man on the search for bolshevik boypussi

Yeah, the guy who thought a ~10 year break in genociding lgbtq people was “a bit much”.

Yeah. Tankies always forget you can't have socialism without democracy, and either no government or a government that is strictly from the bottom up, and fascists gladly play along with that facade as it works in their interests.

"Authoritarian communism" is an oxymoron.

And not an "emphasis" kind of oxymoron like "bittersweet" or "impossible solution", or a "poetic" kind like "living dead".
An "absolutely impossible" kind of oxymoron. like "married bachelor" or "squared circle".

“Authoritarian communism” is an oxymoron.

The definition of "Authoritarianism" seems to be bound up in the libertarian view of free markets versus unfree governments.

There's a book I like called The People's Republic of Walmart. It describes how much of the Command Economy practiced in the 60s and 70s by "authoritarian" socialist states was picked up and integrated into the corporate model in an effort to improve efficiency of supply chains and reduce the cost of industrial manufacturing. Walmart's vertical integration follows a model that any Socialist government would laud. It just hordes the surplus for shareholders, at the expense of its employment base.

When the Socialists were making cars in Yugoslavia with a highly efficient regional distribution of manufacturing and assembly, it was horrifying infringement on the rights of the business community. When Ford and Nissian picked up on these practices and imported them to the US and Japan, it was The Miracle of Free Market Innovation that delivered huge returns to investors.

Liberals love to cringe and wring their hands when they hear about Lenin's "Dictatorship of the Proletariat". After all, how can we be free if worker's council get to dictate our housing stock or our employment opportunities or our transit corridors or our retail inventory? But they're utterly blaise about living under an economy whose function is dictated by a handful of corporate boards and banking executives making all the same decisions because... freedom?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

Um... You do know what Lenin and the Bolsheviks did to the worker's councils right?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Soviets removed the "proletariat" from the dictatorship very quickly. About the same time when Lenin decided he didn't like losing elections or having any sort of political opposition whatsoever.

Alpha male, LOL. You know he has several restraining orders against him.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 month ago (5 children)

If you have to tell everyone, you're not it. Having said that, it must be a parody account. Tell me it is.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

From what I have seen in the past, that is unironically his account and yes, self proclamimed title.

But since every right-winger is a parody on some level, it might not even matter, because they do stuff like that either way...

If alpha and beta were an actual thing, putting alpha male in parenthesis next to your name would be the most beta thing you could do, lol.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Nick Adams once said on Twitter that Alpha males never have to announce that they are Alpha males, with (Alpha male) right there in his name. For the longest time, I refused to believe he wasn't a parody account. Then I looked into him, and the dude is 100% serious. Some people are just impossibly stupid.

This is the tweet I was thinking of, but while looking for it, I was reminded that he mentions his Alpha status all the fucking time.

If you have to tell people you’re an alpha male, then you’re not an alpha male.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

I joke with my girlfriend all the time about how 'I'M A MAN!'

Like yes, we get it - you are very insecure about the little guy in between your legs. Let's get those trans kids some rights so you can get some testosterone replacement. It's very easy, step one step two.

The (alpha male) got me. How the fuck does this guy take himself seriously?

This isn't the same guy saying that society is doomed because people don't take 7yos to Hooters anymore?

We've always used gender pronouns, dumbass. Or does it not use them?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (5 children)

Turks are the perfect alphas confirmed (we don't have gender in our language). He, she, it, all the same to us.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unlike the beta Chinese, who didn't have gendered pronouns in their language but made them up to appease Western betas smh my head.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Even the communists had to bend the knee to the gender police 😢

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unlike Romanian, which has gendered pronouns, adjectives, numbers and nouns

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

What are the genders of the numbers?

Okay... What's the deal with boneless wings? I've noticed guys looking at me different at Buffalo wild wings.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's "choosing the easy option" and "being soft". There's no deeper meaning that I can discern.

Evidently, "real men" choose "hardship" so they are ready when "hardship" chooses them?

Also I think the pictured "(Alpha Male)" account is intentional satire of the Tates of the world.

Real men pay extra for half the food and have to wipe there hands every 15 seconds so they can touch things without getting sauce everywhere.

Boneless is inherently superior because I love boobies and therefore only eat breast.

Nick Adams (gender in name) is declaring that he is one step form communism. .

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I feel like it starts with Xitter and ends with Nazism and Pederastry. Also the guy has a pronoun in ()...

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

It's the other way around.

X is a "if you build it, they will come" situation. They were already around, they were just too cowardly to come out of the woodwork into the open.

I saw the original version only yesterday afternoon. How did this lose 1/4 of its height and gain a bust of Stalin in such a short time?

Apparently, deboning your meat before eating it is not "manly". You have to chew the bones, like an "alpha wolf" or something.

It's small breaded chicken strips, fried, with a wings sauce.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

GOTTEM!

But seriously, it's like chicken wings, without the bones. I'd not seen them until I went to the USA years and years ago. Now I see them over here in the UK too. Couldn't say when they arrived here for sure though.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

One step above nuggets if you're lucky. Nuggets in Buffalo sauce at cheaper places.

Communists are sexy now?

Stalin would have, and possibly did, murder non-binary folk without hesitation.
