  • I agree, but they got the translation wrong. This is interesting because this is not uncommon due to the dialectical differences between Russian and Mandarin.

    When you listen to the actual audio clip, you will understand that it is said “one becomes child again”. It’s a sly dig at aging brains that doesn’t translate well when done literally. The nineteen eighty nine authoritarian response and slaughter of thousands of innocent civilians in response to the tiananmen square protests and xi being a winnie the pooh knob head is hilarious you authcino bootlicker if you don’t understand the cultural idiom component.









  • We’ve been hurtling past brightline after brightline for decades. Now it is so flagrantly obvious, can it get any more obvious than multiple Goose-step Salutes, but more importantly the propaganda spin to play them off and justify it as not being a disqualifying action. They used to have to dog whistle their zeal for bigotry and xenophobia.

    The question is, what the actual fuck are we going to do about it?

    Organize? Direct action? That magic word that happens when you mash up insurance and male arousal? The DNC would not support or pardon folks involved in that effort, and the corporate media would absolutely vilify it.

    The answer is obvious, with historical underpinning, although we still have to figure out how to “televise the revolution” in this day and age.



  • People simply can’t/won’t hear it. Society is clinging to any doubt or contrary viewpoint (and oil companies and their paid shills provide plenty) because it is difficult to envision the delicate and finite nature of our situation. Triggered methane releases are currently ratcheting up the warming, you can’t refreeze the permafrost, it rapidly cooks the planet.

    No one wants to believe it, but this is the end unless dramatic changes are made. Having children, at this juncture, with what we know, is profoundly selfish. And folks cannot accept this, let alone, the changes that must be made, systemically, for society to survive.
