    The world can be condensed to two categories: ‘good’ people and ‘bad’ people. The only quality you need to have to be good is to serve to capitalist interest. Being a war criminal apparently doesn’t disqualify you, nor does being a massive abusive shit.

      the modern names are just a bunch of forgettables. Liberals don’t get just irrelevant to history they are. Stalin liberated a third of the world from capitalism, industrialized a peasant economy into the space age, and defeated the Nazis during the greatest war in human history, and who exactly is Andrew Tate again?

    Is DSA meant to be the Democratic Socialists of America? Besides not being “a person,” they aren’t exactly enthusiastic about anything other than being The New Young Democrats. Seriously, their commitment to electoralism and reform should make them stellar Good Guys^TM to this person.

    What is he getting at? “Think about it” implies that he’s making some sort of connection but there is no common thread between anybody in either section.

    Granted, if there was no team infighting. Team “Bad Guys” would absolutely stomp team “Good Guys” in a team deathmatch.

    “Myanmar generals” really epitomizing how online political “experts” don’t know jack shit about anything they talk about. If we’re great-manning this shit, how about a couple names, Mr. Pavlou?

      (This guy in particular probably threatened to bomb a Chinese embassy and got kicked out of his uni for harassing other students. Shocker!)

      Khamenei - Supreme Leader of Iran

      Viktor Orbán - Hungarian far-right politician and current Prime Minister of Hungary. He is a contrarian and nationalist that while critical of the West, only does so for racist, nationalist, and capitalistic reasons.

      General Mark Miley - US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Highest and most powerful leadership position in the US military behind the President.

      Joe Manchin - Fuck all bumbling Democratic House Representative that votes Republican every chance he gets. Many democrats blame him for tanking bills for healthcare, minimum wage, etc. He is a puppet controlled opposition that comes from a multi-billionaire energy corporation family. Basically an American Saudi Prince.

      Starmer - UK labour politican.
